Where it came from
Approach of the Second Sun was released in 2017 as part of the Amonkhet expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The card was designed as a rare sorcery that serves as an alternate win condition, requiring a player to cast it twice to secure a victory. This mechanic was intended to evoke the thematic dread and religious fanaticism of the set's Egyptian-inspired plane, where the citizens of Naktamun awaited the return of their god-pharaoh.
The artwork was commissioned from illustrator Noah Bradley, who aimed to capture the massive scale and oppressive beauty of the setting. Bradley utilized his signature style of sweeping, atmospheric lighting to depict the celestial bodies looming over the city's architecture. The card was received by the player community as a distinct build-around challenge, becoming a staple in control-oriented deck archetypes during its tenure in standard play.
