My planeswalker ultimates always end up being too long.

Realized there was nothing red about this guy.

2012-06-20 21:17:20: Link moved the card Caradoc, Life Celebrant from Multiverse Design Challenge into Link's Unplaced Cards

Oops. Apparently I was not in the set I thought I was. :)

Changed name slightly. Still not quite happy with it.

Hmm, I think the [-1] is too good... it's basically 3 mana for the better half of Mirari's Wake.

Is this any better? I changed to in an attempt to have it be one land of each basic land type in slightly shorter words. Does it have to say target before each land type?

Made more splashable, increased mana cost & starting loyalty.

I put the second ability back to what it was when Cymerdown commented. It doesn't seem that much worse to me than Koth of the Hammer, although perhaps it should be a -2 ability like his.

2012-06-22 00:55:57: Link edited Caradoc, Life Celebrant:

Changed all loyalty payments.

Well, it's because a) it's a 3-mana PW, b) it's just -1 instead of -2, c) starting loyalty of 4 instead of 3, d) it's not just 1 color of mana (it's a kind of mana fixing)

I made my last comment knowing that he now cost more than Koth.

In fact, the [+2] and the [-2] are the two halves of Mirari's Wake. Is that deliberate?

(They're somewhat better in each case. The first is far more terrifying with things like Marisi's Twinclaws, and the second is better with Karoos, Fertile Grounds, etc.)

No, it wasn't deliberate. I was attempting to make a Planeswalker that complimented Alden, Gleeful Retributor. To be honest, I had completely forgotten the existence of Mirari's Wake when I made Caradoc.
His first ability is different from Mirari's Wake not only because it counts colors, but because it also boosts other players' creatures.
