Destructive Revelry - Magic the Gathering

Only you can prevent satyr fires.

Okay, so I've actually read the first installment of the Planeswalker's Guide to Theros. Some new things I've learned. Cymede is the queen. I could have figured that out if I bothered to red the flavor text on Calvary Pegasus. There are at least five gods on the plane, each one aligned to a different color. It is said the gods are living enchantments, implying that Theros has an enchantment theme, which explains several cards from M14, and that there will either be enchantment creature, or enchantments that can animate into creatures.

If enchantments turns out to be a major theme, and if there are a bunch of creatures who are also enchantments, this card can be really good in limited. It would act the same way artifact removal behaved in both Mirrodin blocks. Until I actually see one of this enchantment creatures though, this card is going to be stuck in a sideboard.

Let's review what we can actually see. The art is a bunch of satyrs gathered around a fire and hurling a shield into it. It appears satyrs will be this plane's equivalent of goblins, not to bright beings who like to burn things. The card's multicolored, because the blocks that dovetail next to multicolor blocks tend to have some additional multicolor support. We also have a quote from Xenagos, the Reveler, a title that becomes much less impressive if you replace reveler with party animal.

One minor detail I'd like to point out is how this red green card actually aligns pretty well with the philosophy and practices of the red and green gods, Purphoros and Nylea. Purphoros likes to melt stuff down so he can forge it into something new, so the ability works with him. Nylea dislikes any man or anything man-made disturbing her natural order, so she also would support scrapping this junk. It's just a little flavor thing that works really well. Odds are, this card is part of an allied colors cycle, so we'll see if the other cards join the philosophies of their two gods.
