Provenance

Where it came from

Laboratory Maniac was originally released in the 2011 Innistrad set as an uncommon creature card, designed by Wizards of the Coast to provide a win condition for decks that focus on drawing their entire library. The card gained significant popularity among players who enjoyed unconventional playstyles, becoming a staple in the Commander format for its ability to turn the risk of running out of cards into a victory condition.

This specific iteration, Collector Number 1394, was released as part of the Secret Lair Drop Series. Featuring distinct, stylized artwork commissioned by the company to appeal to collectors, these drops are known for their curated themes and non-standard visual aesthetic. The design aims to revitalize familiar mechanics with fresh artistic interpretations, generally receiving a positive reception from players who prioritize both thematic deck building and unique visual flair.
