{{Infobox set|HOU}}
[[Hour of Devastation]] is the ninth ''Magic: The Gathering - Puzzle Quest'' set, released in July 2017 in version 2.2 of the game. The set abbreviation is HOU, and the set icon ([[File:HOU_Symbol.png|x16px|HOU]]) resembles [[Nicol_Bolas,_God-Pharaoh|Nicol Bolas]]'s horns.
[[Return of the God-Pharaoh]] is a Legacy PvE event, similarly released.
[[Elspeth, Sun's Champion]], [[Liliana, Death's Majesty]], [[Nicol Bolas, God-Pharaoh]] and [[Samut, the Tested]] are [[Planeswalkers]] released at the same time as the set. All of the other [[Planeswalkers]] have the mana bonus total that was to become the standard in later sets, but Samut has seven in total; one less than most dual color Planeswalkers.
==Cards==
The Hour of Devastation set consists of 190 cards across all rarities, plus full art variants of 3 of those cards.
HOU was the first Hibernum even-numbered release that was not added to the pool of cards of the previous release. HOU stands alone; its cards have their own packs, they are offered as rewards in its own events, and it has Commons. Previous second sets had none of these things. [[Eldritch Moon]] cards were added to [[Shadows over Innistrad]] packs, [[Oath of the Gatewatch]] to [[Battle for Zendikar]], and [[Aether Revolt]] was rolled into [[Kaladesh]].
As sometimes happens, an ability introduced in a previous set (in this case {{Ability|Cycling}} from the set immediately prior, [[AKH]]) was added; 21
HOU cards have Cycling.
