Where it came from
Sauron, Lord of the Rings (Collector Number 4) was released in 2023 as part of the Magic: The Gathering 'The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth' Commander expansion. This set marked a significant milestone for Wizards of the Coast as the first major 'Universes Beyond' release to integrate J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendary world into the game’s core mechanics, allowing players to utilize characters from Middle-earth in competitive play.
The card features artwork by veteran illustrator Ralph Horsley, who aimed to capture the imposing, supernatural dread of the Dark Lord at the height of his power. The design reflects the character’s lore by utilizing a 'grixis' color identity—blue, black, and red—to mirror Sauron’s manipulation, cruelty, and destructive ambition. It was generally well-received by the community for its thematic resonance and its ability to act as a powerful commander, anchoring decks focused on graveyard recursion and artifact synergy.
