Where it came from
The Will-o'-the-Wisp card was originally released as part of the Alpha set in 1993, marking the debut of Magic: The Gathering. Created by Richard Garfield, the game introduced the concept of the trading card game, with the Will-o'-the-Wisp designed as a low-cost, resilient blocker that utilized the 'flying' keyword to provide players with a persistent defensive option early in the game's development.
The 30th Anniversary Edition, which includes this specific iteration of the card numbered 429, was produced in 2022 to commemorate three decades of the game's history. These cards feature the original artwork by Sandra Everingham, whose delicate, ethereal depiction of the creature helped define the aesthetic of early black-aligned cards. This edition was designed as a non-tournament-legal collector's set, intended to replicate the feel of the original release while celebrating the legacy of the game's foundational illustrations.
