Myr

The Myr token was released in 2022 as part of the Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty Commander set. This card serves as a representative of the Myr, a quintessential race of artificial, construct-like creatures originally introduced in the Mirrodin block. In the context of Commander gameplay, this specific token is generated by cards that task players with manifesting small, metallic companions to swarm the board or provide utility in artifact-centric decks.

The artwork was commissioned from illustrator Ryan Pancoast, who is well-regarded for his atmospheric and textured approach to fantasy art. Pancoast’s design for this token leans into the neon-drenched aesthetic of the Neon Dynasty set, reimagining the traditionally organic-looking Myr with the sleek, cybernetic sensibilities found in the plane of Kamigawa. The design was received by the Magic: The Gathering community as a faithful and visually distinct iteration that bridges the gap between classic Mirrodin lore and the modern, futuristic themes of its host expansion.
