Where it came from
Release to the Wind is an instant card featured in the Rivals of Ixalan set, released by Wizards of the Coast in January 2018. The card is part of the broader Ixalan block, which draws heavily from themes of high-seas exploration, Mesoamerican mythology, and dinosaur-riding factions. As a rare instant, it was designed to facilitate unique game mechanics by allowing players to exile a nonland permanent and return it to the battlefield, providing utility for triggering enter-the-battlefield effects or shielding a creature from removal.
The artwork for this specific promotional version was created by illustrator Joseph Meehan. Meehan's contribution captures the ethereal, wind-swept nature of the card's effect, utilizing a vibrant color palette consistent with the tropical, mystical aesthetic of the Ixalan plane. Like many promotional cards from the Rivals of Ixalan cycle, this item was distributed through official organized play events, serving as a collectible incentive for local game store participants during the expansion's initial launch phase.
