Rally the Ancestors

Rally the Ancestors was first released as part of the Fate Reforged set in early 2015, featuring artwork by Magali Villeneuve. The card functions as a powerful reanimation spell within the Magic: The Gathering ecosystem, designed to briefly return all creature cards from a player's graveyard to the battlefield before exiling them at the end of the turn. This specific promo version, identified as 22s, was distributed as part of the set's promotional cycle to reward players for participating in organized tournament play.

Magali Villeneuve’s illustration captures the ethereal nature of the spell, depicting spirits rising in a luminous, spectral surge that aligns with the set's thematic focus on the shifting timelines and ancestral history of the plane of Tarkir. The design was received with significant interest by the competitive community, as it enabled complex graveyard-centric strategies that became a cornerstone of several successful tournament decks during its time in the Standard format.
