Attacking creatures you control have double strike.

Where it came from
Blade Historian was released as part of the Strixhaven: School of Mages set in 2021, specifically appearing as a promotional card for the set. Designed for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game, it reflects the academic and magical aesthetic of the Strixhaven university setting, which draws inspiration from classic campus environments imbued with high-fantasy elements.
The card was illustrated by Victor Adame Minguez, who sought to capture the dynamic, combat-oriented nature of the card's ability to bolster allies. Within the game's mechanics, the Historian serves as a thematic bridge between the lore of the Lorehold college, which focuses on historical discovery and martial prowess, and the aggressive playstyle common in white and red color-aligned decks.
