Legendary MTG dinosaur avatar stomps into reanimation Standard typal decks
A return to the plane of Ixalan is set to showcase a Magic: The Gathering dinosaur avatar called Gishath, Sun’s Avatar, revealed during Wizards of the Coast Lost Caverns of Ixalan spoilers on Oct. 24.
Reanimation decks across multiple MTG formats have thrived since the launch of Atraxa, Grand Unifier through ONE. Starting with the release of Lost Caverns of Ixalan (LCI) on Nov. 17, dinosaurs will get a chance to take over reanimation strategies through Gishath, Sun’s Avatar. The Legendary creature is more than a big stompy dinosaur as it supports Dinosaur typal in the Commander format, along with other MTG formats. It’s also a reprint from the original Ixalan set.
