Magic: The Gathering Card of the Day – Colossus of Akros
(Source: Wizards.com)
Colossus of Akros – Theros. As a creature without flying, our big Golem here is susceptible to being hit with an Earthquake. No matter how much mana gets pumped into that X spell, though, the Colossus’s indestructible will keep it around. Why mention such a basic rules interaction? Well, surviving that huge Earthquake spell is a lot better than what happened to the Colossus’s real-world inspiration, which was brought low by an earthquake in 226 BCE (fifty-six years after its completion).
