Provenance

Where it came from

Goblin Tutor was released in 2020 as part of the Unsanctioned set, a standalone boxed product designed for casual, silver-bordered gameplay. This card is a humorous riff on the classic black-bordered card Demonic Tutor, adapted to fit the chaotic and comical theme of the Goblin creature type within the Magic: The Gathering universe.

The card was illustrated by David Palumbo, who captured a quintessential goblin aesthetic that leans into the set's lighthearted and satirical design philosophy. By replacing the high-stakes searching mechanic of its inspiration with a randomized coin-flip element, the design serves as a parody of competitive deck-building staples while maintaining the playability expected of the 'Un-' sets.
