The third deck is the Growing Threat precon. It's a WB artifact deck with proliferate and recursion subthemes. Phyrexia's champion on Theros, Brimaz, Blight of Oreskos, is joined by Moira and Teshar. Decklist is here.
Lots of Phyrexians in these tokens. It's probably nothing. Note that each pair of tokens presented here moving forward represents 1 double-faced token.
I was looking forward to seeing the decklist because Brimaz had soooo much potential to have good synergies and payoffs, but the decklist lacks any sort of coherence and contains soooo many out of place cards. Instead of being a Phyrexian deck, my friend pointed out this is really an Artifact Creatures deck with a Phyrexian subtheme, which really deflates my hype. I guess this explains the egregious includes like Psychosis Crawler, Myr Battleshere, Shattered Angel(ugh), and the weird Golem subtheme. As others have noted on other forums, there's only one MoM card here, and it's just an uncommon; no other Incubate support from the set, nor do we get any new Toxic cards. Guess I'll be getting Brimaz and a singles from here because I am not buying the whole deck for the few cards I like.
Ooooh, snap! The Abyss is getting a Planechase card!
I've been wondering if they'd ever actually expand on that - it's been referenced with a lot of stuff, like Belzenlok or Reaper From the Abyss - but it seemed like Creative wasn't really into it. I guess with the Phyrexians and Bolas out of the way as threats (for now), we're probably going to see some more BBEG's brewing, and this would be a great point to introduce "that place all the f****ng demons have been coming from" into the Magic story proper.
