Revision as of 03:02, 9 October 2023
Heroes of the Realm are a series of Magic: The Gathering celebration cards created by Chris Cocks to recognize internal Wizards of the Coast teams and individuals who have "had a tremendous impact on the business".[1][2] They form part of the company employee recognition program and are awarded for work done during the year.[3]
Description
Heroes of the Realm cards have black-bordered front faces and a special "Heroes of the Realm" card back.[4] Each card includes the name of the employee who received it in the bottom right-hand corner, above the legal text.[5] Since these cards don't have the regular Magic card back, they aren't legal in any format but the Commander Rules Committee has made an exception for Commander if the person playing the card is the person whose name is on that card.[6]
The Wizards of the Coast executive team chooses the teams they believe have gone above and beyond during the year and the winners design the cards (sometimes, but not always, with a little help from R&D).[7] Mark Rosewater notes that Heroes of the Realm cards don't go through the normal design processes, so they aren't always representative of what R&D might actually do on a printed card.[8] The result are cards primarily designed to be read, rather than played.[9][3] Heroes of the Realm cards are not limited to teams working on Magic: The Gathering products, but can be awarded to any team or individual across any the entire company.[5]
An oversized version of each card hangs in the Hall of Heroes at the Wizards of the Coast headquarters. Underneath the card is a list of that card's recipients.[2]
Awarded cards
This section lists the known Heroes of the Realm cards. The cards are listed under the year they were awarded but due to the production process (i.e. card design, art commission, printing), employees may not receive their physical card until the following year.[5] Cards have the legal text for the year they are printed.
Information in this section is based on Wizards of the Coast employees sharing their cards and what they were awarded for on various social media channels. The cards are not publicly released by Wizards of the Coast itself.
2016
There were only four copies of each card created for this year.
