Provenance

Where it came from

Curse of Obsession was released in 2021 as part of the Innistrad: Midnight Hunt Commander set. This cycle of 'Curse' enchantments was designed to integrate into the gothic horror themes of the Innistrad plane, focusing on player-focused mechanics that reward interaction and deck acceleration during multiplayer games. The card serves as a thematic continuation of the classic Curse mechanic, which attaches to a player to influence the game state dynamically.

The card’s illustration was crafted by artist Lie Setiawan, who utilized a moody, atmospheric aesthetic to capture the spirit of an ancient, binding enchantment. The design intended to evoke feelings of encroaching madness and greed, aligning with the set's broader narrative of the Eldritch-inspired terror surrounding the transformation of the plane. It was well-received by the Commander community for its ability to generate consistent value while encouraging aggressive gameplay patterns.
