Provenance

Where it came from

Steal Strength originated as a rare card in the Urza's Destiny expansion, released by Wizards of the Coast in 1999 as the conclusion to the Urza block. The set was designed to emphasize the powerful mechanics of enchantment creatures and activated abilities, capturing the high-fantasy industrial aesthetic that defined the block's narrative arc. The card itself was illustrated by Greg Staples, whose work often captures a somber, atmospheric quality within the Magic: The Gathering universe.

The version designated as PCY-79 specifically refers to its inclusion in The List, a curated selection of reprints featured in Set Boosters starting in 2020. By reintroducing older, out-of-print cards into modern product lines, Wizards of the Coast aimed to provide players with access to classic gameplay tools while nodding to the rich historical evolution of the game's mechanics and card frame styles.
