Provenance

Where it came from

Walking Corpse was included in the Magic 2015 core set, released in July 2014. As a common creature card, it was designed primarily to serve as a functional piece for the Limited format, providing a basic, low-cost Zombie creature to flesh out the set's graveyard-themed archetypes and support the game's fundamental combat mechanics.

The artwork was provided by Igor Kieryluk, a frequent contributor to the Magic: The Gathering franchise. Kieryluk employed a grim, atmospheric style to capture the essence of a shambling undead soldier, emphasizing the decay and relentless nature expected of a standard black-aligned zombie. Within the broader context of the set, the card was received as a straightforward, utility-focused entry that adhered to the established design space of early-game aggressive or defensive creatures.
