Double strike

Where it came from
Boros Swiftblade first appeared in the 2005 Ravnica: City of Guilds expansion as an embodiment of the Boros Legion's militant ethos. This card was specifically designed to showcase the double strike keyword, a signature combat ability associated with red and white mana. It was illustrated by Greg Staples, who rendered the character in heavy armor to reflect the disciplined, martial aesthetic of the Ravnica plane.
The 2012 Planechase reprinting, which carries the collector number 82, brought this classic creature into a supplemental product designed for casual, multiplayer chaos. By reintroducing older cards into these themed decks, Wizards of the Coast allowed newer players to experience early Ravnica mechanics while providing long-time collectors with updated versions of established staples. The artwork remains true to the original, maintaining the character's role as a swift, aggressive sentinel.
