Where it came from
Grist, the Hunger Tide was originally designed for the 2021 expansion Modern Horizons 2, a set specifically crafted for Modern format players featuring cards that bypass Standard legality. The character, an insectoid hive-mind entity, was conceived to explore unique planeswalker design space, notably functioning as a creature while in the library or graveyard. This design mechanic required specific rules clarification, cementing its status as a mechanically distinct addition to the Magic: The Gathering ecosystem.
The card’s illustration by Mitchell Malloy captures the eerie, swarming nature of Grist, emphasizing a visceral and unsettling aesthetic. Within the community, the card received significant acclaim for its efficiency and unconventional gameplay utility. As part of 'The List'—a rotating selection of cards from Magic's history inserted into Set Boosters—this specific printing allows players to acquire the card outside of its original set context, ensuring its continued visibility and playability.
