Title: Most powerful god in theros?
Post by: Moneekahh on November 27, 2013, 05:59:32 PM
Who is, in your opinion, the most powerful God card in Theros and why?

I'd say Thassa. You just see how well she dominates. She made mono blue aggro BLUE AGGRO a thing lol

Also in EDH her + {Zur the Enchanter} is so OP lol

She also costs 1 less than the others.

Also very true and very much a huge factor! Though Nylea with Greens ramp comes in T3 as well

Purphoros packs the most punch, and lets other things pack more punch too :)

I enjoy Erebos, mainly for my play style. I can see how Thassa is preferred on the whole, but I'm going with Erebos.

Erebos or Purphorus IMO.
Thassa and Nylea are tied to you're board state, they aren't good unless the are turned on or if you have creatures to support them. Heliod is just weak IMO. A continuous token producer is relevant, but the cost makes him underwhelming. Erebos has two VERY relevant abilities that can affect the game regardless of board state. Purphorous' non-mana ability is the best of the bunch IMO.

Good points but Thassa is dependent on your board state BUT that Scry plus how low of a curve her decks bring make it a lot easier for you to rebuild.

Same with Erebos that card draw is great! Erebos is my 2nd favourite.

Purphoros is fun but I have yet to lose to a Purphoros. I've lost a lot to Erebos and Thassa but I've played Purphoros a lot and if anything he just slows down RDW
