Where it came from
Altar's Reap was originally introduced in the Innistrad expansion in 2011 as a black common spell, reflecting the set's gothic horror themes of sacrifice and dark bargains. The version featured in the 2016 Duel Decks: Nissa vs. Ob Nixilis was selected to represent the mechanical synergy of Ob Nixilis's deck, which focuses on accumulating power through the sacrifice of smaller creatures or tokens.
The artwork for this particular printing retains the original illustration by Dave Kendall. Kendall is known for his atmospheric and gritty fantasy style, which captures the morbid nature of the card by depicting a figure drawing forbidden energy from a ritualistic sacrifice. Within the context of the duel deck, the card functions as an efficient draw engine, emphasizing the ruthless philosophy of the planeswalker Ob Nixilis.
