Where it came from
Meteor Crater was released in 2001 as part of the Planeshift expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Planeshift served as the second set in the Invasion block, a storyline-heavy narrative arc focusing on the Phyrexians' full-scale invasion of the plane of Dominaria. The card was designed to function as a utility land that rewards players for managing color diversity in their decks, reflecting the thematic focus of the Invasion block on multicolor strategies and domain mechanics.
The artwork for the card was commissioned from artist Greg Staples, whose dark, atmospheric style helped define the visual identity of the set. Staples aimed to capture the impact and raw destructive power of a celestial body striking the landscape, utilizing a palette of deep oranges and charred earth to convey the aftermath of the crash. Upon its release, the card was generally viewed as a situational tool for specific deck archetypes rather than a universal staple, appreciated by players for its unique mechanics and vivid illustration.
