Theros (Baseless Speculation and Spoilers)

Aura Swap???

[Agrus Kos, Enforcer of Truth]

Aura swap would work also but they are making gods which would make more sense if they were enchantment creatures than normal creatures. Gods are supposed to be a force instead of a solid being so it would work well with them.

[Birdbrain]

I think {Lucent liminid} is a possibility because its basicly Pegasus

[rarehuntertay]

Since it enchantment block, think we'll see return of the enchantments that actually tap for effect?

[JustAWalrus]

The enchantments are for turning your creatures into gods not tapping them.

[Birdbrain]

He means stuff like {flow stone embrace} {second wind} and {witches mist}

[Mattao19]

I'm confused whats the point of an enchantment creature?

[Agrus Kos, Enforcer of Truth]

It works well with stuff like {Ethereal Armor}, {Sphere of Safety} and {Blightcaster}.

[Mattao19]

Oh ok thanks

[izik99]

They need to reprint {Parasalene}. (last block I wanted {Pyroclasm}, didn't get that. So come on, help us defend ourselves against aggro, Wizards!

Edit: don't forget curly brackets in cards names. They are I place of the E and R on the key board changes.

Oh sorry. haven't posted in a while, I completely forgot.

[Spikepit]

That's all good!

On a different note, I'd like to go out on a limb and say now that if there's a {Giant Growth}/{Giant Strength}esque card in Theros, it will have the Hercules representation hero appear in the artwork!

Jus' saying.

[Spikepit]

This brings forth another question for speculation of a baseless quality.

What Colour do you think the Heroes, Monsters or Gods will appear in? Using Hercules for example, if sticking to the Mythos, I'd say he'd be in {R} due to his raw power and apparent hulk like qualities and if not straight {R}, then probably {R}{W}. But if sticking to MtG guidelines, Heroes (all of them) would most likely be {W}, due to the Order, Honour and Justice theme present in {W}.

Using 100% MtG alignment (and considering its almost purely a mono block), I would see the following if just as a basis:

Heroes: {W} (honour, peace, order and justice)
Monsters: {G} (untamed wilds, nature and growth)
Gods: {U} (manipulation, knowledge and control)

But I could see flavourful and thematic deviations all over Greek Mythology!!! What do my lovely peers think?

[The1337Magician]

According to the Heroes vs Monsters, Heroes are White with a splash of red and monsters are green. There are five main gods, one for each color. The white, sun god; the black, death god, the green, hunt god and so forth.
I think in Theros it'll be RW heroes vs GB monster. I don't see where U will be with those two.

[Birdbrain]

I think with hero's and monsters it will be the same as innistrad

{W}{G}{R} and {U} were good
While
{B}{G}{R} and {U} were bad

They might change the excluded color though.
And Dudecore (I think) said there will be a god in each color
