Card face

What it does

First strike (This creature deals combat damage before creatures without first strike.)

Protection from white (This creature can't be blocked, targeted, dealt damage, or enchanted by anything white.)

Battle doesn't need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don't ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don't ask why I fight.

Provenance

Where it came from

The Black Knight card was originally released as part of the Alpha set in 1993, designed by Christopher Rush for the inaugural Magic: The Gathering collection. The card was conceived as a quintessential creature of the game's early fantasy aesthetic, characterized by its protection from white, a mechanic that established the color identity of black mana as a disruptive, resilient force in competitive play.

The 30th Anniversary Edition printing, released in 2022, serves as a commemorative reproduction of these foundational cards. While it utilizes the classic artwork by Rush, the edition was produced as a non-tournament legal set intended for collectors to experience the original 1993 card designs with updated card backs and modern foiling techniques, reflecting three decades of the game's evolution from a niche hobby to a global phenomenon.
