Description
The cycle of cavaliers, introduced in M20, are all 5-drop creatures in their respective colors that carry an interesting ETB, keyword ability, and death trigger. They exemplify their colors in various ways and also have 3 colored pips in their casting cost. While that makes them difficult to cast outside of mono-colored decks, it does mean they carry a hefty benefit if you care about your devotion. Now that Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx is available in Explorer, these cards become much more playable and can result in some interesting high-flying gameplay.
Overthinking MTG is a podcast where our host, HamHocks42, takes a look at a random card from Magic: the Gathering and talks about it for a while. Often, though, he ends up yammering about whatever's on the top of his mind that the card reminds him of and a half hours passes and it turns out all he's done is share his thoughts on recent news related to Commander, Magic: the Gathering Arena, Modern, Pioneer, Standard, or humorous anecdotes from his kitchen table jank days.
