Where it came from
Foster was released in 2013 as part of the Commander 2013 set, a series of preconstructed decks specifically designed for the popular Magic: The Gathering multiplayer format. The card belongs to the Nature of the Beast deck, which focused on the Naya color shard. It was created to provide thematic support for tribal strategies, specifically those centered around the beast creature type, which was a recurring mechanical focus for the set’s design team.
The artwork for Foster was produced by artist Kev Walker, a longtime contributor to the Magic: The Gathering franchise. Walker’s aesthetic often leans into high-fantasy imagery with a focus on creature anatomy and atmospheric intensity. In the context of Commander 2013, the card’s design reflects an era of Magic where developers were increasingly tailoring mechanics to reward players for specific creature-type synergy in social, long-form gameplay environments.
