# Kytheon, Hero of Akros // Gideon, Battle-Forged Kytheon represents a significant moment in Magic's design: the first double-faced planeswalker card. Collectors value it as a mechanical landmark that changed how the game could represent character transformation. The front side plays as a modest creature, but flipping to Gideon creates a powerful planeswalker, making it functionally unique for its time. The card's appeal extends beyond novelty. Gideon became a format staple, driving demand among competitive players and casual collectors alike. Both foil and nonfoil versions see collector interest, though foils command premiums due to their scarcity and the card's popularity. Its mythic rarity and mechanical innovation cement its place in Magic history.
