Ajani, Mentor of Heroes

Enchantment Block Request

When are we going to get an enchantment block? Don't say we had one as Urza's Saga aka the artifacts cycle was full of broken artifacts and even you stressed that Theros was a top down Greek block with an enchantment sub theme. None of the Legends in Theros had anything to do with enchantments and we've never had a Planeswalker that cares about them (though I'll give you that Ajani, Mentor of Heroes did give a nod to Aura's). We've had 4 artifact blocks now and still no enchantment block!

What you’re asking for is an “enchantment matters” block. It’s much harder to pull off than an “artifacts matter” block, but I am confident we’ll get to it eventually.

Ajani's Green Aspect

Why is Ajani, Mentor of Heroes Green? It is because he is on a quest to restore the balance of Theros? Or is it Green solely due to his mechanics?

He’s Green because his character at that moment has a bunch of Green (his goal was one of seeking restoring of the natural order) and the mechanics reflect that. Note that Ajani is centered in White but has elements of Red and Green.

Three-Digit Numbers in Cards

"I think Ajani, Mentor of Heroes is only the third time a 3-digit number ever appeared in Magic outside of flavor text and silver border. Am I wrong? And also, trivia question for your readers: find the other two." Battle of Wits and Helix Pinnacle : )

That’s the two I had. Did anyone come up with another one?
