BNG, JIN Preview - Heroic Path + XENAGOS GOD ART + ELVISH MYSTIC as Februrary 2014 FNM Promo



While we are all aware of Xenagos, the Reveler (which I actually like since not only is he a slightly affordable planeswalker, but it reminds me about the good ol' days of beast decks in the Onslaught block) as a planeswalker, the mothership has also revealed new artworks for him. This also serves as a sneak peek of what the remaining two sets, Born of the Gods and Journey into Nyx, of the Theros Block has in store for us. And yes, his GOD VERSION. Not only is he looking like being born from a mountain, you can also clearly see that he's in battle against Ajani and Elspeth. What is Ajani doing there? We'll find out soon enough.


Xenagos God Art (Born of the Gods)


Xenagos God Art (Journey into Nyx)


A planeswalker turned god? Yes? No?
It's that time of the Theros block again wherein players going to the prerelease tournaments must choose their heroic path based on their favourite mana colour.

For Born of the Gods, each color represents:
WHITE - Destined to Lead
BLUE - Destined to Outwit
BLACK - Destined to Dominate
RED - Destined to Conquer
GREEN - Destined to Thrive

And, according to MTG Realm, each "seeded" PR pack will have the following:
- 1 Seeder booster pack
- The (traditional) Premium Foil PR Promo Card
- 1 Activity Card
- 1 Spindown Life Counter
- 1 Welcome Letter
- 1 Hero Card
- 2 Born of the Gods Booster Packs
- 3 Theros Booster Packs



Coming in from the mothership, it looks like the good ol' elves are at it again to get the spotlight as the FNM prize for February next year. Elvish Mystic is of course the long-lost twin brother of Llanowar Elves. So what do you guys think of the art? I actually like the both of them. The FNM version seems like the more "mana-giving" between them though, and he really looks like a 1/1. I can imagine the original version's illustration as a 2/1 or even a 2/2. Anyway, here is the full illustration of the FNM version of Elvish Mystic by Winona Nelson:
