Where it came from
The Nessian Hornbeetle, numbered 695 in the Jumpstart 2022 set, is a reprint that originated in the Theros Beyond Death expansion for Magic: The Gathering. Designed to support green-aligned creature strategies, the card embodies the high-fantasy aesthetic of the Theros plane, which draws inspiration from classical Greek mythology. Within the context of the game, it serves as a common-rarity creature intended to bolster board presence through its ability to grow stronger as the player controls larger creatures.
The illustration for the beetle was rendered by artist Svetlin Velinov, who has contributed extensively to the visual identity of Magic: The Gathering. Velinov’s design emphasizes the creature's massive, imposing silhouette, fitting the set’s focus on powerful, nature-bound entities. As a reprint in Jumpstart 2022—a set designed to facilitate quick, accessible play—the card remains a functional and thematic staple that reflects the consistent design language found across modern Magic expansions.
