red mana: This creature gets +1/+0 until end of turn.

While it's true most Dragons are cruel, the Shivan Dragon seems to take particular glee in the misery of others, often tormenting its victims much like a cat plays with a mouse before delivering the final blow.

Provenance

Where it came from

The Shivan Dragon originally debuted in the 1993 Alpha set as one of the most iconic creatures in Magic: The Gathering history, serving as a quintessential finisher for red-aligned decks. This specific iteration, collector number 716, was released as part of a Secret Lair drop, a premium product line designed to offer stylized, limited-run artistic reimaginings of classic cards for collectors and enthusiasts.

The artwork was commissioned from Martin Ontiveros, a multidisciplinary artist known for his vibrant, bold aesthetic and toy design background. His rendition leans into a stylized, graphic-novel sensibility that departs from the traditional high-fantasy realism of early Magic art. The piece was well-received by collectors who favor modern, artist-led reinterpretations of foundational game staples.
