Where it came from
Approach of the Second Sun was originally released in the 2017 Magic: The Gathering set Amonkhet, designed by Wizards of the Coast to anchor the block's Egyptian-inspired mythology. The card depicts a central narrative moment in the plane's history, where the inhabitants of the city of Naktamun anticipate the return of their god-pharaoh, a vision masterfully illustrated by Noah Bradley. Bradley utilized a palette of golden sands and radiant light to evoke the awe-inspiring, yet ominous, nature of the prophecy.
The card subsequently appeared on The List, a curated selection of reprints inserted into Set Boosters that allows players to discover iconic cards from the game's expansive history. By including it in The List, Wizards of the Coast maintained the card's availability for fans of control-style archetypes, who value its unique alternative win condition. Its design, which requires a player to cast the spell twice to win the game, is widely regarded as a clever mechanical representation of the cyclical nature of the Amonkhet narrative.
