[[Koth of the Hammer]] is a red human Planeswalker, introduced in April 2016 along with the [[Battle for Zendikar]] card set.
He has average health and deck limits which heavily favor Creatures, at the expense of Supports. Like all of the BFZ and Origins Planeswalkers, he has a low mana bonus total; at +7, it is as low as a tri-color PW. His red bonus is tied for highest in the game, though, with [[Jaya, Fiery Negotiator]], and his abilities are quite powerful. As with most PWs released early on, he gains abilities at higher levels. For example, his second ability at level 12 instead of 10, and his third at 18 instead of 16.
His abilities revolve around red gems, including destroying non-red gems on the board, and creating a support {{Ability|Token}} which permanently {{Ability|buff|buffs}} his creatures when red gems are matched. He can also temporarily give all his creatures {{Ability|Berserker}} and {{Ability|Trample}}, as well as a large buff to their Power.
