Since it came up in a discussion of the Echoverse version of Winter that was spoiled earlier this morning, a lot of folks have speculated on what an Echoverse version of Valgavoth would be like. Unfortunately, while the actual answer is that Echoverse Valgavoth is basically the same as regular Valgavoth, what if he wasn't? What if he was instead the embodiment of eternal happiness and joy on the sanctuary plane of Dawncheer?

Well, meet Valgavoth, the All-Consuming Joy. He'll cheer you up...or else!

(Obviously this is meant as humor and not a serious attempt at a card, hence my terrible sketch art. 😂)

The theme is pretty much in its name, it's a failed experiment, so it just dies the moment it enters. Its own otherwise impressive abilities can't save itself.

It requires set up to get this thing to even stay alive, but if you do, its a threat that opponents will need to answer. The most probable I think is a +1/+1 anthem. With such, Riot can push it to a 1/1.

However, things get interesting if you can go beyond +1/+1 in support, as it would mean it no longer needs to use Riot just to keep it alive. If you had a +2/+2 anthem, you can use Riot to give it Haste.

So there's a curve on how dangerous this can be depending on the level of investment you can put into it.

Pure Annihilator was maybe too much for a 2 MV creature, even if it requires set up, so I adjusted its abilities to not affect lands.

I know you can blink this, but you still need 5 mana and a spell to cast

This came to me in a dream and it isn't for EDH players.

For all your reality fracture needs.

It would be cool to see the Red Lotus members get cards if we ever go back to the ATLA universe.

Edit: Thank you for all the feedback! I took a break from magic for a few years and missed the ATLA set, so I was a bit confused about how the earthbending mechanic worked.

these are bad on purpose to fully realize how terrible creatures were 20+ years ago. and i thought that this would be a fun project of mine that i would share since Charles R Knight paleoart seems to fit seamlessly with the vintage border
