I really liked the entries this week! Nice job.

Hmm, as for my entry... Why not "The doors of death won't be undone by an undevoted heart. The moment doubt seeps in, and you look back upon the folly of your plunder, Erebos' whip will already be wrapped tightly around your throat."

"To give life, you must die"

"Orpheus came so close to rescuing his love, were it not for the Deceit of Phenax" -Tales of Theros

"When you have nothing left, anything becomes possible"

Gotta love that sweet Greek flavor! Keep up the good work my friend!

You guys flatter me too much.

Not complaining though.

I think this week was the best one so far.

"One down, two to go."

Well, to take you down a peg - honestly, these are my least favorite entries in the series.

Thassa's Emissary was very weak compared to the rest. Thassa really does not do riddles or tests to check the smarts of her followers.

I had to read the Daxos one two times before understanding it - the "as/as" structure is kind of clunky. I think there is a missing "much" in that sentence to make it more parsable.

Pyxis of Pandemonium is literally pandora's box on a ccard; the card text captures the flavor well, while the flavor text you suggested does not.

Magma Jet one I do not get at all. What sacrifice? Scry 2 is wisdom beyond measure? Is this supposed to be Purphoros flavored.

Titan's Strength was the one I liked the most.

Congratulations BlazingAbsol!

"When you are willing to commit the ultimate sacrifice, Erebos will grant you the ultimate power."

"As he pushed the dagger into his heart, he cried out to Erebos 'she is not yours. Give her back to me!' - Erebos was pleased by his sacrifice."

I would also like to put in my vote for the next couple of sets to do. I would vote for Kamigawa next, then Alara. Both are different in the sense of their themes and concepts in Magic, plus I think we can get some interesting and different kind of flavor texts.

Erebos things he have full control of the underworld, but he was proven wrong often by heros going in and out as they want.

Thanks for choosing me last time Deco_y!

Anyway, for today's submission:

"No god can stop me from saving my loved one. Not even Erebos."

Also, I'd like to cast my vote for Alara next, especially Esper. I've always been fascinated with a world that's completely regulated and controlled by artifice, even to the point of creating the iconic flat and split clouds.

I was thinking a long time for this week awesome challenge. The card text and art really set the flavor and I think the card works perfectly fine without it. But given the opportunity:

"I would venture into the caverns dark,
fight three-headed monsters that bark,
sail the river of memories on a barque -
Erebos shall not extinguish our spark."

For the first Champions, "going to hell and back" meant triumphing over some great hydra or cyclops. Now, the phrase has taken on a more literal meaning.

Any choice for something is also a choice against something else.

There comes a time when heroes learn the true meaning of devotion.

Just seeing this series for the first time, and I like it! I'll be sure to tune back in.

"All that are lost, can be returned. Venture into the black, and guide them home."

"The lost have no ambition to return, you have to change their mind."

or

No soul can cross the river, unless a hero guides it.

I do love me some theros flavor. I hope WotC will return soon.

"Many don't know this, but getting to the underworld is easy. Getting back, however-well, that's where it gets sticky"

Congrats to the winner!
