Where it came from
Liu Bei, Lord of Shu was released in 1999 as part of the Portal Three Kingdoms expansion set for Magic: The Gathering. This set was designed specifically to introduce the mechanics of the game to the Asian market, drawing heavily on the classic 14th-century Chinese historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The set was initially distributed in limited regions, making its cards culturally distinct and often sought after by those interested in both the history of the game and the lore of the period.
The card artwork was illustrated by Jerry Tiritilli, who was tasked with capturing the regal and heroic essence of Liu Bei, a central figure of the Shu Han state. The design focuses on his role as a unifying leader, reflecting his attributes in the game as a commander capable of rallying his forces. Upon its release, the card was noted for its unique tactical utility and its role in translating historical military strategy into the structured card game format.
