Provenance

Where it came from

Gnarled Sage was released as part of Core Set 2021, a Magic: The Gathering set designed to provide a foundational experience for new players while offering strategic depth for veterans. Released in July 2020, the set focused on the character Teferi, featuring a mix of reprints and new cards intended to balance the game's standard environment.

The card features artwork by illustrator Johannes Voss, who utilized a lush, earthy palette to emphasize the creature's connection to the forest. The design was intended to evoke the classic archetype of a wise, ancient guardian, fitting the card's mechanical role as a creature that rewards the player for maintaining a presence on the battlefield.
