Yawgmoth's Will

Yawgmoth's Will was originally printed in the 1998 Urza's Saga set as a rare card, representing the culmination of the villainous Yawgmoth's influence on the Magic: The Gathering multiverse. The 2007 Judge Gift version was created as an exclusive promotional reward for Level 3-5 judges who contributed to the organized play circuit, serving as both a token of appreciation and a highly collectible iteration of a card that had become a staple in eternal competitive formats.

The 2007 promotional art was illustrated by Rebecca Guay, a prominent artist known for her distinct, ethereal, and painterly style that contrasts with the darker, mechanical themes typically associated with the Phyrexian antagonist. This specific design sought to imbue the powerful card with a sense of fluid, grim beauty, moving away from the industrial aesthetic of the original printing. It was received with significant acclaim by the player community, becoming one of the most sought-after judge promotional cards due to the prestige of the award and Guay's popular visual interpretation.
