Where it came from
Afflict was originally printed in the Urza's Legacy expansion in 1999 and was later reprinted as part of the Tenth Edition core set in 2007. As a common black spell, it was designed to provide players with a targeted removal option that also provided a small deck-thinning effect by allowing the player to draw a card, reflecting the color's thematic reliance on sacrifice and dark efficiency.
The Tenth Edition artwork for the card was created by Greg Staples, who moved away from the more grotesque aesthetics of the original printing toward a more atmospheric, shadow-laden illustration. This iteration of the core set was notable for being the first to feature the modern card frame with black borders, which helped define the visual standard for Magic: The Gathering throughout the late 2000s and was generally well-received by the player base for its readability and clean presentation.
