Provenance

Where it came from

The Quietus Spike originally appeared in the 2008 Magic: The Gathering set Shards of Alara, designed as a rare artifact that forced opponents to sacrifice a significant portion of their life total. Its inclusion in The Brothers' War Retro Artifacts series as card number 46 serves as a thematic callback to the game's rich history, reprinting the card with a vintage-style border that evokes the aesthetic of the 1990s era of the game.

Artist Mark Brill illustrated the original card, creating a visual representation of a lethal, jagged implement that fits the dark, mechanical tone of the artifacts found in the expansion. The Retro Artifacts subset was released in 2022 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the game, providing players with an opportunity to collect iconic artifacts featuring the classic frame design that defined the game's early years.
