Provenance

Where it came from

The Time Vault was originally released in the 1993 Alpha set as part of the initial launch of Magic: The Gathering. Designed by Richard Garfield, the card was intended to explore the mechanics of turn manipulation and resource management, though its immense power level led to it becoming a centerpiece of the game's restricted and banned lists throughout its history.

The 30th Anniversary Edition, released in late 2022, serves as a premium, non-tournament-legal celebration of the game's history. It features the classic art style updated with modern border treatments, specifically reprinting iconic cards like the Time Vault to allow collectors to own a representation of these legendary artifacts in a format that honors their original aesthetic while acknowledging their status as pillars of the hobby.
