Where it came from
Foray of Orcs was released in 2023 as part of the Magic: The Gathering set The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth. This set marked a significant milestone for Wizards of the Coast, representing their first major 'Universes Beyond' expansion, which integrated J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendarium into the existing game mechanics of Magic. The card was designed to depict the chaotic and threatening nature of the Orcish armies during the War of the Ring, specifically focusing on their tactical aggression during the conflicts of the Third Age.
The artwork for this card was created by artist Livia Prima, who has contributed numerous illustrations to the Magic franchise. Prima sought to emphasize the visceral, unorganized, and imposing presence of the Orcs through a dynamic composition that highlights the scale and menace of the enemy forces. Upon its release, the card was generally well-received by players for its thematic accuracy and for how effectively it translated the lore of Middle-earth into the high-strategy environment of the collectible card game.
