Where it came from
Pongify was originally released in the 2007 set Planar Chaos as part of the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. It was designed as a blue removal spell, a rarity in the game's color identity at the time, which traditionally restricted direct creature destruction. The card serves as a thematic nod to the 1968 film Planet of the Apes, specifically referencing the transformation of a character into an ape, which is represented mechanically by destroying a target creature and replacing it with a 3/3 green Ape creature token.
The version included in Time Spiral Remastered, released in 2021, features the classic card frame to evoke nostalgia for the era in which the card debuted. While the original illustration was provided by Pete Venters, the card's function as a low-cost, efficient answer to threats has made it a staple in the Commander format. Its inclusion in the remastered set was well-received by players who value both its tactical utility and its iconic status as an unconventional blue spell.
