Wow. It's alright, I think, but definitely not what I expected. This is vastly different from God-Eternal Bontu and Ilharg, the Raze-Boar. I guess this cycle will be completely unpredictable. So far, though, they do all cost 3 + two of their respective colors. So we can probably guess that God-Eternal Oketra will be 3WW, and God-Eternal Kefnet will be 3UU.
Not what I was expecting either. Bontu followed her original card closely. Rhonas is very different outside of the deathtouch. He seems very powerful for token decks.
Not exactly unpredictable; the Amonkhet gods look like they'll keep their original keywords, lose indestructible, and gain an ETB. Ilharg differs because they're not an eternalized god with a previous incarnation.
Edit: I wonder if this Rhonas originally gave all your creatures trample too, in line with his earlier version, but that was too strong with the power doubling so got changed to vigilance later.
I mean if you find a way to blink him or kill him off (sac outlet) he’d work. Otherwise, he’s a one hit and then a 5/5 beatstick. Same with Bontu since they’re abilities are only ETB. Could be useful as a commander though if the deck is built correctly.
Edit: why couldn’t it be trample and not vigilance. Would’ve possibility had a place in my hydra commander if it did!

Except Bontu is like Reprocess, Ilharg is like Sneak Attack, and Rhonas is like? Uhh... Nothing, really.

Actually you're right! I was so hyped for the card I completely missed that this is basically his +2/0 ability from the original card except for your whole board instead of just one creature and trample swapped out for vigilance.
UUGHHH staaaaaph Bolas Bontu was one thing but seeing the others are just so sad.
I'm gonna guess the zombie gods do stuff when they etb, if the flavor is keeping is should be a huge effect that can help turn a game (Bontu and Rhonas fit this so far).

okay it is the evergreen keyword of the old gods than and kind of a empowered version of the activate ability as ETB trigger. Rhonas get changed a little. I think trample was too good with the doubling ATK trigger.
Kefnet will obviously fly and Oketra will get double strike? If she get double strike than her attack will be the lowest 3 or maximal 4.

If you sacrifice Rhonas to Vannifar's ability, then his ability will trigger and go above hers on the stack. So Rhonas will be put into your library BEFORE you search and shuffle.
Rhonas looks good in a mono green agroo (10/4 steal leaf champions )
Going for tbeir last apearance’s activated abilities for the etb abilities like right. Maybe Oketra is amass X where x is the number of creature cards in play and graveyard(?)
So, for the record, I could cast a second Rhonas and legend rule the second and keep a 10 power Rhonas, right? Seems like there could be something interesting with the elf from DOM that taps for G equal to her power. I see Khefnet bouncing the field and Oketra having lifelink and causing the opponent to lose life equal to the life you gain. Like...Sanguine Bond? I think was the enchantment's name.

I just got the opposite answer in the thread about Tamiyo...
Well. That's a pretty powerful God.

God-Eternal Rhonas + Tamiyo, Collector of Tales + sac outlet = fun times.
Would Prime speaker Vannifar work or would she shuffle Rhonas into the library?

I suppose you're right. I was following the suggestion from the Bontu thread that they might all be from Urza's block.
Red got sneak attack
So green got sort of in a way craterhoof behemoth or berserk I think they wanted to are it trample but that would be busted for a standard format set
