Provenance

Where it came from

Gaze of Granite was released in 2013 as part of the Dragon's Maze expansion for Magic: The Gathering. As a rare sorcery, it was designed to encapsulate the mechanical identity of the Golgari guild, which focuses on the cyclical nature of life and death, destruction, and graveyard recursion. Its design intent centers on a versatile 'X' cost board wipe that targets nonland permanents, allowing players to clear the board of threats with converted mana costs equal to or less than the mana invested.

The artwork was commissioned from illustrator Nils Hamm, whose distinctive, painterly style is known for creating an atmospheric and often surreal aesthetic. For this piece, Hamm focused on the Golgari theme of decomposition and organic decay, depicting a powerful surge of subterranean power erupting from the earth. The card was well-received by players for its tactical flexibility in control and midrange decks, cementing its place as a staple utility spell within the Green-Black color identity.
