Provenance

Where it came from

Smite was released in 2010 as part of the Rise of the Eldrazi expansion for Magic: The Gathering. This set marked the conclusion of the Zendikar block, a high-fantasy world defined by dangerous landscapes and the awakening of the Eldrazi, ancient and incomprehensible cosmic entities. The card was designed as a thematic instant that reinforced the defensive capabilities of white mana, allowing players to destroy a creature that was attacking them, fitting the set's emphasis on larger-than-life battles and massive creature threats.

The artwork was provided by Cyril Van Der Haegen, a prolific fantasy illustrator known for his dynamic use of light and movement. His depiction of Smite captures a moment of decisive magical intervention, balancing the aesthetic of a grounded medieval fantasy with the larger, more alien scale of the Eldrazi-themed set. Within the game’s competitive landscape, the card served as a functional common, valued for its utility in limited formats and its ability to provide cheap removal against aggressive opposing strategies.
