Where it came from
The Chaos Orb was originally released in the Limited Edition Alpha set of Magic: The Gathering in 1993, designed by Richard Garfield. As one of the game's earliest artifacts, its unique mechanics—which required players to physically toss the card onto the play area to destroy target permanents—became a defining, if controversial, piece of the game's experimental infancy.
The Collector's Edition version was produced in late 1993 as a non-tournament-legal souvenir set. Unlike the original, these cards feature squared corners and gold-foil stamping on the reverse side. The artwork for the Chaos Orb, illustrated by Christopher Rush, depicts a swirling, energetic vessel that remains an iconic visual representation of early Magic aesthetics.
