Provenance

Where it came from

Released in 2017 as part of the Amonkhet set, Forsake the Worldly reflects the Egyptian-inspired aesthetic central to the plane of Amonkhet. The set was designed around themes of trial and divinity, with the art direction emphasizing the rigid, gold-hued hierarchy established by the antagonist Nicol Bolas. The card features a mechanical effect that exiles artifacts or enchantments, a staple utility function within the game’s broader tactical ecosystem.

The artwork was commissioned from illustrator Steve Argyle, a prolific contributor to the game known for his expressive character work. Argyle sought to capture the solemn, ritualistic removal of worldly attachments, utilizing sharp lighting and the distinct architectural motifs defined by the Amonkhet style guide. Upon release, the card was widely utilized by players as an efficient, versatile answer to key permanents, securing its place as a functional common in various constructed formats.
