Provenance

Where it came from

The Wasteland Scorpion was released in 2017 as part of the Amonkhet expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Set on the desert world of Amonkhet, the card reflects the harsh, lethal environment overseen by the dragon-god Nicol Bolas. Mechanically, the card was designed to highlight the 'embalm' keyword, a core theme of the set that allows players to bring creatures back from the graveyard as mummified tokens, emphasizing the set's cycle of life and death.

The card’s artwork was illustrated by Sidharth Chaturvedi, who captured the predatory nature of the creature within the sun-drenched, Egyptian-inspired aesthetic of the plane. The design focuses on the creature's menacing scale and the arid landscape of the plane, serving both as a functional combatant in limited play formats and as a narrative piece of world-building that reinforces the unforgiving reality of Amonkhet’s trials.
