Where it came from
Drag the Canal was released in 2024 as part of the Murders at Karlov Manor set for Magic: The Gathering. Set in the plane of Ravnica, the narrative follows a series of high-profile detective stories and mysteries occurring within the cityscape. Mechanically, the card was designed to support the set's focus on investigation, graveyard interaction, and blue-black color identity, offering players a way to cycle through their deck while managing resources in the graveyard.
The artwork for this card was provided by illustrator Veli Nyström, who captured the grim, noir-inspired atmosphere central to the Murders at Karlov Manor aesthetic. The visual composition emphasizes the dark, industrial waterways of Ravnica, reinforcing the set's thematic commitment to classic detective tropes and the tension of a city hiding its secrets beneath the surface. It was received by the player base as a functional utility tool within the Limited and Commander formats, fitting well into control-oriented strategies.
