Omnath Origin Trivia

New 15 Sep 2018 Asked by piggles-destroyer-of-worlds-dea 29 Comments

Hi MaRo! Today is my birthday and I'd really like some trivia on my first and favourite (don't tell the others) commander: Omnath, locus of mana!


I had first messed around with mechanically caring about what mana was in your mana pool in Mirrodin with Glissa Sunseeker. Ken Nagle, inspired by that, made Omnath in Worldwake. Happy Birthday!

Doubling Cube Origins

New 31 May 2015 Asked by nivyii 22 Comments

I wanna redeem my nameday trivia question please: Something about Omnath, locus of mana or Doubling cube?


I designed Doubling Cube because I love doubling things and we hadn’t doubled mana yet. Fifth Dawn was part of an artifact block so I made it an artifact called Doubling Cube. (A doubling cube is a game device used in games like backgammon.) I was very happy when the name made it to print. Happy Birthday!

Arcbound and Omnath Trivia

New 16 Sep 2014 Asked by yupimmadbro 30 Comments

It was my birthday yesterday so I was wondering if you had any trivia on Arcbounds (besides Ravager wrecking face) or my favorite commander, Omnath, Locus of Mana?


The modular mechanic (aka the arcbounds) was me revisiting the chimeras from Visions.  Happy Belated Birthday!

Omnath Design Trivia

New 17 Dec 2013 Asked by vumbo 12 Comments

Hi, MaRo! It's my girlfriends birthday today and her EDH commander is Omnath, Locus of Mana. Any trivia about him/her/it


Omnath was designed by Ken Nagle. I believe he was riffing off the card Glissa Sunseeker that I made for Mirrodin. Both use the number of mana in your pool to set a variable. Happy birthday to your girlfriend! (Man, these birthday wishes are drifting.)
