Provenance

Where it came from

Cytoplast Root-Kin was released in May 2006 as part of the Dissension expansion for Magic: The Gathering. As a rare creature card representing the Simic Combine, it embodies the set's central focus on bio-engineering and the manipulation of +1/+1 counters through the Graft mechanic. This ability allows the creature to move counters onto other units, reflecting the guild's theme of adaptive evolution within the urban sprawl of the plane of Ravnica.

The card features artwork by Christopher Moeller, who captured the creature's organic, overgrown aesthetic typical of Simic designs. Moeller's illustration emphasizes the fusion of plant and animal characteristics, aiming for a visual style that feels both grotesque and naturally powerful. Upon its release, the card was recognized for its utility in limited formats, where its ability to manipulate counters provided players with significant tactical flexibility during combat.
