5 color Legendary Ally

Spoilers, Rumors, and Speculation forum

Posted on Oct. 3, 2015, 9:55 a.m. by Chandrian

In the stories and stuff allies are creatures from all colors working together to defeat the Eldrazi. Since all the colors are working together to achieve this, I was wondering if flavorwise it wouldn't make sense to have 5-color allies...

So, simple question, do you guys think we'll ever get a 5-color ally? Or will we ever see a 5-color legendary ally (for EDH) ?

That would seem fun but hard.

Unless it's like;

Ashaya Returned

Legendary Creature - Elemental Ally.

5/5

I couldn't see what storyline character it would be. Jori En is a merfolk, not likely 5 colours, everybody else major is basically accounted for at this point. Unless they add a new character, which I suppose isn't impossible.

I think Tazri (spelling?) will most likely be our mythical 5-color legendary ally.

I would like to see... the Orphan Squad.

I could see there being a mono colored creature having an activated ability with all five colors, or a multicolored creature (probably R/W) with three separate abilities each costing one of the remaining colors (signifying that this character has learned from the other colors)

I think that another cool option storywise would be to have Nissa, Jace, Chandra, and Gideon (no clue how black fits into this) combine their magic to create an avatar to lead the Zendikari while they are away.

Tazri would've been a good fit I think... but he was a Kor and is now dead in the story, so unless they revive him with mana from all colors that won't happen.

Maybe one of the younglings in the Orphan Squad can make it as a 5-color legendary... they got their own color + black from Drana's influence... shouldn't be too hard to add the remaining 3 colors.

The unexpected would be to have Gideon, Drana, Chandra, Nissa and Jace to do something very "Dragon Ballesque" and to fuse into one legendary 5-color Anti-Eldrazi Elemental

I'm pretty sure Tazri is stil alive. The former Commander-General is dead, but not Tazri.

I think Ashaya Returned would be cool as a mono green converge legend with a 5C ability that does some rally effect.

I'm praying for a 5 color legend that has something along the lines of, "Whenever a nontoken Ally enters the battlefield under your control, put a 1/1 white Ally creature token onto the battlefield."

That would pretty much solidify my decision to build Ally EDH.

I'm just building a five color ally edh deck with Karona, the False God as the general.

Most people I've known who play allies just use Karona, False God. Play her and give all your allies +3+3 and dome them for a billion
