Where it came from
Ivory Tower was originally released in the Antiquities expansion in 1994, designed to reward players for maintaining a large hand size. It quickly became a staple in control decks during the early years of Magic: The Gathering, as its ability to provide consistent life gain forced opponents to find specific answers or lose the war of attrition. The card reflects the lore of the setting, where ancient artifacts from the Brothers' War were unearthed and repurposed by mages.
The version included in the Pro Tour Collector Set, a series released to commemorate early competitive play, features the iconic artwork by Margaret Organ-Kean. Her illustration depicts the titular tower as a serene, isolated structure, capturing the card's theme of preservation and detachment. This reprint allowed collectors to obtain a version of the card that functioned as a memento of the game's formative professional era, maintaining the original's mechanical utility while serving as a piece of trading card history.
