Provenance

Where it came from

Ornithopter of Paradise was first introduced in the Modern Horizons 2 expansion set, released in 2021 by Wizards of the Coast. Designed as a functional homage to the iconic artifact Ornithopter, this version adds green mana acceleration to the classic zero-mana creature template. The card was intended to provide a versatile, budget-friendly mana dork for various formats, balancing the utility of early-game ramp with the vulnerability of a small flying creature.

The card features artwork by Johannes Voss, a long-time contributor to the Magic: The Gathering aesthetic. Voss leaned into the organic, whimsical nature of the construct, blending the mechanical insectoid shape of the original with vibrant, paradise-themed flora. Upon its release, it was well-received by players for its elegant design, which successfully bridges the gap between traditional mana ramp and artifact-based synergy.
