Lord of Atlantis
– Limited Edition Alpha rare. Although “lord” has historically been the catchall term for a creature that gives +1/+1 to a particular type, Lord of Atlantis was the only one until Planeshift’s Lord of the Undead that was actually called a “Lord” in its name.
Gaea’s Liege
– Time Spiral Timeshifted rare. This slot in the Time Spiral Timeshifted set was a choice between Gaea’s Liege and Endless Wurm. Finally, the development team decided that the wurm was too similar to Spectral Force (as a giant creature) and Auratog (as something that eats enchantments), so the Liege got the call.
Rings of Brighthearth
– Lorwyn rare. Many of the cards in Lorwyn and Morningtide had their parallels in Shadowmoor and Eventide. Compare the hands holding these rings, for example, to the composition of Manamorphose.
Joven
– Homelands uncommon. The cards from Homelands convey their intricate network of relationships through their flavor text. Joven’s is said by Chandler, who has a quote by Reveka, who quotes Halina, who doesn’t have a card, but also appears on cards ranging from Veldrane of Sengir to Dwarven Pony.
Martial Coup
– Conflux rare. When the shards began to merge in Conflux, the inhabitants faced threats they’d never seen before. In the art for Martial Coup, several different Bant armies are banding together to fight a rampaging beast from Naya.
Rolling Earthquake
– Portal Three Kingdoms rare. Rolling Earthquake is nearly a functional reprint of Earthquake, except that it involves Horsemanship, which was the Portal Three Kingdoms version of Flying. As a result, Rolling Earthquake is much more powerful in an environment that includes all Magic cards, because Horsemanship hardly ever comes up!
Venarian Gold
– Legends common. Years after Venarian Gold first appeared, Mark Rosewater adapted it to create Planeshift’s Sleeping Potion, which was also inspired by Skulking Ghost.
