Where it came from
Assassinate was first introduced to the Magic: The Gathering card pool in the Time Spiral set, but this specific version was released in the Planechase 2012 supplement. This release was part of a broader initiative by Wizards of the Coast to expand the multiplayer format, providing players with pre-constructed decks themed around the chaotic, planar-shifting nature of the multiverse.
The artwork for this iteration was created by Kev Walker, a prominent illustrator in the hobby known for his moody, high-contrast style. Walker's depiction focuses on the visceral moment of a targeted strike, utilizing dark shadows and sharp lines to emphasize the lethality of the spell. As a common-rarity sorcery, the card was designed as an efficient, straightforward tool for players to remove tapped creatures from the battlefield.
