Where it came from
Earthquake was originally printed in the Alpha set in 1993, cementing itself as a foundational red sorcery within the Magic: The Gathering ecosystem. By the time it was included in the Commander 2017 'Draconic Domination' deck, the card had been established for over two decades as a versatile tool for dealing direct damage to all ground-based creatures and players, making it a functional staple for decks capable of managing board states through aggressive board wipes.
The Commander 2017 version features artwork by Adrian Smith, whose gritty, high-contrast style has defined the aesthetic of many iconic fantasy creatures and spells. Smith’s illustration for this printing leans into the chaotic, elemental nature of the card, utilizing his signature detailed line work to capture the sudden violence of a seismic shift. This edition was well-received by players for both its tactical utility in multiplayer formats and the inclusion of Smith's evocative, textured interpretation of the classic spell.
