Where it came from
The Locust God was originally released in the 2017 Magic: The Gathering set Amonkhet, representing one of the three destructive deities of the plane. This specific version, the Amonkhet Invocation, is a premium 'Masterpiece Series' card designed to showcase the aesthetic of the set's ancient Egyptian-inspired lore. These cards were printed with a distinct, ornate frame featuring hieroglyphic-style borders and a unique, glossy foil treatment intended to simulate the look of stone tablets or relics unearthed from a desert tomb.
The art for this version was rendered by illustrator Igor Kieryluk, who emphasized the terrifying, swarming nature of the deity through a dense, textured composition. While the Amonkhet Invocations series was highly anticipated by collectors for its visual departure from standard card frames, the release faced criticism from some players due to the legibility of the specific font used in the frame. Despite these design debates, the card remains a sought-after aesthetic centerpiece for players building decks centered around the Izzet color identity.
