Where it came from
Fog was originally printed in the Alpha set of Magic: The Gathering in 1993, designed by Richard Garfield as a foundational green instant. The card reflects the early philosophy of the game, where simple mechanical interactions were used to create strategic depth. By preventing all combat damage dealt during a turn, it introduced a reliable defensive utility that has remained a staple in green decks throughout the history of the game.
The Fifth Edition version, released in 1997, features iconic artwork by Quinton Hoover. Hoover, a celebrated illustrator in the early years of the game, utilized his signature romantic, ethereal style to depict a mystical forest obscured by mist. This iteration is particularly noted for its clean layout and is often sought after by collectors who appreciate the transitional aesthetic of late-nineties Magic card design.
