Provenance

Where it came from

Gideon's Phalanx was released in 2015 as part of the Magic Origins expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. This set was designed to explore the origin stories of five iconic Planeswalkers, with this specific card highlighting Gideon Jura's tactical prowess and his role as a leader of elite soldiers on his home plane of Theros.

The card was illustrated by James Ryman, who focused on capturing the martial discipline and divine-inspired synergy characteristic of the white mana color identity. The artwork reflects the tactical focus of the set, depicting Gideon summoning a formation of soldiers to aid him in combat, a design choice meant to mechanically reinforce the theme of white-aligned battlefield solidarity.
