Just wondering exactly when the final 5 god cards will be coming out to finish the total 15 gods in the block. The ones missing are G/U, W/R, G/B, R/U, and B/W. Also just for fun if they aren't out yet, what do you think they will be? Abilities and Weapons?

G/U: Kruphix
W/R: Iroas
G/B: Pharika
R/U: Keranos
B/W: Not quite sure.
Weapons aren't being printed for the demigods.

Also, none of the dual-color gods had weapons, just diciples/fanatics.

I would believe that there will be at least one more hero for a god as well, see Hero of Iroas
Also, they come out in Journey into Nyx.

I think Hero was a one time thing, somewhat symbolizing Hercules.

Kravian- Karametra has a scythe, Mogis has an axe, Xenagos has his double-ended... scepter. Ephara has a shield, not a weapon (unless you're Captain America or Rygar), but matches the concept, and Phenax is the god of deception and subversion, so I'd say his accessory is actually his mask... but there's no reason that the god's implement need be a weapon just because the first five are.

Oh, I thought we were discussing actual cards. My point was that is isn't an "Athame of Phenax" or anything.

I think that Keranos (U/R) will have some sort of scry ability. Either Pharika (B/G) or Athereos (W/B) will be a reanimator type card. Iroas (R/W) will he combat oriented. And I have NO FREAKING CLUE what Kruphix (G/U) will do. I'm still stumped on the possibilities for his abilities.

Thank you all for your input, this was very informing and helpful.

JWiley129 - Kruphix Im betting will have some kind of +1/1 counter ability. G/U likes that kind of shenanigans lately.

G/U also loves crazy creature shenanigans- and I'm lovin' that approach.

True true, just take Kiora, the Crashing Wave for example. Who doesn't like 9/9 Krakens? Too bad the giant sushi's aren't in colors that can give Unblockable, Hexproof, or Trample... oh wait they are lol

It's likely that Kruphix's abilities will jive well with Courser of Kruphix and Prophet of Kruphix . Just sayin'.
Likely some sort of ability that manipulates your lands to give greater value to both Courser and Prophet, even if only in a subtle way.

NobodyPicksBulbasaur - What if Kruphix is a reverse Karametra? "Whenever you play a Forest or Island, search your library for a creature with converted mana cost equal to the number of lands you control and put it into your hand."? Or is that too powerful?

sound like something Wizard would defiantly do. Makes Kruphix a big threat if that's the ability. Im guessing Pharika will have an ability similar to Nylea, God of the Hunt , just more deadly. Same story with Athreos and Heliod, God of the Sun .

NobodyPicksBulbasaur- That name tag couldn't be more true lol

That's far too powerful. I'm thinking something even as simple as "You may plan an extra land during each of your turns." She'll probably cost 4 or 5, so that effect won't be overpowering, but it will make Courser of Kruphix extremely good when both are on the field.

Keranos - for each instant or sorcery you cast during your turn tap or untap target permanent. Or draw a card for each instant cast during opponents turn. Pharika- At the beginning of your attack phase place the top card of your library into your graveyard : target creature gets +x+x or -x-x. Where x is that cards converted mana cost.(i guess that one might seem kind of weak.) Or Creatures you control have deathtouch GB1 :regenerate target creature. Athreos- When Athreos becomes a creature choose a color. All creatures you control have protection from chosen color as long as Athreos remains a creature.(that one is WAYYYY too powerful) Or pay X life return target creature from your graveyard to the battlefield X is that creature's converted mana cost. Iroas- Creatures you control get +1+1 for each enchantment you control( too powerful but i have my fingers crossed) or At the begininning of your attack phase put into play x 2/1 cleric tokens where X is the highest power of creatures you control. Those tokens have haste.Remove those tokens from the game at the end of your turn. Kruphix- GU2: target creature gains hexproof,trample and reach until the end of turn. Or creatures you control have Tap: Tap target permanent. (that last one might make for a lockdown in games IDK.) I am sure i am way so far off that it is ridiculous but that was fun.

NobodyPicksBulbasaur- Ya that sound alot more fair. Draw land cards would make it very nasty together.
