Where it came from
Affa Protector was released in early 2016 as part of the Oath of the Gatewatch expansion for Magic: The Gathering. As a common-rarity creature in the Zendikar block, it was designed to support the set's mechanical focus on 'support'—a keyword ability that allows a creature to place +1/+1 counters on other creatures on the battlefield. The card reflects the themes of the Zendikar plane, depicting a Kor soldier defending the landscape against the Eldrazi invasion.
The artwork was illustrated by David Palumbo, a noted fantasy artist known for his dramatic lighting and atmospheric style. His interpretation of the Affa Protector emphasizes the protective, stalwart nature of the Kor race, using sharp, clean lines to convey the character's readiness for combat. While intended primarily as a functional piece for the limited format of the set, the card is recognized for its thematic consistency with the larger narrative arc of the Gatewatch's struggle to save the Zendikar plane.
