Where it came from
Lead by Example was released in 2018 as part of Battlebond, a Magic: The Gathering expansion specifically designed for the Two-Headed Giant multiplayer format. The set focused on themes of teamwork, partnership, and shared victory, which necessitated the creation of cards that could target multiple creatures or provide mechanical advantages to a player's teammate. This card was conceptualized to capture the cooperative essence of the set, offering a simple yet effective way to protect or bolster a duo of creatures simultaneously.
The card was illustrated by Johannes Voss, a long-time contributor to the game known for his expressive and luminous style. Voss was tasked with depicting two figures working in concert, reflecting the set's broader narrative of gladiatorial competition within the arena of Valor's Reach. Upon its release, the card was received as a functional utility tool for limited-format play, praised for its clarity of design and its thematic adherence to the cooperative nature of the Battlebond experience.
