Item Description

Every planeswalker has a beginning, and Gideon's starts here, on a battlefield in Theros. Kytheon, Hero of Akros is a 2/1 for a single white mana with a simple, thrilling condition: if he and at least two other creatures attacked this combat, he is exiled at end of combat and returns transformed into Gideon, Battle-Forged. For two generic and one white mana he gains indestructible until end of turn, so he can stay in the fight long enough to make it happen.

The planeswalker side starts at 3 loyalty and gives you real choices: +2 to force an opposing creature to attack Gideon on its next turn, +1 to make one of your creatures indestructible and untap it, or 0 to turn Gideon himself into a 4/4 indestructible creature that prevents all damage dealt to him that turn. That is a lot of game from a one-drop, and it rewards go-wide white decks, Boros aggro and Commander token strategies that can send three attackers on the very first big swing.

Magic Origins, the 2015 core set, told the backstories of five planeswalkers through legendary creatures that transform into planeswalkers, and Kytheon is Gideon's chapter. This is the Magic Origins printing, collector number 23, a mythic rare illustrated by Willian Murai, in non-foil.
