Where it came from
Tendrils of Corruption was first printed in the 2006 set Ravnica: City of Guilds, but this specific iteration originates from the 2009 Duel Decks: Garruk vs. Liliana. The Duel Decks series was designed by Wizards of the Coast to provide balanced, ready-to-play thematic experiences that highlighted the narrative conflicts between iconic Planeswalkers within the Magic: The Gathering multiverse.
The art for this version was illustrated by Christopher Moeller, who captured the grim, necrotic aesthetic central to Liliana Vess’s black-aligned magic. The design emphasizes the card's mechanical utility as both a removal spell and a life-gain engine, reinforcing the 'swamp-matters' theme that defines Liliana's strategic identity in this boxed set. It remains a staple for players who appreciate the flavor-driven world-building that the Duel Decks line sought to achieve during this era.
