Where it came from
Nadir Kraken was released in early 2020 as part of the Magic: The Gathering expansion set Theros Beyond Death. The set was designed to revisit the Greek mythology-inspired plane of Theros, focusing on themes of the underworld, enchantment creatures, and the struggle between gods and mortals. This card specifically reflects the set's exploration of sea-dwelling horrors within the Therosian narrative, acting as a creature that grows in power and generates tokens as players draw cards.
The card was illustrated by Wisnu Tan, who crafted a depiction of a multi-tentacled sea beast emerging from deep waters. The design intent was to capture the essence of a kraken while mechanically supporting the blue color identity's focus on card advantage. Upon its release, the card became a notable inclusion in commander decks and limited formats, appreciated for its ability to scale throughout the late game and its synergy with draw-heavy strategies.
