Duel Decks: Elspeth vs. Kiora is the 15th set in the Duel Decks series. It was released on February 27, 2015.[2]
Description[ | ]
Six cards receive new artwork: Elspeth, Sun's Champion, Kiora, the Crashing Wave [3] Mother of Runes, Temple of the False God, Explore and Decree of Justice. The art for Icatian Javelineers first appeared on a Gateway card and the art for Accumulated Knowledge was first used for Duels of the Planeswalkers.[4]
The Duel Deck includes a Magic "learn to play" guide, a strategy insert, and two copies of a 1/1 soldier token and a 9/9 Kraken token each.
Background[ | ]
The knight Planeswalker Elspeth Tirel sees herself as the protector of the Multiverse. She has pledged her sword and shield to all who suffer, and she summons forth impressive armies to assist her. The merfolk Planeswalker Kiora calls upon the creatures of the deepest oceans to fight at her side. She is the master of the world beneath the waves, her true power only now beginning to surface. How will these Planeswalkers measure up when they meet in battle?
