KOTH RETURNS?!? Koth The COMPLETE History | Magic: The Gathering Lore

[@pelusoft]

Awesome! Great way to start the year!

[@AetherHub]

Oh this year is gonna be a… COMPLEAT success

[@WitherFang]

@@AetherHub Oh dear... 😅

[@Gurt_The_Hurt]

Mirrodin will always be special to me because it was the set I started playing magic with, specifically Scars of Mirrodin. Venser being one of the first planeswalker card I ever got makes it and the lore all the more special.

[@RyanNerdyGamer]

Same, though it was O.G. _Mirrodin_ in my case, and my big first card in the set was Glissa Sunseeker.

[@rennac3152]

New Phyrexia*

[@knightstranded3415]

I love this because i started playing during the first Mirrodin and its importance in the lore is awesome over the years.

[@RyanNerdyGamer]

@@knightstranded3415 It’s been nearly two decades… I Karn hardly believe it! 🤯

[@RyanNerdyGamer]

A Telegram scammer has posted in this discussion. Everyone, please be extra vigilant. Have an awesome day. 😎

[@daviddent5662]

I had no idea he was so epic! One thing I do love about MTG is how many stories are just enfolded in sets and Planeswalkers themselves.

[@Warspud723]

This is more of a March of Machines theory but I think even if New Phyrexia is defeated their realmbreaker tree won’t be completely destroyed and could potentially allow non planeswalkers to traverse the multiverse

[@AetherHub]

Oh I agree.

[@DragonspineInfiniteZero]

Just means two things being a planeswalker is meaningless and very bad people will gain terrible power. Like imagine the sorins step mom becoming the guild pact or the dragons of dominaria in war with the dragon lords or Tarkir plus anyone who can discover the draft of divinity from haldheim

[@Urabrask]

That being said, factions across the multiverse like the Rakdos, the racist elves on Kaldheim and Negan can wreak havoc eclipsing Norn and her legion. Even worse the entire multiverse could collapse on itself, with a Marvel Secret Lair following it

[@AnimeProfilePicture]

Given that wilds of Eldraine and Ixalan are the following sets, it's safe to say March of the Machines aftermath will see Phyrexians losing. I believe there is gonna be a story reset via Teferi in the past

[@Carbuncle0168]

@@AnimeProfilePicture elesh phyrexians will lose but urabrask phyrexians will win

[@hnjahnjah]

One of my favorite characters in the magic story by far. Such a tragic tale and him still finding the strength to move onwards and fight is absolutely inspiring.

[@PubStompMTG]

Good to get a recap on Koth. I wish his new card was a little more powerful. But red doesn't have great luck when it comes to Phyrexia.

[@AetherHub]

Yeah I was kinda annoyed that his first new print in like a decade was at rare.

[@kalbz2991]

yes. his new print is heart breaking..

[@kanevivi]

@@kalbz2991 the fact he is still alive is what I kinda am suprised.

[@kalbz2991]

@@kanevivi I somehow knew he still is. maybe bcoz im thinking all the darksteel he used to have, could have saved his life. i dunno for sure, but i have the gut feel

[@kanevivi]

@@kalbz2991 well true I doubt it was as strong as urza's but still he planned to wipe out the prators with it. It shouldnt be weal even with darksteel other things got corrupted so he would probably plan with it but who knows. Good to see him though. Also if they go and wake up emrakul or the slivers I wonder what will happen.

[@billvolk4236]

Koth is looking weirdly good for someone who has had a harder time than Elspeth's stint in literal hell.

[@devonking8834]

My all time favorite Walker, stoked you made this video. Chef's kiss

[@AjaniGoldmaneFFXIV]

low key, koth kinda cool :0 hope he doesnt die

[@AetherHub]

We shall see. Him only getting a rare printing in ONE kinda got me mad though

[@coopervaughter1440]

TH-cam: aether hub has a new vi...
Me: say no more

[@AetherHub]

Well I’m glad to see the notifications worked 🥹

[@auraaetherbladesigma6939]

My personal (Far fetched) prediction for the aftermath of March of the Machines, Urabrask and his aligned Phyrexian followers would become permanent residence of the new Mirrodin. Considering IF either New Phyrexia doesn’t blow up in the end, or Urabrask and his followers gets obliterated by Elesh Norn. :P

[@AnimeProfilePicture]

I feel like one of 3 things will happen
1. Urabrask is killed in All will be one
2. Urabrask was lying the whole time
3. I personally feel like Urabrask is gonna become a planeswalker similar to how Karn did maybe even by Karn's spark as I don't see Karn surviving

[@Urabrask]

I'd hope so, I still have my lease up for another year

[@GodxOfxObelisk]

Glad I found the time to watch this in one go. There's still so many complete history videos I've not yet been able to watch though. Hope your budding family had a great holiday and new year.

