What it does

1 generic mana, tap: Target creature gains banding until end of turn. (Any creatures with banding, and up to one without, can attack in a band. Bands are blocked as a group. If any creatures with banding a player controls are blocking or being blocked by a creature, that player divides that creature's combat damage, not its controller, among any of the creatures it's being blocked by or is blocking.)

Provenance

Where it came from

The Helm of Chatzuk was originally released as part of the Ice Age expansion for Magic: The Gathering in 1995. Designed to reflect the harsh, survivalist themes of a world trapped in a magical ice age, the card depicts a relic belonging to the legendary hero Chatzuk, a figure associated with the defense of the city of Soldev. Its mechanics allow players to grant protection from specific creature types, mirroring the thematic struggle against the varied threats of the frozen wastes.

The artwork was provided by Mark Tedin, a foundational artist for the early years of the game. Tedin’s illustration focuses on the grim, utilitarian design of the helm, emphasizing a weathered and ancient aesthetic that fits the high-fantasy lore of the period. While the card is often viewed as a niche utility artifact within the game’s vast history, it remains a notable piece of the International Collectors' Edition, a product line released to provide international markets with high-quality, gold-bordered versions of earlier set cards.
