Where it came from
Copper Carapace was originally released in the 2011 Scars of Mirrodin expansion, representing the intersection of organic life and metallic artifice central to the plane of Mirrodin. Designed as an Equipment card that provides a power boost while simultaneously hindering the equipped creature by forcing it to attack, the card explores the flavor of 'living metal' consuming its host. Its inclusion in the 2015 Modern Masters set served to bolster the set's artifact-heavy theme, providing players with a recurring tool for Limited formats.
The artwork was created by Igor Kieryluk, whose illustrations for the Scars of Mirrodin block were lauded for capturing the unsettling, jagged aesthetic of the Phyrexians and the corrupted Mirran landscape. The design focuses on the visual transition of the carapace overtaking the creature, emphasizing the theme of assimilation. Within the Modern Masters 2015 collection, the card maintained its original illustration, serving as a functional piece of equipment that rewarded players for managing the risk of the 'must-attack' drawback.
