Provenance

Where it came from

Pridemalkin was released in 2020 as part of the Magic: The Gathering Core Set 2021. This set was designed to serve as a foundational experience for players, blending new mechanics with reprints of iconic cards. The creature type Cat Beast reflects the set's thematic emphasis on diverse creature types and tribal synergies, intended to provide accessible gameplay for both newcomers and veteran players.

The card features artwork by illustrator Anna Steinbauer, who is recognized for her clean, expressive style within the game's expansive visual library. Her design captures the agile, feline nature of the creature, emphasizing the '+1/+1 counter' mechanic it provides upon entering the battlefield. Upon its release, it was regarded as a versatile, low-cost utility creature, frequently utilized in limited formats for its ability to bolster the board state.
