Where it came from
Released in July 2018 as part of the Core Set 2019 expansion for Magic: The Gathering, this card represents the iconic elder dragon Nicol Bolas during his transformation into a planeswalker. The set was designed to reintroduce foundational elements of the game's lore while providing a modern showcase for key characters, positioning this double-faced card as the centerpiece of the set's narrative arc regarding Bolas's rise to absolute power.
The card features artwork by Svetlin Velinov, who was tasked with illustrating both the creature and planeswalker sides of the dual card. The design was crafted to emphasize the dragon's imposing scale and his eventual transition into a formidable, multi-ability spellcaster, a shift that was widely praised by players for effectively capturing the character's strategic complexity and narrative evolution within the game's expansive multiverse.
