Wizards of the Coast (WotC) has revealed two more planeswalkers from the upcoming Magic: The Gathering set – Phyrexia: All Will Be One. Take a look at Nissa, Ascended Animist and Tyvar, Jubilant Brawler!
Compleated
+1: Create an X/X green Phyrexian Horror creature token, where X is Nissa, Ascended Animist’s Loyalty.
-1: Destroy target artifact or enchantment.
-7: Until end of turn, creatures you control get +1/+1 for each Forest you control and gain trample.
Sadly, Nissa has succumbed to the Phyrexians, but could be more powerful than ever. Nissa, Ascended Animist can be cast for seven mana or five mana and four life, and comes with either seven or three loyalty, respectively. While her minus one ability is underwhelming, both her plus one and ultimate ability are very strong, either creating a massive Phyrexian Horror or giving your creatures a huge stat boost.
Next, courtesy of Seanan McGuire, here’s Tyvar!
You may activate abilities of creatures you control as though those creatures had haste.
+1: Untap up to one target creature
-2: Mill three cards, then you may return a creature card with mana value 2 or less from your graveyard to the battlefield.
Our favorite Kaldheim local managed to make it through un-compleated, and has gained a new color identity. The three-mana, Golgari Tyvar comes with three loyalty and a sweet static ability that lets you activate abilities of creatures as if they have haste. Tyvar’s plus one let’s you untap any creature, allowing for strong early plays with mana creatures and more, while his minus two mills cards and returns a creature with mana value two or less.
What do you think of the compleated Nissa and new Tyvar? Let us know what you think in the comments on Facebook and Twitter.
Phyrexia: All Will Be One is scheduled to release on February 10. View our official preview gallery.
