Where it came from
Etchings of the Chosen was released in 2019 as part of the Modern Horizons set, an innovative product designed by Wizards of the Coast specifically for the Modern format. Unlike standard sets, Modern Horizons bypassed the typical legalities of Standard play, allowing designers to introduce new cards and iconic reprints that directly entered the Modern card pool. The set served as a love letter to Magic's long history, utilizing mechanics from across the game's lifespan to create complex synergies for veteran players.
The card was illustrated by Chuck Lukacs, a prolific artist known for his distinct, textured style that often evokes classical motifs and weathered surfaces. In this piece, Lukacs focuses on the thematic elements of tribal synergy, depicting the visual markers of a ritualistic sect. The design intent was to provide an enchantment that rewards players for focusing on specific creature types, fitting into the set's broader goal of empowering tribal decks with utility that felt both fresh and nostalgic.
