Provenance

Where it came from

When Will You Learn? was released in 2017 as part of the Archenemy: Nicol Bolas set. This product introduced a new format for Magic: The Gathering where a single player acts as the Archenemy against a team, utilizing a specialized deck of oversized Scheme cards. These cards function as powerful, game-altering effects intended to represent the grand, villainous plots of the elder dragon Nicol Bolas.

The card was illustrated by Yohann Schepacz, who captured the menacing, intellectual arrogance of the Archenemy through a sharp, high-fantasy aesthetic. The design focuses on the theme of punitive knowledge, reflecting the set's goal of emphasizing the overwhelming power and tactical superiority inherent to Bolas's machinations within the multiverse's ongoing narrative.
