No reason for this to be any lower than 4/5; it's an Honor of the Pure in any color for just one mana more.

A slightly more susceptible Anthem is still an Anthem.

It seemed weird for colors other than white to get anthems like this. But then I remembered Gauntlet of Power and Caged Sun.

Flavor bomb, and gorgeous artwork. The flavor text pretty much concluded Theros block and its series of hero events.

This is the victory screen Elspeth saw after she defeated Xenagos. YOU WIN!

Colorless anthem that can go in any deck ( ok, maybe not Mirrans. ) I'll take four, please!

@continue: And colorless mana to boot!

@Continue: It's an Honor of the Pure that you can only have one of on your side of the battlefield at any one time. That's the real killer here.

It appears that in Magic, one definition of "Triumph" seems to be:
     "A +1/+1 boost for a certain group of creatures."

There's Shared Triumph, Triumph of the Hordes and now Hall of Triumph.


Seeing how this is Legendary and generally easier to destroy than Honor of the Pure,
I think they could have given this a cost of 2 instead.
It would have been interesting to see other colors make use of the power boost.

"Just" one mana more? This one mana makes a huge the difference.
It's 50% increase in cost, and means you get either the creatures or the benefit later than otherwise.
For 3, it rather lacks the speed to be competitive, which makes this more of something for the kitchen table and Commander. Since it is Legendary, yet still only affects creatures of a certain color, this is somewhat mediocre.

Flavor bomb, as Cyberium said, but I only rate cards by power. I gave this a 3/5.

An interesting card: Good in limited play and some uses in constructed decks with options.
A 4 stars card.

Colorless Crusade that only affects you, but with no devotion.

Being in and/or of Nyx, shouldn't this be a Legendary Enchantment Artifact? They said the only reason Godsend didn't have that type line is because it wouldn't fit. Is it because this card is colorless? I don't much care but it feels off to me in such an enchantment heavy block.
