What it does

Target creature you control gets +2/+2 until end of turn. It fights target creature an opponent controls. (Each deals damage equal to its power to the other.)

Provenance

Where it came from

Wild Instincts was released in 2015 as part of the Magic Origins set, which served as a narrative bridge exploring the origin stories of five iconic Planeswalkers. The card fits into the Green color identity, focusing on the mechanical theme of creature-based combat and synergy that defines the color's philosophy of strength and instinct.

The artwork was created by illustrator Matt Stewart, who utilized dynamic lighting to emphasize the ferocity of the creature depicted. In the context of Limited play during the Magic Origins draft environment, the card was widely recognized by players as a highly efficient and reliable removal spell, valued for its ability to clear threats while simultaneously buffing a friendly creature.
