Where it came from
Invade the City was released in 2019 as part of the Magic: The Gathering set War of the Spark. The set focused on a climactic narrative arc where the antagonist Nicol Bolas launched a massive assault on the plane of Ravnica, bringing together dozens of Planeswalkers to defend the city. Mechanically, the card utilizes the 'amass' keyword, which was introduced in this set to represent the rising tide of the Eternals, the undead army utilized by Bolas to conquer the cityscape.
The card was illustrated by Victor Adame Ming, who aimed to capture the scale and chaos of the invasion through the perspective of a gargantuan creature looming over the urban environment. The design intends to mechanically mirror the flavor of the set's story, allowing players to build a single, ever-growing threat that reflects the relentless encroachment of the invading army. Upon its release, it was noted primarily as a Limited format utility card, appreciated for its ability to provide both board presence and a late-game win condition in the aggressive drafting environment of the set.
