What it does
At the beginning of your upkeep, you may look at the top card of target opponent's library. If you do, you may put that card on the bottom of that player's library.

Where it came from
Precognition was released in 1997 as part of the Tempest expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Developed by Wizards of the Coast, Tempest was the first set in the Rath Cycle, a narrative-driven block that introduced darker, more atmospheric art styles and complex mechanics to the game. The card was designed to reflect the blue color identity's focus on information manipulation and library management, allowing players to peek at their upcoming draws.
The evocative artwork for Precognition was provided by artist DiTerlizzi, widely known for his distinct, whimsical, and slightly macabre illustration style. His contribution to the Tempest set helped solidify the visual identity of the game during a period of transition in its aesthetic direction. Upon release, the card was viewed primarily as a utility piece for control-oriented strategies, appreciated by players for its ability to filter card advantage rather than provide explosive offensive power.
