First strike, protection from red
When Tivadar enters, destroy target Goblin.
His blade came down upon the neck of a goblin—but not the one he had charged. When Tivadar looked up, the world he had known was gone.

Where it came from
Tivadar of Thorn was released in 2006 as part of the Time Spiral expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. The set was designed as a celebration of the game’s history, featuring numerous mechanical references to early cards and lore. Tivadar specifically serves as a nod to the classic 'Tivadar's Crusade,' a card from the 1994 Fallen Empires set, reimagining the character as a legendary creature designed to counter Goblins in a tactical, top-down design process.
The card’s artwork was illustrated by Randy Gallegos, who has been a long-standing contributor to the game. Gallegos captured the character in a rigid, stoic pose, emphasizing the knight's protective and militant nature. The card was received by the player base as a niche but thematic utility piece, appreciated primarily for its flavor and its specific role in 'White Weenie' or tribal-hate sideboard strategies during the Time Spiral limited and constructed formats.
