Where it came from
Dark Intimations was released in 2017 as part of the Aether Revolt set for Magic: The Gathering. As a rare sorcery card, it serves as a thematic narrative piece tied to the set's storyline, which focuses on the conflict between the inventor community of Kaladesh and the influence of the elder dragon Nicol Bolas. The card was designed to mechanically represent the manipulation and power associated with the villainous Bolas, effectively acting as a bridge in the game's broader lore during that chapter of the multiverse's history.
The artwork for the card was illustrated by Chase Stone, who has contributed extensively to the visual identity of Magic: The Gathering. Stone aimed to capture a sense of ominous authority, depicting the influence of Nicol Bolas over the plane of Kaladesh through a dark, ethereal aesthetic. Upon its release, the card was noted by players for its high mana cost and unique effect, which rewarded players for playing planeswalkers, cementing its role as a niche but flavorful addition to the set's lineup.
