Provenance

Where it came from

This version of the Plains card was released as part of the Archenemy: Nicol Bolas set in 2017. Designed as part of a supplemental product for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game, this set introduced a unique cooperative format where three players face off against a single, powerful 'archenemy.' The included land cards provided the foundational mana resources required for the specialized deck archetypes featured in the box.

The art featured on these basic lands maintains the thematic, high-fantasy aesthetic consistent with the Alara plane setting associated with the Nicol Bolas storyline. Illustrators working for Wizards of the Coast during this era focused on emphasizing expansive, evocative landscapes that reflect the magical essence of the game's five colors. The card serves as a standard functional component of the set, valued by players for its utility and the cohesive visual identity established for the Archenemy product line.
