Where it came from
Deeproot Elite was released in January 2018 as part of the Rivals of Ixalan expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The set focused on a high-fantasy world heavily inspired by Mesoamerican cultures and the age of exploration, centering on a conflict between various factions, including the Merfolk of the River Heralds. This card was designed as a thematic centerpiece for Merfolk-based strategies, mechanically rewarding players for playing other creatures of the same tribe in a way that reinforced the cooperative, expansionist nature of the Ixalan Merfolk.
The artwork was created by illustrator Svetlin Velinov, whose contribution to the game is known for capturing the vibrant, lush, and slightly dangerous atmosphere of Ixalan's jungles. Velinov’s design for the Elite reflects the Merfolk's distinct aesthetic in this set—blending traditional aquatic elements with organic, jungle-themed regalia. Upon release, the card was well-received by players focusing on tribal synergies in the Standard format, valued for its ability to quickly scale creatures and create board presence in aggressive Merfolk decks.
