Hammer of Purphoros

Artifact Enchantment Volume

There is an Artifact Enchantment token already! The Hammer of Purphoros produces golems that are artifact enchantments.

I think they were asking for something like Treasure or Food that shows up in volume.

Mechanics of Kaldheim Gods

With the Kaldheim Gods having their artifacts as their back face, would you redesign the Theroes Gods to have this same idea. ex. Purphoros, God of the Force and Hammer of Purphoros

I think it’s important to give each world’s Gods their own mechanical feel.

Legendary Text Placement

Have you considered putting "legendary" in the text box instead of the type line? Seems like that would save a lot of space on cards with a lot going on in the type line like Hammer of Purphoros and the various Theros gods.

The rules text box is far more valuable space on legendary creatures than the type line.

Artifact Creature Tokens

We also had Enchantment Artifact Creatures with the tokens made by one of the Enchantment Artifacts (Hammer of Purphoros).

Good point.

Archetype Questions

Okay so 2 questions dealing with the archetypes (not sure if this is the blog to ask, but I figured you could help). First one is why did red get trample and green got hexproof? The only thing I can think of is green bant and red jund or Naya, but I wasn't sure. Second one was dual archetypes. If somebody already had courage out, then the other player played it, would both lose first strike, or would the second be obsolete?

Hammer of Purphoros grants haste to all your creatures so we were looking for something different. Red is secondary at trample. Since red got trample, we gave green a different keyword it has.

Red's Trample Trait

What's up with the red archetype giving trample? I know red does trample, but that ability doesn't seem like an "archetypal" ability like haste, firebreathing, or even first strike does.

Hammer of Purphoros already granted haste to all your creatures so we went with a different creature keyword in red.

Naming Limitations

Why don't the god weapon cards use the weapon's name given in the Planeswalkers guide (e.g. Akmon, Hammer of Purphoros)?

It didn’t fit on the name line (and remember we need to be able to translate into other languages some of which make things slightly longer). We decided to go with the descriptor rather than the proper name because we wanted people to get what they were and who they belonged to without having to have read an article.
