The Story of Ikoria Explained | MTG Lore

[@magnetronman298]

I had never looked up the lore on ikoria and assumed lukka was a good guy which caused a big surprise reading the strixhaven story

[@finnzaan2829]

These videos are really great! Thank you for making them.

[@TheLorebrarians]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

MoM spoilers. I think for the MoM side stories being my first introduction to Ikoris made it a favorite, and after hearing this I wouldn't say I like Lucca or will miss him too much. I like the monsters dominance, hypermutation, bonding. What I may miss is Lucca being dead possibly meaning that Ikoria may not have a planeswalker to keep it tangentially relevant to the story. I do like Vivian though so if Ikoria becomes her new home since her planes gone I'm ok with that.

Thank you for this abridged version of the story.

Love the vids man, I’m surprised you don’t have more views cause I love your content.

[@krackendaphker4044]

Also is this the actual lore? Or was some parts added

[@TheLorebrarians]

Thanks, I really appreciate it! Almost all of it is actual lore which can be found in the references listed. A few things aren't specifically stated but can be inferred from flavor text or artwork.

Did I just miss it or does blue not make an appearance in the story thread, other than a brief reference to the human monster bond? Also thanks a ton for the video

[@TheLorebrarians]

Since the story mainly follows Lukka, Vivien, and Drannith blue doesn't get much representation (storywise). Most of the spotlight cards are red to align with Lukka as the central character. But blue has good lore bits outside the story!

I like Ikoria. It reminds me of the legend of the first avatar from the legend of Korra

[@AraghastThePillager]

I don't know much MtG lore, but what I do know makes me think that somehow Bolas is involved. Even if it's just a shelved project of his that's been hanging around post War of the Spark.

[@LIFAD97]

This set had the best crossover with Godzilla

[@trap2zeroify]

A very good video, thanks indeed.

[@mikeyjesse9376]

Did you ever create a video on your theory behind the ozilith?

[@TheLorebrarians]

I made a short video discussing the ozolith and my thoughts on the voice behind it

[@h0yj0y]

Thank you so much! :D

[@mikechua4893]

[@bathsaltcircus9630]

Awesommmmme

[@DarthSironos]

I liked the story it until the cat died. That was a severe downer. Still a fine video.

[@kelsien6707]

I came here for lore about kelsien now i still don’t know anything about him

[@TheLorebrarians]

I have a minute myth video about him. Sadly, he doesn't have much in the way of lore

[@Vash77]

Miss understood hero

[@a_hidden_one]

OZOLITH. It's pronounced ozolith, like wizard of OZ oz-Olith
