Happy Saturday MTG peeps,

Here was the blurb for the panel
Gods, heroes and monsters! What challenges will Planeswalker Elspeth Tirel face next? Learn more about this Hero’s Path as we "Journey Into Nyx "in the third set of the Theros block. Do you have what it takes to complete the Hero’s Path? Get a glimpse of the Journey Into Nyx, get the inside track on the Prerelease and talk to some of the key R&D and Program leaders from Wizards of the Coast. 





Here's a few of the Journey into Nyx spoilers and previews -

Wow, Athreos is crazy good with white / black weenies or creatures with enter the battlefield / leave play effects. We can make a disruptive human deck with High Priest of Penance, Sin Collector, Thoughtseize, Cartel Aristocrat and Xathrid Necromancer. Add in Immortal Servitude too just for the heck of it.

Polymorphous Rush... Biovisionary anyone? :D
