Where it came from
Setessan Tactics was released in 2014 as part of the Journey into Nyx expansion, the final set in the Theros block for Magic: The Gathering. Drawing heavy inspiration from Greek mythology, the set focused on the enchantments and gods of the plane of Nyx. The card was designed to embody the martial prowess of the Setessans, a society of warriors who valued strength, community, and devotion to the god Karametra.
The artwork was commissioned from illustrator Mark Winters, who sought to capture the dynamic, collaborative nature of the card's 'strive' mechanic. By allowing players to target any number of creatures, the design aimed to simulate a unified battle formation. Upon release, it was well-received by players for its efficiency in limited formats, where it provided a powerful tactical advantage by buffing multiple units simultaneously.
