Provenance

Where it came from

Strategy, Schmategy is a card featured in the Unsanctioned set, released by Wizards of the Coast in 2020. This set was designed as a standalone, out-of-the-box Magic: The Gathering experience that embraced the silver-bordered, 'un-set' tradition of humor and rule-bending gameplay. It was specifically crafted to be draftable and playable without the need for additional expansions, emphasizing the chaotic and whimsical spirit that has defined the series since the release of Unglued in 1998.

The card was illustrated by Phil Foglio, a long-time contributor to the game whose distinctively expressive and cartoonish style has been a staple of the silver-bordered sets. Foglio’s design for this card leans into the self-referential humor typical of the set, poking fun at the rigid competitive structures of standard gameplay. Upon its release, the card was well-received by players who enjoy the lighthearted, non-tournament-legal side of the hobby, serving as a reminder that the game is intended for amusement as much as strategic victory.
