Where it came from
Invading Manticore was released in 2019 as part of the War of the Spark set for Magic: The Gathering. This set marked the climactic conclusion of the long-running Nicol Bolas story arc, which saw the villainous dragon-god launch a multiversal invasion of the plane of Ravnica. The card represents the overwhelming forces Bolas commanded during the conflict, emphasizing the chaotic and destructive nature of the invasion as his army sought to harvest the sparks of the Planeswalkers gathered on the world.
The card was illustrated by Wisnu Tan, who rendered the creature with a focus on the brutal, mechanical aesthetic of the Dreadhorde—the undead army utilized by Bolas. The design intent was to capture the sheer intimidation factor of these transformed, crystalline-armored beings as they descended upon the city-wide metropolis. Upon its release, it served as a functional 'common' rarity card intended primarily for limited play formats, where its aggressive stats and creature type provided a solid presence for players drafting the set.
