Where it came from
Tower of the Magistrate was originally printed in the 1999 Masques expansion for Magic: The Gathering. Designed as a utility land, it was conceived to interact specifically with the set's focus on creature artifacts and equipment. The card serves as a tactical tool, allowing players to grant protection from artifacts to target creatures, effectively stripping them of any equipment they might be holding.
The artwork for this specific Mystery Booster 2 printing is by Thomas Gianni, who has contributed extensively to the visual identity of Magic: The Gathering throughout its history. Gianni’s aesthetic often leans into a classic, illustrative style that anchors the game’s fantasy settings. This version retains his original design, which emphasizes the imposing, gothic architectural presence of the tower in a style that was well-received by players for its atmospheric reflection of the card's defensive function.
