![]() Most of us were back at the Azorius Senate House, for our second summit of this one incredibly long, incredibly horrific day. The Elder Dragon still sat upon his throne, as if none of our efforts amounted to anything at all. And, of course, the new Living Guildpact-Master Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind-lay catatonic on the ground amid the ruins of the embassy, all his mystic energy expended on the killing of just one of the God-Creepies.Īnd there was Nicol Bolas, himself. The attempt to kill Miss Raven-Hair, Liliana Vess, had failed, and that necromancer still controlled those Eternals for Bolas. Many Planeswalkers had lost those Sparks and their lives to the Eternal army that still occupied our world. Bolas's so-called Elderspell had created a vast storm of magic, dropping all of Ravnica into an artificial night punctuated by the stolen Planeswalker Sparks that rocketed like comets toward Bolas and the mystic gem floating between his horns, feeding the dragon and his power. And best of all, Hekara was alive again! All good stuff, you know?īut it wasn't all sunshine and light, either. Two of the four God-Eternals-plus any number of normal-sized creepies-had been destroyed. Every guild had joined the fight, and Mister Fayden, Mister Karn, Miss Samut, and Mister Sarkhan Vol had even returned from Amonkhet with an impressively large spear, the property of a God named Hazoret, which had already proven useful in battle. The Izzet's Beacon, the Immortal Sun, the Planar Bridge, and the flow of Eternals from Amonkhet had all been shut down.

Not even the fan-favorite Ixlan’s Binding can stop Ilharg, the Raze-Boar god. Even with smaller critters in hand, Raze-Boar is a monster who can’t be ignored, especially when cards like Vraska’s Contempt and Conclave Tribunal can’t permanently remove him as a threat. If you want life gain and heavy attack power, pair Ilharg, the Raze-Boar with Pelakka Wurm instead.Ĭard draw is an issue with Ilharg and the stars need to line up when casting a free powerful creature. Pair his attack with Ravager Wurm and you’re attacking with a potential 13 damage (seven with trample), while also destroying an opponent’s creature or land. Ilharg easily fits into a Gruul deck, beefing up his power levels even more with the enchantment Rhythm of the Wild. This seems similar to Champion of Rhonas from Amonkhet, but stronger. Thus, he can’t die or permanently be removed from the game. “When Ilharg, the Raze-Boar dies or is put in exile from the battlefield, you may put it into its owner’s library third from the top,” the card reads. “Return that creature to your hand at the beginning of the next end step.” Free casting is a dangerous mechanic in Magic: The Gathering. “Whenever Ilharg, the Raze-Boar attacks, you may put a creature card from your hand onto the battlefield tapped and attacking,” the card reads. But the most destructive part of Ilharg, the Raze-Boar is his two static abilities. His power and defense are a 6/6 and he has trample. Ilharg, the Raze-Boar is a red Legendary Creature who costs five mana (two red) to cast. The destructive power of Ilharg, the Raze-Boar Fans have speculated a return of the Amonkhet gods, but not many foresaw Ilharg, the Raze-Boar coming. The new expansion, which is set to release at the end of April, focuses on a total of 36 planeswalkers as the war on Ravnica comes to a close. ![]() The spoilers for MTG War of the Spark continue to roll in, this time showcasing a super god pig.
