I think they should have killed off most of the plains walkers in War of the Spark so Nicol Bolas would have gone in magic history an amazing villain but like 2 people died and now they have way to many characters. Instead he did absolutely nothing but bring down a few buildings.
@VFenris61844 жыл бұрын
What I’d like to think is that after the events of war of the spark, the energy of Bolas’s elder spell failing spread out from ravnica and to other planes. Giving more magical energy to other planes that can give sparks to those that couldn’t gain them. So if we think of it like that, planeswalkers could be popping up more often then usual. However that’s just my opinion anyway.

Calix's very being was created for one purpose. Theros, being based on belief, allowed his spark-ignition to occur, because he believed it needed to. Clothys knew about the god-walker Xenagos, so that realization may have been passed on to Calix.

Found this on the mtg wiki figured it would help a little Calix is artificially created and artificial creatures normally can't spark. Doug Beyer explained that artificial creatures like Angels and Demons which are manifestations of mana do not have the right soul/essence to hold a spark.[4] While Calix is an enchantment, per se, he is indirectly made by mortals. Mortals' belief made the gods in their image, who in turn made a creature with a very mortal-like soul. It is implied that Calix's spark ignites because his entire purpose, his existence, is dedicated to the pursuit of Elspeth and he can't fulfill that without a spark and that strong desire and belief (which is a particularly strong influence on Theros) is what helped him push further.

so i wanted to wait for the video to finish to see if you brushed on the subject, and you sort of did, but i feel the reason Calix worked, and by that i mean had a soul, is because of who/what it was that created him. unlike Urza whos just a planswalker, Klothys is a god, every plane is unique, with varying lore as to the creation of life, all of which could very well be true for that plane. i know that it was mortal life believing in gods that made them real, but if the mortals of Theros believed the god's had the ability to create soul's, wouldn't they just have that ability. this is a long winded way to say that i think because the creature type that made Calix was a God, they would have that ability inherent to them, planewalkers may have been treated like god's, and in many cases were more powerful then them, but this is the real deal, only a god can create life from scratch perfectly, i just feel like thats kind of their thing.

Hmmm you refer to the Nyxborn as artificial and constructs, but I believe they are just another form of life coming to be as all other “regular” life forms are on Theros. Even though their way of being born is more unique. It reminds me of the short lived (unless vampiric) Aetherborn on Kaladesh, though born differently, they seem to have souls and may as well be like other forms of life like humans, dwarfs, and elves from the plane. These life forms seem far less artificial that those of phyrexia. As for being different from demons and angels, it seems harder to differentiate them. Perhaps the cycle of demons and angels dying and “resurrecting “ disrupts this planeswalker compatibility making them more artificial mana beings. Just my theory on this ^_^

I saw another comment after a TON of scrolling that voices my own thoughts on the subject of Sparks. And that is, The Elderspell. While I’m not entirely sure what all was entailed by it, Planeswalker Sparks were a major component of the spell, to the point that Bolas was making NEW walkers on Ravnica during the War of the Spark to make himself a god (or god-like as Planeswalkers were before the mending). We know that sparks were essentially torn out of mortals, and fueled the spell. It makes me wonder, after Calix, if the spell changed the Essence of the Planeswalker Spark. We had Pre-Mending Walkers, Post-Mending(modern) Walkers. The spell may be something similar to The Mending, with all the concentrated mana and sparks changing the core of the multiverse in a way thag we will now have the new “Post-War Walkers”, a new generation that will follow their predecessors in shaping the multiverse. And are possibly with fewer limitations upon them, as Nyxborn are Aether given mortal shape, but not mortal body. They are very much Walking Souls that will turn to nothing if and when they perish, after all. Anyways, that was just a theory of mine, and I’m excited for more of the Post-War Walkers to be revealed to us! Didn’t we have a set of Twins who share a spark in Eldraine, something that I haven’t heard of in recent memory. That’s likely the first example of a Post-War spark we were introduced to, and Calix is the latest.

