Where it came from
King Macar, the Gold-Cursed was released in 2014 as part of the Journey into Nyx expansion, the final set in the Theros block for Magic: The Gathering. Drawing inspiration from Greek mythology, the card depicts the legendary King Midas, reimagined through the lens of the plane's enchantment-focused mechanics. It was designed to capture the classic myth where the king’s touch turns everything he interacts with into solid gold, translating this into a gameplay mechanic that exiles creatures and rewards the player with gold tokens.
The artwork was created by Greg Staples, who focused on the interplay between the character’s dark, cursed nature and the glittering lure of his newfound power. The card was met with interest by players due to its unique ability to generate resources, solidifying its place as a thematic standout in the Theros narrative. Its design reflects the set's broader goal of exploring high-fantasy interpretations of classical tropes within the game's established multiverse.
