Where it came from
Distract the Guards was released in 2024 as part of the Magic: The Gathering Universes Beyond set themed around the Assassin's Creed franchise. Designed to mechanically represent the stealth-based gameplay loop of the video game series, the card functions as a sorcery that allows players to exert influence over their opponent's board state. This set was created to bridge the gap between traditional tabletop strategy and the historical narratives established by Ubisoft, integrating iconic franchise mechanics into the game's established ruleset.
The card features artwork by Torgeir Fjereide, who worked to capture the visceral, high-stakes atmosphere characteristic of the Assassin's Creed aesthetic. By focusing on the interplay of shadow and tactical redirection, Fjereide aimed to mirror the clandestine operations performed by the series' protagonists. The design was received by the player community as a thematic representation of the 'distraction' mechanic central to the source material, reinforcing the card's utility as a tool for creating openings during gameplay.
