Provenance

Where it came from

Sphinx of Magosi was released in 2010 as part of the Rise of the Eldrazi set, the third installment of the Zendikar block. Designed for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game, it reflects the block's focus on high-cost, powerful permanents that could interact with the game's unique 'level up' and 'eldrazi spawn' mechanics. The card was created to provide a late-game engine for blue-aligned players, functioning as a card-draw and self-buffing threat that rewards players for conserving mana.

The card's illustration was created by artist Igor Kieryluk, who depicted the creature with a sense of architectural and mystical scale consistent with the Zendikar setting's ancient ruins. Critics and players at the time noted the card's efficiency as a game-closer in Limited formats, though it struggled to find a permanent home in faster Constructed competitive decks due to its significant mana cost. It remains a recognizable part of the set's identity for its combination of evasion and resource accumulation.
