Where it came from
The Ink-Treader Nephilim was originally released in the 2006 Magic: The Gathering expansion set Guildpact, representing the chaotic, four-color identity of the Nephilim creatures from the city-plane of Ravnica. Designed by artist Greg Staples, the creature features a surreal, multi-limbed aesthetic that leans into the set's theme of forbidden experimentation and arcane mutation. It serves as a mechanical outlier in the game's history, as its unique ability to replicate spells targeting it across all other creatures on the board creates complex, high-variance gameplay states that have fascinated enthusiasts of unconventional strategies.
The inclusion of this specific card in The List—a curated selection of reprints inserted into modern-era booster packs—was designed to provide players with access to older, niche, and fan-favorite cards that are otherwise difficult to obtain. By reissuing the Nephilim with the distinct 'Planeswalker symbol' watermark, Wizards of the Coast acknowledged the card's enduring cult status within the Commander format. It remains a prized piece for those who appreciate the bold, experimental design philosophy that characterized the mid-2000s era of the game.
