I like the burn spells in Theros that also scry: Rage of Purphoros, Spark Jolt and of course Magma Jet. I happened to be thinking about how Greco-Roman traditional haruspices with their unpredictability and their incense pyres and burned offerings were rather red in MtG terms, and I started wondering about a pyro-augur planeswalker. This was the result.
It's a bit unfortunate how similar this is to Chandra, Pyromaster. MaRo has stated that her middle ability is a kind of temporary draw that Wizards are trying out for red, but people do call it "Chandra draw". I didn't want to just avoid it though, because it goes with scry so very well. It's like a red Preordain.
The ultimate is not as instant-win as some planeswalker ultimates. But it's certainly a pretty powerful effect to have, and it looks quite fun to me as well.
