Provenance

Where it came from

Terror was first printed in the original 1993 Magic: The Gathering base set, quickly becoming a defining staple of the black color identity. As an instant that destroys non-artifact, non-black creatures, it provided an efficient answer to the game's creature-heavy strategies, securing its status as a foundational piece of removal for decades of competitive play.

The 30th Anniversary Edition, released in 2022 to commemorate the game's long history, serves as a retrospective tribute to these iconic cards. The art for this specific print maintains the dark, classic aesthetic associated with the card's original identity, designed to evoke nostalgia while functioning within the high-fidelity card frames used for the anniversary celebration.
