Where it came from
Lifecrafter's Bestiary was first printed in the Aether Revolt expansion in 2017, designed to represent the inventions and research logs of the artificers on the plane of Kaladesh. Its inclusion in the Commander 2020 preconstructed decks served to provide players with a repeatable card-draw engine that rewards the creature-focused strategies typical of the green color identity in the Commander format.
The artwork for this card was created by Volkan Baga, who utilized a rich, illustrative style to depict an elaborate, mechanical tome overflowing with organic life. His design captures the essence of Kaladesh’s 'aether-punk' aesthetic, balancing the intricate metallic detail of the bestiary itself with the fantastical creatures emerging from its pages. It has remained a staple in green-based decks due to its efficiency and thematic alignment with creature-heavy deck building.
