Where it came from
Algae Gharial was originally printed in the Alara block expansion Shards of Alara in 2008, designed as a common creature for the Jund shard, a landscape characterized by its harsh, predator-heavy ecosystem. The card utilizes the 'persist' mechanic, which highlights the brutal survivalist nature of the environment by allowing the creature to return to the battlefield after dying, albeit in a weakened state.
The 2015 Modern Masters printing, collector number 137, brought the card back into circulation as part of a curated set designed to provide a high-power drafting experience for players. The artwork, provided by Mark Zug, captures the reptilian, swamp-dwelling nature of the creature, emphasizing its camouflage and predatory intent, a style for which Zug is well-regarded within the community for his grounded, visceral depictions of fantasy wildlife.
