Where it came from
Slip Out the Back was introduced as a part of The List, an initiative by Wizards of the Coast for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The List consists of a curated selection of cards from the game's long history, which are randomly inserted into Set Boosters. This specific card was originally printed in the 2008 set Eventide, a small expansion that leaned heavily into the mechanics and themes of the Lorwyn-Shadowmoor block.
The card was designed to embody the flavor of the Shadowmoor setting, which focused on a world transformed by a magical eclipse. Its function reflects the chaotic, shifting nature of that environment, allowing players to phase out a creature to protect it or disrupt an opponent's strategy. The original illustration, executed by artist Warren Mahy, captures the essence of a sudden, supernatural disappearance, fitting the whimsical yet unsettling aesthetic prevalent in that era of Magic's visual identity.
