Provenance

Where it came from

Orzhov Basilica was first introduced in the Guildpact expansion in 2006, representing the bureaucratic and ecclesiastical power of the Orzhov Syndicate within the city-plane of Ravnica. This specific printing originated in the 2013 Commander set, which was designed to bolster the secondary market availability of staple cards that define the various two-color guild identities of the franchise.

The card features the distinct architectural style of the Orzhov, emphasizing opulence and oppressive verticality, illustrated by the artist Todd Lockwood. His design aimed to reflect the guild's duality of faith and debt-collection, utilizing gold and shadowed motifs to capture the feeling of a sanctified, yet predatory, seat of power. It has remained a staple in the format due to its utility in managing mana resources while triggering land-based synergies.
