Where it came from
Wax // Wane was released in 2010 as part of the Archenemy expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The set introduced a unique format where three players work together to defeat a single, powerful player using a specialized deck of oversized Scheme cards. This specific card, a split card originally debuted in the Invasion set, was reprinted here to provide players with versatile board control options suited for the multiplayer dynamics of the Archenemy environment.
The card features artwork by Christopher Moeller, a prolific illustrator known for his dramatic, high-fantasy style within the game. For this design, Moeller focused on the duality inherent in the card's mechanics, contrasting the additive power of Wax with the subtractive utility of Wane. The artwork was well-received for its clear visual representation of these opposing concepts, helping players quickly distinguish between the two halves during the high-paced gameplay sessions typical of the Archenemy format.
