Where it came from
Rat Colony is a reimagined reprint of the card originally appearing in the Dominaria set, designed to function as a persistent threat that rewards players for filling their decks with multiple copies. Its inclusion in Mystery Booster 2 serves as a nod to its popularity in the Magic: The Gathering casual formats, specifically Commander, where players often build decks around the mechanical ability to ignore the standard four-copy limit on deck construction.
This version features updated art by Suzanne Helmigh, who brought a fresh, cohesive aesthetic to the creature type for the set. Her design emphasizes the swarming, hive-mind nature of the rats, utilizing dark, atmospheric tones that align with the card's mechanical utility. The release was well-received by the player base for its utility as a functional staple and for the inclusion of modern, high-quality illustrations that breathe new life into classic, recurring card designs.
