Ob Nixilis is my second favorite Planeswalker only due to Nicol Bolas being just crazy cool. I do feel that he will be the deciding factor in a later story so I can't see him working for Bolas.
@@jesok3761 well the madness was from slowly turning into a demon. But to address the original question, the contract may be preventing the curse from taking hold, according to Vess.
They should use hedrons on Nicol Bolas to trap him on Ravnica, then the planeswalkers take control of Tezeret and use Planer Bridge on the eternals and Nicol Bolas to trap them on Amonkhet, and then throw the immortal sun on the plane for good measure
I would absolutely love to see a video about my favourite Planeswalker Sarkhan. He‘s one of the characters which fate is just unclear and he has a major connection to both Bolas and Ugin. He could just be killed by Bolas or maybe he could work as sort of a double agent? I mean, Bolas doesn‘t know he‘s with Ugin yet...
Im planning already to use him for brawl or commander. Ive also already planned my cards to go with him. Its mostly artifacts right now that lets opponents draw cards which activate ob nixilis skill
Can we please get a lore video on Parhelion? When I saw the spoiler card I went full on Timmy mode. Now all I want is just to force that big dumb spaceship in the next year of magic :D
-10: Ob Nixilis becomes a 10/10 creature with lifelink, trample, and first strike until the end of turn. All planeswalkers your opponents control become X/X creatures and fight Ob Nixilis if able, X being the number of loyalty counters on each planeswalker. You choose the order in which the fights occur.
After the War of the Spark trailer and seeing Dack die, and possibly Liliana too, I came up with the theory that the planeswalkers from the Mythic Editions will die. I looked over it again and I feel that they all COULD die except for maybe Deretti and Dack as they seemed the most out of place to me, but now Dack is dead
Can we get a video later on that shows what all the planeswalkers on Ravnica are doing during the events of war of the spark? It's just a lot to follow and find when it isn't really in one whole peice.
Ob Nixilis always reminds me of Megatron from Transformers, but a version of Megatron that went unchecked an was successful in his ambitions. I've always like Ob Nixilis though.
So we get Khalni Heart Expedition, but we don't get the actual artifact of the flower itself, or perhaps a legendary plant. I feel this is a disservice and now I'm wondering what might have been. I saw this in my feed and just had to chime in.
Maybe as a result of Liliana Dying, Bolas will promise to turn Ob Nixilis back with the chain veil IF he would destroy the gatewatch from within. Kind of like a secret spy or something similar.
How cool would it be for Ob Nixilis to run into Nahiri during her battle with Sorin (not like he needs it) and they team up to lay the smack down on her. Ob would then tell Sorin to join him in his plans of destruction and Sorin will tell him to fuck off but owes him one in the future, setting up a heel turn for Sorin at least temporarily.
How powerful do you think these "beacons" are going to be that attract Planeswalkers? A thought had occurred to me. We get a new Angrath don't we? Like, he's gonna go to Ravnica? Well, I'm confused. After being trapped on Ixilan for so long and just recently being reunited with his daughters after so long, you'd think he would NEVER risk planeswalking anywhere else again unless there was a really major reason too.
My far flung theory is that he helps kill Nahiri, becomes the acquaintance of Sorin (let’s be honest, even if they are kinda cut from the same cloth, they could never be friends), and eventually go on to ally with Garruk
I feel like Dak isn't perminantly dead. They mysteriously left off with him going to the literal underworld of Theros. What was he doi g there? What did he take? An artifact of Athreos?
This was a great video! I’ve always wondered how ob became a demon and you answered that flawlessly! Also, do you think we’ll get to see his home plane soon? Like for some reason life flourished in the time he’s been away? If he’s premending then it’s possible the mending fixed it right?
Better is hard to say. He for sure has hundreds of years of experience to pull from which trumps Gideon. Ob has conquered several worlds through his strategies. That speaks a lot.
Aether Hub is such a great channel. What happened to the narrated lore with voiceovers though? Hour Of Devastation just isn’t the same without Nicol Bolas’ deep, arrogant, mocking voice!
Showed Ob Nixilis' Cruelty to one of my friends, now she wants a copy to send as hate mail to her friend who plays Derevi. She specifically wanted to see the card because I mentioned he was torturing birds.
I don’t think he’ll become good after that I feel like he will try to reap some benefits from the death of bolas and become an even greater threat maybe He doesn’t seem to be the type to switch sides
The moment I saw Ob Nixilis, the Fallen, I immediately thought he was Bo Levar. Just because Ob is Bo backwards. I thought maybe when he lost his spark, he did something to become a demon and he reversed his name out of anger/spite. Just my 2 cents.
No way in all of the multiverse is this Ob Nixilis better than the new Tibalt. Ob gives card advantage at the cost of a measly shock while Tibalt shuts out the plethora of life gain in standard.
@Random Username Just fighting Nicol Bolas is not enough to make a change to anti-hero, especially when his reasons for fighting Bolas would be anything but heroic.
