Card face

What it does

Detain up to two target creatures your opponents control. (Until your next turn, those creatures can't attack or block and their activated abilities can't be activated.)

The Azorius have so many codes and statutes that you're always in violation of one of them.

Provenance

Where it came from

Lyev Decree was released in 2013 as part of the Dragon's Maze expansion, the final set in the Return to Ravnica block for Magic: The Gathering. The card was designed to represent the legislative authority of the Azorius Senate, a law-based faction within the Ravnica plane, functioning as a tactical control spell that mimics the effect of a legal injunction by preventing creatures from attacking or blocking.

The card features artwork by Johannes Voss, whose painterly style emphasizes the bureaucratic and architectural aesthetic of the Azorius. Upon its release, the card was noted for its utility in limited play formats, where its ability to stall aggressive strategies was highly regarded. It remains a recognized example of the set's focus on translating complex political concepts from the game's lore into functional game mechanics.
