Lore

Why it matters

Originally printed in the Alpha set, Force of Nature remains one of Magic: The Gathering's most iconic early behemoths, representing the high-risk, high-reward design of the game's formative years. This Ninth Edition printing features evocative artwork by Greg Staples, preserving the legacy of an elemental that has challenged players to manage its upkeep cost since 1993.
