Provenance

Where it came from

Time Ebb was originally released in the Ninth Edition core set of Magic: The Gathering, which launched in 2005. As a core set, its purpose was to provide a foundational pool of cards that introduced players to essential game mechanics and recurring themes. The set marked a transitional period for the game, featuring a refreshed card frame design that modernized the aesthetic while retaining the classic fantasy identity established by Wizards of the Coast.

The card illustration for this printing was created by artist Heather Hudson. Hudson, a prolific contributor to the game's early visual history, aimed to capture the ethereal and disorienting sensation of a time-based effect. Her work on this card reflects the high-fantasy illustrative style characteristic of the era, focusing on the manipulation of magical flow to force a permanent back into a player's library, a mechanic known for its utility in tempo-based play.
