Where it came from
Saw in Half was introduced in the Bloomburrow Commander expansion as a reprint, originally appearing in the Unfinity set. The card reflects the whimsical, meta-narrative style of Un-sets, which prioritize humor and unconventional gameplay mechanics over standard tournament legality. Its core mechanic—destroying a creature to create two tokens—plays on the classic magician's trope of sawing an assistant in half, offering a high-impact, chaotic effect that has become a favorite in Commander formats.
The artwork for this version was illustrated by Alexander Mokhov, whose aesthetic choice emphasizes the magical and slightly surreal tone inherent in the card's function. By blending the dark comedy of the concept with the high-fantasy visual language typical of Magic: The Gathering, Mokhov captures the specific tension between the card's destructive cost and its potential for doubling utility. The design was received as a strong piece of technical support for creature-heavy decks, prized for both its clever flavor and its strategic flexibility.
