Where it came from
Anticipate was reprinted for the Ikoria: Lair of Behemoths set, released in 2020, to serve as a versatile blue card-selection spell within the set’s limited and constructed environments. The card fits into the broader Magic: The Gathering mechanical history as an efficient tool for library manipulation, allowing players to dig through the top of their deck to find necessary resources. Its inclusion in Ikoria highlights the set's focus on fluid gameplay and adaptation, common themes throughout the block's design.
The artwork for this version was illustrated by Johannes Voss, a long-time contributor to the game known for his expressive and luminous style. Voss aimed to capture the moment of foresight suggested by the card's name, depicting a mage channeling focused arcane energy. The piece was well-received by the player base for its clean composition and distinct visual style, which aligns with the high-fantasy aesthetic established for the plane of Ikoria.
