Where it came from
Monastery Swiftspear was originally released in the 2014 Khans of Tarkir expansion, designed by Wizards of the Coast for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. It was conceived as a powerful, aggressive creature for red decks, utilizing the prowess mechanic to reward players for casting non-creature spells. Its efficiency and impact on formats like Modern and Legacy quickly established it as a staple of competitive play, leading to its inclusion in various reprint series.
The version appearing in The List—a curated selection of reprints inserted into booster packs—features the original illustration by Steve Argyle. Argyle’s art captures the swift, kinetic energy of the Jeskai monk, reflecting the card's intent to pressure opponents early in a game. By including it in The List, Wizards of the Coast maintained accessibility for players seeking to bolster their aggro-style decks with a proven, historically significant card.
