    ...mfw this skillset is holy hell what the f*** barbecue.

    No, seriously. That ultimate. What. WHAT. If she lasts long enough to drop it, all you need to do is equip one with Whispersilk Cloak and you win.

    WHAT THE HELL.

    They're really pushing Golgari.

    And I love it.

    Best planeswalker ever besides Jace, honestly. Better than Elspeth.

    Yeah, Dreadbore's kind of a Rakdos staple now, considering all its good targets. I'm feeling the same vibe from 1-2 copies of Slaughter Games.

    Honestly, after comparing this to other Planeswalkers (even those that see nearly no play in T2) she actually seems very underwhelming.

    She generates very little advantage, with her -3 being the only immediate impact she can make, compare this to Tamiyo, either of the Garruks, either of the Lilianas, either of the Jaces, Karn. Should also be noted that she can only use it once before having to use the +1 and essentially waste one of her turns.

    The tokens are all 1/1 with no form of evasion, sure it's in green and Green has Rancor but that's piling a lot of things up and up hoping it all goes well, and that's provided she hasn't been dispatched by an O-Ring or Dreadbore. Heck, we all know that we shouldn't really focus on an ultimate for a walker to be good.

    Her colours are pretty unhelpful, Green is almost entirely an aggro-based colour, Black is admittedly pretty helpful though, but unless it gets something new Victim of Night and Murder are the only instant-speed spot removal cards it'll have.

    I can see this as a side-board card in Golgari/Jund for the control matchup, though.

    Hello, Miss Maelstrom Pulse.

    The only reason anyone will use her is to use 2 or 3 Maelstrom Pulses and letting her die.

    The colours confuse me... But I think its quite good.

    The +1 is... Ok. Whilst the -3 is good, but as has been stated, it only gets one of that before recharging.

    The ultimate is hilarious, and winning with it is extrememly funny. But... I don't see this being hugely impacting compared to many other Planeswakers. And by that I mean Tamiyo.

    Will see play in standard. She can protect herself really well and Maelstrom Pulse as a -3 is no joke. Also, you guys are forgetting that Scavenge exists.
