Moonsilver Spear

Moonsilver Spear was introduced as part of the Commander 2014 set, a yearly release specifically designed for the Magic: The Gathering Commander format. Released in November 2014, the set focused on mono-colored legendary creatures as commanders, and the Spear was featured in the white-aligned 'Forged in Stone' deck. Its design, which creates a 4/4 flying Angel token whenever the equipped creature attacks, was crafted to provide white decks with a consistent source of evasive aerial threats during combat.

The card was illustrated by James Paick, whose work frequently features high-fantasy weaponry and epic, ethereal aesthetics. Paick’s visual approach for the Spear emphasizes its celestial and metallic nature, creating a sense of weight and divine utility that aligns with its function in the game. Upon release, the card was received as a solid, flavorful inclusion for mid-range equipment strategies, praised for its ability to stabilize a board state and its thematic ties to the lore of the Innistrad plane.
