About Kiora Bests the Sea God

Kiora Bests the Sea God, Enchantment — saga, designed by Victor Adame Minguez first released in Jan, 2020 in the set Theros Beyond Death and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It see play in 1 formats: Commander.

This card would be beneficial in a control deck that focuses on stalling the opponent while building up a strong board presence. While Kiora Bests the Sea God offers powerful effects, it may be too slow for competitive play due to its high mana cost. Cards like Cyclonic Rift or Control Magic may be more versatile and efficient choices for similar effects in a deck.

Rules

01/24/20

Any nonland permanents that come under the target player’s control after the second chapter ability resolves will untap as normal.

01/24/20

Each symbol on the left of a Saga’s text box represents a chapter ability. A chapter ability is a triggered ability that triggers when a lore counter that is put on the Saga causes the number of lore counters on the Saga to become equal to or greater than the ability’s chapter number. Chapter abilities are put onto the stack and may be responded to.

01/24/20

Nonland permanents target opponent controls that are already tapped when the second chapter ability resolves won’t be tapped again, but they won’t untap during their controller’s next untap step.

01/24/20

Once a chapter ability has triggered, the ability on the stack won’t be affected if the Saga gains or loses counters, or if it leaves the battlefield.

01/24/20

Removing lore counters won’t cause a previous chapter ability to trigger. If lore counters are removed from a Saga, the appropriate chapter abilities will trigger again when the Saga receives lore counters.

01/24/20

The control-change effect of the third chapter ability lasts indefinitely. It doesn’t wear off during the cleanup step. In a multiplayer game, it does expire if you leave the game.
