Where it came from
Depths of Desire was released in September 2017 as part of the Ixalan expansion for Magic: The Gathering. The set introduced a plane inspired by the Age of Discovery, blending Mesoamerican mythology with high-fantasy tropes like piratical exploration and dinosaur taming. Designed by Wizards of the Coast, this common-rarity blue sorcery was intended to provide players with a functional tempo-based bounce spell, allowing them to return a creature to its owner's hand while creating a Treasure token, a central mechanic of the set's economic theme.
The card’s artwork was illustrated by Sidharth Chaturvedi, who utilized a moody, aquatic color palette to depict a sunken vessel resting in a mystical cavern. Chaturvedi aimed to emphasize the theme of treasure hunting within the Ixalan setting, capturing the allure of forgotten wealth buried beneath the waves. Upon release, the card was received primarily as a utility piece for Limited formats, praised by players for its efficiency in navigating board states during the set’s draft environment.
