Provenance

Where it came from

Shock has been a staple of the Magic: The Gathering card game since its introduction in the Stronghold expansion of 1998. It was designed as a lightweight, efficient burn spell, offering players a way to deal two damage to any target for the cost of a single red mana. This design cemented its role as a fundamental tool for aggressive decks, serving as a reliable means of removing early-game creatures or delivering the final points of damage to an opponent.

The version from Foundations Jumpstart, collector number 598, features updated card frame technology and current design sensibilities while maintaining the classic utility of the original spell. This set was created to provide accessible, ready-to-play experiences for both new and returning players. The artwork continues the tradition of visualizing the raw, elemental power of red mana, intended to convey the visceral speed and impact that the card represents within the game's mechanics.
