Provenance

Where it came from

Leviathan first appeared in the Alpha edition of Magic: The Gathering in 1993, representing the game's early focus on massive, high-cost creatures that embodied the power of the deep sea. It was reissued in the 2000 Beatdown Box Set, a preconstructed product designed to showcase iconic, aggressive cards from the game's first few years, allowing newer players to experience the imposing nature of earlier sets.

The card's striking illustration was provided by Mark Tedin, a prolific artist who helped define the game's early visual language. His design emphasizes a sense of scale and dread, portraying the beast as a colossal, multi-limbed entity emerging from turbulent waters. While the card is often cited by players for its restrictive cost-to-power ratio in competitive play, it remains a celebrated piece of artwork within the community for its contribution to the game's foundational high-fantasy aesthetic.
