Where it came from
Rat Colony originated in the 2018 set Dominaria, designed as a mechanical callback to classic cards like Relentless Rats that allow a player to bypass the standard deck-building limit of four copies. The design intent was to provide a tribal, aggressive strategy for players in Limited and casual formats, enabling a deck to swarm the board with increasing efficiency as more copies are played.
Artist Suzanne Helmigh illustrated the piece, focusing on a dark, cluttered aesthetic that captures the overwhelming nature of a vermin swarm. By including the card in 'The List'—a rotating collection of reprints curated by Wizards of the Coast for inclusion in Set Boosters—the card gained renewed visibility for players encountering it outside of its original Dominaria release, solidifying its status as a staple for thematic, swarm-based deck builders.
