Where it came from
Essence of Orthodoxy was released in 2023 as part of the Magic: The Gathering expansion set March of the Machine, which depicted a multiverse-spanning conflict against the Phyrexians. Within the game's lore, the card represents the rigid, defensive capabilities of the Phyrexians as they attempted to cement their hold over various planes, serving as a tactical reinforcement for players utilizing the set's unique mechanics.
The artwork was created by Oriana Menendez, who utilized a stark, metallic aesthetic to reflect the oppressive nature of the Phyrexian aesthetic. The design emphasizes themes of unity and assimilation, common motifs in the visual identity of the New Phyrexia faction, and was well-received by players for its thematic consistency and its practical application in limited and casual formats.
