Trojan Horse
{5}
Artifact
Trojan Horse enters the battlefield tapped.  When Trojan Horse comes enters the battlefield exile 2 creature cards from your hand.
{5} {T},  Sacrifice Trojan Horse: Put x 1/1 solders tokens with haste into play where x = the combined power of the creatures exiled with Trojan Horse.  Exile all tokens in play at the end of this turn.
cool idea too

What about the card types.
Mortals
God
Demigod

I want to see campe!  Woman with winged dragon body scorpion tail and various bear wolf and lion heads coming from the waist and holding a scythe... Maybe too complicated o.o

If theros is an enchantment block, think we will see something that gives enchantments flash? Or that gives auras flash?

A magic version of Hercules and planeswalkers in togas.... The consumer is the clear winner here.

Sorry I really have to correct this, it's Heracles, not Hercules, Hercules is the name that those stupid Romans gave him when they stole the myth

Kles - meaning famous, Hera meaning the goddess, his mother.  Heracles, made famous by Hera, because of the challenges she sent his way.  :)

They should make a king Leonidas card! Flavor text should read "madness! This is Sparta!"

The Romans stole virtually every Greek myth and changed the names of the same gods because that's how original they are

To be even more precise it is Héraklés [Ἡρακλῆς]...;) You know greek history and myths are so great and look at them now...:) Bankrupcy... Laziness...

Does anyone know who the planeswalkers will be? I personally want another version of Ral, but I know he was too recent.

I hope ther introduce a new red-white one, not like  {Ajani Vengeant}, since they sort if failed that. It should be like a Boros planeswalker. Just my view.

Maybe, instead of the gods, they will be planeswalkers with slightly altered names? That would be very cool

Birdbrain

Which gods do you think would be which colors if they make them?

Some are obvious like
Zeus {W}{R}
Poseidon {U}
Hades {B}{R}
Athena {W}{U}

But what about the rest?

FlickerYourOwnIdentity

I see hades as {B}{U} seeing as blue is considered to be a manipulating color.

Maybe all three since he's also sort if chaos/fire. Having three colour decks/planeswalkers would be GREAT, if they were the opposite of the shards.

the wedges? I don't think they'll do those since they just did multicolor. I'm guessing 4 years after ravnica block
