Best 10 Mythics and Rares in Theros - Part 2

Its time to finish up the best 10 Mythics and Rares of Theros block!

5. At number five we have Xenagos, the Reveler. Xenagos is a planeswalker that casts for two colorless, one red and one green. His +1 ability is Add X mana in any combination of red and/or green to your mana pool, where X is the number of creatures you control. His +0 ability is put a 2/2 red and green satyr creature token with haste onto the battlefield. His -6 is Exile thetop seven cards of your library. You may put any number of creature and/or land cards from among them onto the battlefield. Xenagos is a fairly decent planeswalker. He is able to generate a whole bunch of mana if you have a whole bunch of creatures. Luckily, he is able to generate creatures for absolutely free and get creatures from your deck onto the battlefield fast. You can make your board presence huge once Xenagos hits the table.

4. At number four we have Brimaz, King of Oreskos. Brimaz is a 3/4 legendary cat soldier that casts for one colorless and two white. He has vigilance, whenever Brimaz attacks put a 1/1 white Cat soldier creature token with vigilance onto the battlefield attacking, and whenever Brimaz blocks a creature, put a 1/1 white cat soldier creature token with vigilance onto the battlefield blocking that creature. Brimaz is a very good card. A 3/4 for four is already good, especially when he generates another power and toughness whenever he attacks or blocks. Another pro is that he can attack AND block since he has vigilance, creating maximum kitties! (which also have vigilance)

3. At number three we have Hero's Downfall. Hero's Downf
all is an instant that casts for one colorless and two black and destroys target creature and planeswalker. Hero's Downfall is just a really good removal spell. You can kill a big creature or annoying planeswalker for just three mana! Hero's Downfall should definitely be on your list of good removal.

2. At number two we have Courser of Kruphix. Courser is a 2/4  centaur that casts for one colorless and two green. His abilities are, play with the top card of your deck revealed, you may play the top card of your deck if it's a land card, and whenever a land enter the battlefield, you gain one life. Courser is one of the most stroggest cards in standard right now and there is a reason for it. Being able to take lands off the top of your deck is awesome. It ensures that you are probasbly going to draw a spell instead of getting bricking and getting a land later in the game. Also, Courser is only three mana, so if you get this bad boy out early you'll get loads of life from playing all your lands.

1. At number one we have Elspeth, Sun's Champioin. Elspeth is a planeswalker that casts for 4 colorless and two white. Her +1 is put three 1/1 white soldier creature tokens onto the battlefield, her -3 is destroy all creatures with power 4 or greater, and her -7 is you get an emblem with "creatures you control get +2/+2 and have flying." Elpseth is one of the better planeswalkers in this set. Since her +1 gives you a bunch of tokens, she is very easy to defend and keep alive. Her -3 as just a board wipe so her 1/1 can get through and deal some damage. Last but not least, her ult just makes able to spawn three 3/3 fliers every turn, SO annoying!
