Provenance

Where it came from

Gift of Strength was released in 2017 as part of the Hour of Devastation expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The set concludes the Amonkhet block, a narrative arc inspired by Ancient Egyptian mythology that centers on a desert plane corrupted by the elder dragon Nicol Bolas. As an instant card, it was designed to provide a tactical combat trick for green decks, reflecting the theme of divine empowerment within the set’s apocalyptic setting.

The card’s illustration was created by Kieran Yanner, a prolific artist in the game's history known for his distinct, expressive style. Yanner’s depiction of a creature receiving a magical surge serves to visually represent the mechanical buff provided by the card. Within the Limited format of the game, the card was received as a standard utility piece, prized by players for its ability to save a creature from destruction while simultaneously providing a reach-based deterrent against flying threats.
