Provenance

Where it came from

Engineered Explosives was originally designed by the Magic: The Gathering development team as a versatile artifact for the Fifth Dawn expansion, released in 2004. The card was conceived as a modular tool for players to manage board states by destroying permanents with specific mana costs, reflecting the set's mechanical focus on sunburst and color-intensive artifacts. Its design remains a staple in competitive formats due to this inherent flexibility and efficiency.

The Kaladesh Inventions version, numbered 36, was released in 2016 as part of the Masterpiece Series. These cards featured distinct, ornate foil treatments and unique artwork by Igor Kieryluk, designed to evoke the aesthetic of the Kaladesh plane’s steampunk-inspired inventions. This particular printing was highly sought after by collectors for its aesthetic departure from the original card frame while maintaining its functional utility.
