Revision as of 16:25, 29 April 2007
Template:Expansion Champions of Kamigawa is the thirty-fourth Magic expansion, released in 2004 as the first set in the Kamigawa Block.
Champions of Kamigawa is set in Kamigawa, a plane in the multiverse of Magic based on Japanese mythology. A war between the physical world and the spirits that are the essence of everything in the physical world, tears the veil between those two worlds apart. To represent this, the cards are mostly divided into two groups, the physical beings with their regular magic, and the kami with their "arcane" magic.
Champions of Kamigawa introduced the keywords Bushido, Soulshift, and Splice, as well as the first sorcery and instant subtype, Arcane, and finally flip cards. Of these mechanics, the Arcane subtype, Splice onto Arcane, and Soulshift represented spirit-world magic, while the flip cards contributed to another major mechanic throughout the block: legendary creatures (and permanents). It featured, for example, the first five legendary enchantments, the Hondens.
In the tournament scene, Champions of Kamigawa contributed with a large number of finishers, like Kokusho, the Evening Star, Keiga, the Tide Star, Yosei, the Morning Star and Meloku the Clouded Mirror. It also provided excellent green mana fixing, like Sakura-Tribe Elder and Kodama's Reach, and an arsenal of cards that fueled multiple colored control decks, like, for example, Gifts Ungiven and Sensei's Divining Top. A notable sideboard card was also found in Cranial Extraction.
