Where it came from
Diabolic Intent was originally released in the 2001 expansion Planeshift, serving as a powerful tutor effect that requires sacrificing a creature as an additional cost. The Brothers' War Promos version, identified as collector number 89p, was distributed as part of a promotional cycle designed to celebrate the rich lore and history of the Magic: The Gathering multiverse, specifically focusing on the conflicts between Urza and Mishra.
This particular printing features distinct artwork by Aleksi Briclot, who chose to emphasize the sinister, visceral nature of the card's mechanics. The design reflects the high-fantasy aesthetic characteristic of the Brothers' War era, balancing the dark utility of the effect with an illustrative style that highlights the sacrifice theme. Upon its release in the promotional set, it was well-received by players for its balance of competitive utility and its updated visual presentation of a classic spell.
