Where it came from
Go for the Throat was featured as a reprint in the 2023 Magic: The Gathering Universes Beyond set, Assassin's Creed. Originally debuting in the Mirrodin expansion, the card is a hallmark of black-aligned removal spells, designed to provide players with a versatile, low-cost way to eliminate non-artifact creatures. Its inclusion in this set serves to bridge the mechanical identity of Magic with the stealth and assassination themes prevalent throughout the Assassin's Creed franchise.
The artwork for this version was commissioned to reflect the aesthetic of the Ubisoft series, emphasizing the visceral nature of a hidden blade strike. The design team sought to marry the mechanical efficiency of the card's original intent with the visual language of the game’s historical settings. By repurposing this existing card for the set, Wizards of the Coast aimed to offer players a functional tool that felt narratively integrated into the world of historical assassins.
