What it does
Whenever this enchantment or another nonland permanent you control is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, each opponent sacrifices a permanent of their choice that shares a card type with it.

Where it came from
Martyr's Bond was released in the Commander 2011 product line, a seminal release that formally introduced the Commander format to the broader Magic: The Gathering ecosystem. Designed by Wizards of the Coast to support multiplayer gameplay, the card emerged from a deliberate effort to create high-impact, politically-oriented effects that function best when multiple players are involved in a single game.
The card features artwork by Mike Dringenberg, a veteran illustrator known for his significant contributions to the DC Comics Vertigo imprint. Dringenberg’s approach for this piece leans into the solemn, ritualistic aesthetic often associated with white-aligned mechanics in the game, focusing on the concepts of sacrifice and cosmic retribution. Upon its release, it was well-received by the Commander community for its ability to punish opponents who prioritize board presence through artifacts and enchantments, solidifying its status as a staple for deck archetypes that focus on stax or attrition strategies.
