Theros is the first set in the Theros block. It is the 62nd Magic expansion and will be released on September 27,2013. Theros is a large expansion and will be followed by Born of the Gods and Journey into Nyx.
Set details
Theros has a ancient Greek themed top-down design, making use of many mythological tropes. It is the first set to thematically take place on the plane of Theros. Theros will be an enchantment block that plays off building blocks in M14. It's not just "enchantment matters".
Storyline
Theros is very dangerous land outside of the walled cities. Gods can take multiple forms and walk among mortals. The planeswalker Elspeth Tirel will fight a Hydra and attracts the attention of the god Heliod. Elspeth doesn't want to be a hero and does not believe she will be called on to be a leader in a world of gods.
