Where it came from
Rivals' Duel was released as part of the Planechase 2012 expansion, a set designed to introduce the casual, multiplayer Planechase format to a broader audience. Published by Wizards of the Coast, this expansion featured specialized decks that utilized oversized planar cards to shift the game state. As a red sorcery, Rivals' Duel was crafted to reflect the chaotic and combative nature of the set, providing a unique tactical removal spell that forces two creatures controlled by opponents to fight one another.
The card’s visual identity was established by the artistic duo Zoltan Boros and Gabor Szikszai. Known for their high-fantasy aesthetic and dynamic action scenes, they rendered the card with the bold, visceral intensity characteristic of red-aligned magic in the game. Upon its release, the card was received as a flavorful, albeit niche, inclusion for multiplayer formats, appreciated by players for its ability to manipulate board states without directly committing the caster's own resources.
