Where it came from
Lie in Wait is an uncommon sorcery card featured in the Tarkir: Dragonstorm set. The card was designed as part of a tactical expansion focused on the warring clans of the Tarkir plane, an environment defined by its harsh geography and shifting temporal realities. Mechanically, the card was crafted to represent the thematic concept of patience and ambush, common tropes within the green-aligned faction mechanics of the set.
The artwork was commissioned from illustrator Diana Franco, who utilized a distinct style to capture the tension of a predator setting a trap within the rugged Tarkir wilderness. Her design sought to blend the atmospheric lighting of the region with the predatory nature of the card’s effect. Upon its release, the card was received as a niche utility piece within the set's limited environment, noted primarily for its specific role in creature-heavy draft formats.
