Where it came from
The Locust God was originally introduced in the 2017 set Hour of Devastation as part of a cycle of powerful deities tied to the plane of Amonkhet. The version appearing in the Commander 2020 product line is a functional reprint that serves as a staple for blue and red color-identity decks. This card was designed by Wizards of the Coast to lean into the 'draw-matters' mechanical identity, rewarding players for cycling through their deck by generating swarms of flying insect tokens that can rapidly overwhelm opponents.
The artwork for this iteration maintains the signature aesthetic established for the Amonkhet deities, characterized by a glowing, ethereal presence and the distinctive golden, winged motifs associated with the god’s worship. Illustrators for the series sought to capture a sense of divine menace, balancing the creature's immense power with its status as a herald of the apocalypse within the game's narrative. It remains a widely collected piece due to its high utility in multiplayer formats and its role as a centerpiece for specialized creature-based strategies.
