Where it came from
Pippin, Guard of the Citadel was released in 2023 as part of the Magic: The Gathering set The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth. This expansion represented the first major release under the Universes Beyond label, which integrates iconic intellectual properties into the game's mechanics. The card depicts Peregrin Took in his formal livery after swearing fealty to Denethor II, capturing a pivotal moment of maturation for the character as he transitions from a wandering hobbit to a defender of Minas Tirith.
The artwork was commissioned from Anato Finnstark, a digital artist celebrated for their evocative, painterly style and expertise in high fantasy lighting. Finnstark aimed to capture the gravity of the siege of Gondor, contrasting Pippin's relatively small stature with the imposing, somber architecture of the Citadel. The card was well-received by players for its thematic accuracy and tactical utility within the set, finding a place in both competitive formats and thematic collections focused on Tolkien's legendarium.