[@AetherHub]

We are doing great thanks for asking! The holidays are always a hectic time, made even more so with an infant haha

[@GodxOfxObelisk]

@AetherHub We surrounded our first little guy with everyone's presents, and my brother in law got a professor of his to come as a Santa to take pics with him.

[@yokoyokome5281]

Nice to have you back with a awesome lore aether. Happy late new years

[@ismene6546]

Thank you for another great video! I can't to find out more!

[@henryterhune8328]

Oh heck yeah! Glad to see the new video!
Btw, Seiben, do you think that the reveal of Jor Kadeen as leader of the resistance in Boros focusing on equipment bodes well for Nahiri (the Boros equipment planeswalker) remaining incompleat?

[@AetherHub]

I think so OR maybe just as a mechanic she steals equipment. You can see it either way

[@Happytremereinc]

Can't wait for your story videos on the next few sets

[@SenryW]

late comment, but I always found it interesting how different the vulshok are from humans, yet are considered as such. Also, being mostly red-aligned is pretty unique in magic, being humans and all.

[@kylesalisbury5371]

I would love to see you do a lore series on a more in depth history for mirrodin. As well as your telling of the stories that went with each of the old mirrodin blocks

[@kanevivi]

Thought he did awhile back? Did they get taken down?

[@jorgesolano1703]

love your videos, thanks a lot

[@Lyes669]

Just as i tought. I could enjoy one of your lore stories.

[@AetherHub]

Well I’m so glad you enjoyed it :)

[@jxj13]

I loved this trip down memory lane. I remember when Elspeth kinda sucked as a character with her constant crying and we can never forget the ol Wintermute "Foamed at the mouth as she attacked" every time she saw a phyrexian.

[@PauloMattosH]

greetings from Peru ! great Video!

[@AetherHub]

Love to see it! Thank you

[@ebonstone2980]

Man, planeswalkers fly into a lot of rages...

[@rennac3152]

The fact they become walkers by agony or stress, I’m not surprised

[@MrShawnshall]

Koth of the hammer ...super good one

[@Hysube]

I missed you friendo, hope all is well with the family and life

[@jessiegashler427]

There's something important about the material used to make the blade on new koths axe. The new jor kadeen has a weapon with a blade made of the same material

[@gprat1989]

Didn't Karn also make the mirrari to gather info but it cracked, so he retrieved it and reshaped it into memnarch??? If I remember right lol (ps love your vids)

[@AetherHub]

Yeah memnarch was crafted from the mirari. You’re right :)

[@TheKillerman3333]

not gunna lie, i was hoping he would be our red completed plainswalker

[@T4N7]

Y is Koth white in the comic at 14:43-15:50?

[@hoagie9209]

Karn next!

[@TheKillerman3333]

Venser's sliver is technically still alive, meaning the slivers are still around in one shape otr another. we might get a pherexian sliver. there is already a sliver with the pherexian watermark on it.

[@Insane-Howl-Cowl]

Have they explained how now Planeswalkers are getting to New Phyrexia? Or are the allies merely people ready to fight on their home planes?

[@Case2_0]

AYYYY

[@AetherHub]

Thanks for watching as always :)

Can’t help but think the Vulshock are related to the Bolshack

[@vincentsaldana2827]

Koth means king of the hill

[@halowolf343]

I have a feeling that due to Jace being revealed as being compleated. The Phyrexians already know of Koth and his plans. And may result in the death of Elsbeth.

[@AetherHub]

I bet you’re right. And they may be walking into ANOTHER slaughter

[@3kojimbles895]

nah, elspeth has to live for plot progression. she probably will be the one to detonate the sylex

[@sewykik5004]

highly unlikely that elspeth dies due to the side story in which elspeth is portrayed as the bane of elesh norn

[@jefbessey551]

[@reefalefunk1244]

For sure thought koth would get compleated

[@Kozi15]

Can't wait for Emrakul to dust these compleated abominations.

[@garrettsmith4034]

See the problem is that Koth didn't ride Urabrask into combat. We were robbed of Koth, Champion of Urabrask.

[@CimInc]

Jace is compleated though...

[@rennac3152]

Not confirmed last I checked, every walker has a concept card of being perfected in such a way

[@ErasMcras]

The vulshok lore hurts. Like they are master's of forging armor but they favor loinclothes. Why wotc? Why did you make a "tribal" people and have them not even use armor when it's available. And why is their only planeswalker black?

[@dragonlord99999z]

I thought he died

[@death66663]

He is a brother praise to another survivor who kept up the fight

[@solivagant2918]

With many of the Gatewatchers compleated, MtG lore is about to enter it's Eternals phase, with a slew of diverse, mediocre and forgettable main characters.

[@black_iron_tarkus2375]

[@solivagant2918]

@@black_iron_tarkus2375 I think Jace should simply have retreated and paired up with the only character that he had an innate empathy with, Nissa. But true, others eventually would have to take the lead, but do they have to look so Disney/Marvel?
