Provenance

Where it came from

Released in 2023 as part of The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth, this card reflects the expansion's ambitious goal to integrate J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendarium into the mechanics of Magic: The Gathering. As a rare creature, the card depicts Boromir in his capacity as the Warden of the Tower, serving as a tactical piece that emphasizes his role as a protector of Gondor. The set was designed to capture the emotional weight and iconic moments of the narrative, bridging the gap between traditional fantasy tabletop gaming and high-fantasy literature.

The artwork was commissioned from artist Colin Boyer, who sought to capture the stoic, burdened intensity of Boromir during his time in Minas Tirith. Boyer’s illustration focuses on the character's traditional Gondorian attire and the solemn atmosphere of his duty. Upon release, the card was well-received by players for its thematic accuracy and utility in game mechanics, often noted for how effectively its design reflects the character’s self-sacrificing nature in the source material.
