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.
I see why your saying that, seeing as hades lives in a firey place, filled with despair and chaos. 
Although, hades is usually considered more refined.  Look at his depictions in movies and such.  Think about Hercules, hades was very refined, and wasn't really chaos-y.

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.  :)

Actually the name means "glory of Hera" which was an attempt to appease Hera because she wasn't his mother, even though Zeus was his father

I'm imagining that they won't use the real Greek names but instead of "Zeus" it will be "Lord of All", or "Lord of Lightning". Aries would be "Lord of War", etc. I am sure they will give them names though. having 5 mythic rare cards (for example) all starting with "Lord" doesn't sound right. "Insert name here, Lord of insert aspect here".
