Provenance

Where it came from

Divine Deflection was introduced in the 2012 Magic: The Gathering set Avacyn Restored. The set was designed around the theme of the archangel Avacyn returning to the plane of Innistrad to restore balance to a world plagued by supernatural horrors, with the card's mechanics reflecting the protective and retaliatory nature of her church.

The artwork was provided by Steve Prescott, a prolific contributor to the game known for his dynamic character illustrations. Prescott chose a perspective that emphasizes the ethereal power of the angel’s protection, focusing on the redirection of incoming magical energy. The card was received by players as a tactical utility spell, valued for its versatility in both mitigating damage and punishing aggressive opponents.
