Our first khan is Zurgo Helmsmasher, the khan of the Mardu clan. Zurgo is a 7/2 Orc Warrior that casts for 2 colorless, one red, one white, and one black. His abilities are haste, has to attack each turn, industructible if it is your turn, and whenever a creature dealt damage by Zurgo dies, put a +1/+1 counter on Zurgo.
Zurgo is probably one of my favorite khans. When this bad boy hits the table, you know that shit is going down. If you don't have an answer for him, he is going to be a huge problem for the rest of the game.
Zurgo Helmsmaher has a lot of upsides. Seven power is huge and since he has haste you can send him into battle right as he hits the board, putting on massive pressure. Another upside is that he benefits from your opponent chump blocking. Once they chump block Zurgo, he just gets bigger. The best part is that he has indestructible on your turn! You can send him into any board state expecting him to get bigger or get in a ton of damage.
Although Zurgo is is really good card, he does have some downsides. His major downside is that he only has indestructible on your turn. Since he has low toughness, he is easily killed by most removal. Zurgo also has to attack each turn, so you don't even have the choice to block with him.
If you haven't already noticed, Zurgo Helmsmasher is very good. He can fit in a lot of different strategies, but goes best in agro decks. As long as you have ways to protect Zurgo until he gets bigger, he can be a game finishing card.
Our second Khan is Narset, Enlightened Master, the khan of the Jeskai clan. Narset is a 3/2 Human Monk that cast for 3 colorless, a blue, a red, and a white. She has first strike, hexproof, and whenever Narset attacks, exile the top four cards of your library. Until end of turn, you may cast noncreature cards exiled this way without paying their mana costs.
I'm definitely not the biggest fan of Narset, but she is still pretty good. Anyone with first strike is very good, especially in this format. Hexproof is also nice just to make sure she can't be targeted by those pesky kill shots. Her last ability... is very circumstantial and involves a lot of luck. Narset has to be in a tempo deck, else she is not at all worth to play. Also, you could brick and end up exiling a bunch of creatures or lands and not getting any spells!
Narset, Enlighten Master is a card that has to be put into the right deck. If you find the right home for Narset she will lead you to victory!
That's all I have to say about the Khans of Tarkir set, now we have to wait... FOR FATE REFORGED!!! I'll see you guys next time for some more reviews on Magic.
