==Overview==
[[Gideon of the Trials]] is a white human Planeswalker, introduced in May 2017 along with the [[Amonkhet]] card set.
He has higher than average health, high mana gains with a slightly unbalanced spread, and very low deck limits. His mana gains in White are quite good, and good in Green, with no minuses to the other colors.
His abilities have an {{Ability|Exile}} theme, including {{Ability|buff|buffing}} a creature by {{Ability|Exile|Exiling}} another creature, and returning {{Ability|Exile|Exiled}} creatures to play. He can also create a defensive {{Ability|Token}} creature.Exile synergizes well with the {{Ability|Cycling}} cards that were [[Standard]] at the time of his release,
Gideon of the Trials, sometimes called G3, is the third of four a number of playable [[Planeswalkers]] in MtGPQ which embody Gideon Jura at different points in his life. [[Gideon of the Trials]] and [[Nissa, Steward of the Elements]] are [[Planeswalkers]] released at the same time as the set. Both had only [[Origins]] cards in their Starting Decks.

==Story==
<blockquote>''Gideon too discovered that [[Nicol_Bolas,_God-Pharaoh|Nicol Bolas]]’s influence ran deep, affecting even the gods. Nicol Bolas had established himself as God-Pharaoh, and the people and gods of [[Amonkhet]] believed he would return to welcome them to the afterlife when the magical Second Sun came to rest between the horns of his statue. Whatever the dragon Planeswalker’s plan was for the people, the Gatewatch were sure it wasn’t good. They prepared to face Nicol Bolas when he arrives, ready to do whatever it takes to stop him, even if that means standing against the world’s gods.''</blockquote>
