Where it came from
The Lord of Atlantis is one of Magic: The Gathering’s foundational creatures, appearing in the very first core set released in 1993. It was designed to define the identity of blue-aligned decks by providing a powerful, synergistic boost to Merfolk creatures, cementing their role as a fast, aggressive tribe. The card has been reprinted numerous times over the decades, serving as a staple of aquatic-themed strategy.
This particular version from the Seventh Edition, released in 2001, features updated artwork by Greg Staples. Staples moved away from the more whimsical or cartoony aesthetic of earlier iterations to provide a grittier, more imposing vision of the Merfolk lord. This edition marked a transition period for the game's visual identity, as Wizards of the Coast sought to standardize the frame design and provide a more cohesive look for the core set experience.
