Where it came from
Trial of Ambition is a common-rarity enchantment from the Amonkhet set, released by Wizards of the Coast in April 2017. The card was designed to reflect the thematic cycle of 'Trials' that initiates must undergo to prove their worth to the god Bontu within the Egyptian-inspired plane of Amonkhet. Mechanically, it functions as a piece of removal that forces an opponent to sacrifice a creature, reinforcing the flavor of a brutal, unforgiving test of strength.
The artwork for this card was created by Bastien L. Deharme, who utilized a stark, high-contrast style to depict the harsh atmosphere of the trials. His work on this set is widely noted for its focus on the oppressive, gold-toned aesthetic of the plane's architecture and the dark, ritualistic nature of the gods' demands. Upon release, the card was well-received by players for its efficiency in limited formats, serving as a reliable utility spell that perfectly captured the set's cycle of sacrifice and ambition.
