Corpse Explosion

Description

Designed by Greg Staples, this promotional card features a mana cost of {1}{B}{R} and a mana value of 3. Players cast this spell by exiling a creature card from their graveyard as an additional cost, dealing damage equal to that card's power to each creature and each planeswalker on the battlefield. The card's flavor text includes a quote from Calvey, a funeral director, reading "Well, that's one way to scatter her ashes." As a promotional release, this card holds a distinct place in the Streets of New Capenna era for collectors of Magic: The Gathering trading card game items. The foil treatment adds a reflective quality to the card surface, distinguishing it from standard print runs. Collectors who appreciate the black and red color identity may seek out this card number to round out their subset collections. The gameplay mechanic allows for strategic graveyard interaction, making it a functional piece for certain deck constructions while remaining a desirable add-on for casual players. The card's unique treatment and promotional status make it a notable component for those tracking the 2022 releases. By focusing on the concrete details of the set, card number, and artistic contribution, collectors can evaluate the item based on its catalog identity rather than subjective condition assessments. This approach ensures that every copy, regardless of its individual preservation state, is understood within the context of the broader Streets of New Capenna Promos ecosystem.
