Provenance

Where it came from

Pick Your Poison was released in 2021 as part of the Mystical Archive, a specialized subset of cards within the Strixhaven: School of Mages expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The set was designed to celebrate the instant and sorcery spells that define the game's history, featuring reimagined art styles that diverge from the traditional aesthetic of the game to evoke the scholarly, arcane theme of Strixhaven University.

The card features artwork by A. M. Sartor, who employed a detailed, illustrative style typical of the Mystical Archive’s focus on diverse artistic interpretations of magical lore. The design emphasizes the 'poisonous' or difficult choice mechanic of the card, with visual cues that reflect the treacherous nature of the spell. Upon release, the Mystical Archive cards were highly sought after by collectors for their distinct card frame and unique artistic treatments, marking a significant effort by Wizards of the Coast to emphasize the visual storytelling potential of their trading card game.
