Where it came from
Release the Gremlins was released in 2017 as part of the Aether Revolt set for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The set was designed to explore the industrial and revolutionary themes of the plane of Kaladesh, a world centered on magical energy known as Aether. Within this narrative, the card depicts the chaotic moment when rebels sabotage the city of Ghirapur by unleashing swarms of destructive Gremlins, creatures that feed on and dismantle Aether-based machinery.
The card was illustrated by Deruchenko Alexander, who captured the frenetic energy of the mechanical sabotage. The design leans into the set's central mechanic of creating artifact tokens, allowing players to scale the card's effect based on how much mana they invest. Upon its release, it was noted by players for its flavor-rich design that perfectly mirrored the Aether Revolt story, where the Gremlins serve as a potent tool for dismantling the oppressive inventions of the city's ruling Consulate.
