Where it came from
Makeshift Battalion was released in May 2019 as part of the Magic: The Gathering set War of the Spark. The set serves as the climax to the long-running Nicol Bolas story arc, depicting a massive gathering of planeswalkers defending the plane of Ravnica against an invading army. This card represents the desperate, coordinated efforts of the city's inhabitants to combat the overwhelming threat during the chaotic conflict.
The card was illustrated by Johannes Voss, a frequent contributor to the game known for his expressive character work. Voss designed the piece to capture the theme of teamwork, emphasizing the battalion mechanic where the unit grows stronger when attacking alongside others. The art was well-received by players for its ability to visually communicate the card's mechanical function, effectively portraying a ragtag group of soldiers rallying together in the heat of battle.