This is something I've pondered since Theros first introduced actual God cards to the game; Planeswalkers themselves were the closest thing in MTG lore to being actually omnipotent beings pre-mending. Theros itself is an utterly unique plane in the MTG world and the existence of actually omnipotent and omniscient (within their frame of being) beings does pose some interesting questions about the nature of their existence - Nyx itself is quite probably energy from the Blind Eternities and Theros is simply a world with unique qualities which allows that energy to manifest, unto actual Gods being formed of ideas and mana. Either way, if anyone can create a being capable of bending the rules of the mulitverse, would it not be a God?

Ob nixilis's spark was only suppressed because when he fought Nahiri on zendikar eons ago she shoved a small hedron into him, suppressing his spark and his power. Later conflicts resulted in his hedron being removed, and by manipulating the hedrons during the eldrazi conflict, he channeled enough of zendikars mana into himself to forcibly reignite his spark. All that said, he was initially cursed by the chain veil long before that all happened, and it was in search of a means to break that curse, lured by the rich mana of the plane, that led him to zendikar in the first place.

What if the magic put into Calix made it possible for a spark to be created? I mean, he seems pretty tailor made to the task of brining in Elspeth. Elspeth is a Planeswalker. It stands to reason that we may not know just how powerful destiny magic really is. Perhaps he was given a mortal soul unknowingly. That being the only way a being like Elspeth could possibly be brought back, it was part of his creation. I mean, this is a multiverse where some people can SHARE a spark merely by virtue of being twins. That's pretty awkward too.

Calixs spark ignited because he was created to guide fate ergo keep elspeth from leaving the underworld he failed at that which basically broke him proving that his entire existence was useless because he couldn't chase her but now his spark then ignites where the trauma met devotion

She didn't create his spark. She, as the god of fate, fated him to have one.

What I don't get is that the artificial creations built by klothy's have emotions. How is that possible and wouldn't that effect the future because they can get emotionally attached to things

There is nothing in magic that says nyxborn do not have mortal souls. On Theros, being nyxborn isn't artificial, it's a natural form of birth unique to the plane. Also don't forget Memnarch built a spark transferring machine so obviously sparks can move.

I honestly think this retcon is for the best. I think it should be if you have a soul, you can Planeswalk.

I thought the planeswalkers of mirrodin were also artificial. I may be wrong because it's been a while since I've even read the lore, but I'm pretty sure Memnarch gave the plane life to farm for a planeswalker spark to put into himself to spite Karn.

My head cannon is that Klothys used Xenagos soul to craft Calix. Xenagos died in Nyx, so his sould could have still been there for Klothys to capture ans repurpose.

Hey Aethur Hub... fun theory... what if Calix's spark was taken from Xenagos? Would be interesting and fit with the lore. Though I will admit the impossibility as Xenagos is pretty much dead.

some time ago my friends would argue with me, because i would say demons could go to any plane. but they argued with me because MaRo didnt list them as beings able to planeswalk.

Personally I think that there is no discernible restriction on who or even what can be a Planeswalker, only that the powers that be beyond the blind eternities acknowledge their existence. If anything, BECOMING a Planeswalker might have a greater effect on somebody than the event which ignited their spark. As I suspect the case may be for Calix. As a Nyxborne manifested directly by a goddess, you would think that Calix would be merely a construct, a pawn, without soul or will of their own and only the simulation of such to better aid their purpose. But by igniting his spark at the existential crisis he had confronting Elspeth, we might see him struggle with newfound independence and soul granted by his spark. I think a heel face turn is in the works for Calix.

I don't think this is a retcon for how sparks work. If anything, it's a retcon for how Nyxborn work.

I mean when a walker dies (xenagos) their spark jumps around to another worthy vessel mayhaps when xenagos gave his spark to be a god klothys got ahold of it somehow?

I still think Klothys should have been Naya colours (red/green/white) fate and destiny= nature. Calix needs ''Calix counts as an enchantment'' added on the card What about Karn? :P

The wrong god was chosen to do this in my opinion. Klohtys should have asked Kruphix to create her new champion since the latter god instantly learns everything that anyone who steps into the plane knows. The only thin excuse that I can see happening is since she and Xenagos share the same colors, she used his Spark to form Calix.

Considering Klothys's role in the pantheon, I don't understand why she's red-green. Her purpose is to maintain the order of fate. She should be white instead of red.

Karn actually has 2 sparks. Gerrad had a spark that had not ignited and Urza's
