Diabolic Revelation

Description

Diabolic Revelation is a rare sorcery card from the Magic 2013 core set, designated as card number 87. Released in 2012, this card is presented in a foil finish. The card’s mana cost is {X}{3}{B}{B}, requiring five mana of black color identity to cast. Its primary effect allows the player to search their library for up to X cards, put those cards into their hand, and then shuffle their library. The card’s flavor text features a quote from Nefarox, Overlord of Grixis, reading: "There are some secrets so dark no human mind should ever contain them. Interested?" This text adds narrative context to the card’s theme of uncovering hidden knowledge. The artwork is credited to Raymond Swanland, whose illustration complements the card’s dark and mysterious nature. The foil treatment of Diabolic Revelation makes it a desirable item for those who appreciate the aesthetic differences between foil and non-foil versions. As a rare card, it holds a specific place in the set’s checklist, appealing to completists and those who value the enhanced finish. The card’s straightforward yet powerful effect makes it a notable inclusion in various deck archetypes, though its primary value lies in its collectibility and design.
