Description

--- **Theros Beyond Death** is a Magic: The Gathering expansion revisiting Theros with Elspeth's underworld escape amid godly rivalries, featuring Escape, Devotion, and Constellation mechanics. (20 words) Key mechanics include: - *Devotion* Returned from Theros, emphasizing mana symbol devotion. - *Constellation* Returned from Journey into Nyx, triggering on enchantments entering graveyards. - *Escape* New mechanic enabling spells to be cast from the graveyard. Theros Beyond Death continues the Theros storyline with Elspeth Tirel in the Underworld after her death by Heliod, God of the Sun; she plots escape aided by Erebos, God of the Dead, who weakens the life-death barrier to spite Heliod, allowing other Underworld denizens to attempt escapes. As Titans' chains loosen, Klothys, God of Fate, returns from exile angered by the chaos, while Ashiok pursues dark designs. The set revives Devotion and Constellation mechanics, introduces Escape for graveyard casting, comprises 254 cards (5 basic lands, 101 commons, 80 uncommons, 53 rares, 15 mythic rares), and is available in draft boosters, collector boosters, theme boosters, bundles, plus Elspeth and Ashiok planeswalker preconstructed decks. ---
