Provenance

Where it came from

The Lord of Atlantis card was originally released as part of the Alpha set in 1993 for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game, designed by Richard Garfield. As a cornerstone of the Merfolk creature type, the card was intended to provide a powerful, centralized buff for sea-dwelling decks, reflecting the deep-sea thematic origins of early Magic lore.

This specific iteration, numbered 2★, was issued as part of the 30th Anniversary History Promos set in 2022. This commemorative series was produced to honor the game's long-standing legacy by reprinting iconic cards from the early years of the game, utilizing the original artwork by Amy Weber to maintain the historical aesthetic that defined the card's initial release during the hobby's formative era.
