Trivia on Sphinxes

Hi Mark, it's my birthday for another hour or so, and so I'd like to request some trivia on Sphinxes in Magic.


We had trouble finding blue’s iconic creature. It needed to fly as blue is the color most associated with flying. We also wanted the creature to be intelligent. Dragons were red’s iconic. We stumbled upon Sphinxes one day, and said, “they tell riddles, that’s pretty smart.” Happy Birthday!

Lower Rarity Iconics Frequency

"Iconic is the splashy creature type used at rare/mythic rare. We do common Dinosaurs quite often. "I feel iconic status just restricts when a creature can be used. No uncommon dragons or sphinxes?


We do lower rarity iconics sparingly.
