{{Infobox pwPW|{{PAGENAME}}}}|name=[[Kiora, Master of the Depths]] is a blue and green merfolk Planeswalker, introduced in June 2016 along with the [[Oath of the Gatewatch]] card set. She has lower than average health and average deck limits, with a focus on Spells. Like her fellow OGW [[Planeswalkers]] she has a combined mana bonus below normal; dual color PWs usually have eight total, but she has six. Like other [[OGW]] and [[Battle for Zendikar]] Planeswalkers, she has only [[Origins]] cards in her [[#Starting Deck|image=kioraStarting Deck]].png Her abilities are a mix of powerful effects, including draining the enemy's mana while giving mana to her own cards, {{Ability|fetch|fetching}} a creature card from her library with a large mana boost, and creating a huge octopus {{Ability|aliases=-Token}} with {{Ability|Reach}} and {{Ability|Trample}}. Prior to January 2017, Kiora cost {{Crystals|color=UG950}}to acquire, which remains the highest historical cost in Crystals of any Planeswalker. These days, she is usually on sale at a reduced cost, below the 650 Crystals of other dual color walkers.
