Provenance

Where it came from

Impending Flux was released in 2023 as part of the Magic: The Gathering Universes Beyond: Doctor Who Commander set. This card serves as a mechanical representation of the series' recurring themes of temporal instability and cosmic upheaval, functioning as a board-wipe sorcery that reflects the chaotic nature of the show's multiversal narrative arcs.

The card features artwork by Ben Wootten, a conceptual illustrator known for his work in fantasy and science fiction media. Wootten’s design focuses on the visual language of unstable energy and shifting timelines, utilizing high-contrast visuals to capture the destructive potential inherent in the Doctor Who universe. Upon its debut, the card was received as a flavorful addition to the set, recognized by players for its thematic resonance with the series' high-stakes storytelling.
