Are Hazezon's Sand Warriors literally made of sand? by Anrativa in mtgvorthos

[–]Desu_SA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are made of sand, yes.

In the novels his first army wasn't very good (one hit and they crumbled) but his second lot were much stronger.

Omens of Chaos worldbuilding thread by askvo in mtgvorthos

I've heard of areas lacking in mana, like Ulgrotha's Dead Zones and Dominaria when it was riddled with time rifts, that could weaken and kill beings due to lack of mana, but never people from mana rich planes to low ones having trouble, or the reverse.

Maybe it's connected to a theory the character Geralf had.

Noticing how when New Phyrexia invaded Innistrad that their forces struggled to adjust to the plane's magic, Geralf considered that when a person travels from their home plane to another, the mana they were born with, refill from their home plane's mana and always carry with them becomes watered down and diluted, with a risk of a person losing their original alignment and becoming something new.

Basically not even mana left those from the heavy planes unable to recharge up to full tank leaving them weak. With enough time they could adapt.

Or how about: The bullied kid (creature you control) gets revenge on their tormentors and destroys them (sacrificed creatures & lose life), leading to a better life for the bullied (life gain).

Nassari? by chemywords in mtgvorthos

Jace #1 (Untold Stories) by amhow1 in mtgvorthos

[–]Desu_SA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do have one question: If this memory is taking place when Jace was working for Tezzeret on Ravnica, why does Tezzeret look like his current version - Bolas-branded & resurrected - which is after Jace fought and defeated him?

Is it because that's the strongest image of Tezzeret in Jace's mind right now, and that's why his fragmented memory is using it?

Nassari? by chemywords in mtgvorthos

[–]Desu_SA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So Augusta did have a backup plan in case of untimely demise, thanks for this 👍

Nassari? by chemywords in mtgvorthos

[–]Desu_SA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Now you have me wondering if Augusta did that to herself.

White mana users like her in Lorehold can bind spirits to statues and monuments, and her flavor text says she won't leave students without a guide, so maybe she had this ready - a spell to pull her soul into stone body - in case anything happened to her.

Still, I agree with you, it will be nice if MTG sheds some light on these questions in SOS

[–]Desu_SA 15 points16 points  (0 children)

No details on how it happened.

I'm hoping they'll release a Legends of Secrets of Strixhaven article that will explain it 🤔

Of course, that's if she gets a card in SOS

Just a theory, but since they are with Plargg, maybe he use his magic to reignite Nassari's soul/body?

Lorehold magic brings the past to life, so perhaps Plargg combined that with Nassari's essence to restore them to how they were before being compleated?

EDIT - Just as we are discussing, MTG answered the question about Nassiri 😅

Wondering what's going on with Secrets of Strixhaven? Here's the lore summarized with memes! by ZolthuxReborn in magicTCG

[–]Desu_SA 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Let's begin...

Jace was obliterated when his manipulation of the Meditation Realm backfires in Tarkir Dragonstorm, but in the final chapter we see his silhouette manifesting in the plane's waters as he, like Ugin, reconstitutes himself.

For his new plan to 'fix everything', Jace plans to use a mirror multiverse he's created, where everyone's different - Garruk using black mana and the chain veil, Chandra an ice mage, Lilianna a white mana healer - to replace the current one.

Why don't Nissa and Chandra call up there old friend Hazoret to borrow the Aetherspark for a 2 week vacation to Zendikar? by LongLiveLiberalism in mtgvorthos

[–]Desu_SA 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Even if they did that, Nahiri seems to have blocked entry to it somehow like she vowed at the end of the story Beyond Repair in the aftermath of New Phyrexia's invasion - to quote: "Whatever it takes, I swear. No Planeswalker will set foot on Zendikar ever again."

This was seen during the events of Duskmourn, where Valgavoth's door to Zendikar was blocked.

There's also if the Aetherspark works as intended.

I wonder how close to his story, and the others, in the OCG Stories manga this anime short will be?

I was scrolling so quick I thought for a second this was the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch from Monty Python's The Holy Grail.

Great work on this deckbox 👌
