Where it came from
Borrowed Hostility was originally released in the 2016 Magic: The Gathering set Eldritch Moon. Designed as a versatile instant, the card reflects the set's central narrative theme: the cosmic horror of the plane of Innistrad being corrupted by the Eldrazi titan Emrakul. The artwork, illustrated by Igor Kieryluk, captures this unsettling transformation, depicting a character whose physical form is being warped and mutated by eldritch influence.
The card was later included in 'The List', a rotating selection of reprints curated by Wizards of the Coast for Set Boosters. Its inclusion in this format provides players with access to older, mechanically unique cards that fit the aesthetic or mechanical identity of current expansions. The design was praised for its utility in limited formats, allowing players to manipulate combat outcomes while emphasizing the aggressive, body-horror-centric mechanics prevalent throughout the Shadows over Innistrad block.
