Where it came from
The Cartouche of Ambition was originally released in the 2017 Magic: The Gathering set Amonkhet, a block inspired by Ancient Egyptian mythology. Designed as part of a cycle of enchantments that reward players for enchanting specific creature types, the card embodies the brutal, hierarchical nature of the plane's society, where ambition is encouraged but ultimately serves the dark machinations of the dragon planeswalker Nicol Bolas.
The card’s illustration by Magali Villeneuve captures the aesthetic of the Amonkhet setting with its gilded, desert-themed art deco style. Upon its release, it was recognized by players for its efficiency in Limited formats, where the combination of a power boost and the removal of a creature's ability to block made it a potent tool for aggressive decks. It later appeared on The List, a curated selection of reprints that Wizards of the Coast includes in various booster packs to allow modern players to encounter past favorites.
