Phlage, Titan of Fires Fury Phlage, Titan of Fire's Fury got banned out of Modern by storm thanks to its utility as a removal spell with lots of late-game value as a 6/6 threat
MTG has a dark, mature setting, while Pokmon is laid-back and cheery
Despite Battles only appearing in this one set so far, they have already begun to make an impact across multiple formats
Neither of them are what you want to be playing if your deck has 0 deserts in it, but as long as you have a few of them they perform quite well, and it wasnt unheard of to end up with 7+ in the format
My sole complaint is that Athreos costs 6 mana, which is an awful lot to ask for from the Command Zone, particularly given the incremental nature of its impact on a Commander game
