Lore

Why it matters

As one of the original cards from the 1993 Limited Edition Alpha set, Orcish Artillery represents the earliest era of Magic: The Gathering. Collectors value this piece for Anson Maddocks' distinct, gritty illustration style and its place in the game's foundational history as a classic example of early red-aligned damage spells.

What it does

{T}: This creature deals 2 damage to any target and 3 damage to you.

In a rare display of ingenuity, the Orcs invented an incredibly destructive weapon. Most Orcish artillerists are those who dared criticize its effectiveness.
