Hmm, interesting. Clone price, but only a clone for a turn if used that way. Copying planeswalkers is interesting - but won't the legend rule kick in? Assuming not then it's a slow way to be a second terrifying thing. The ultimate is also terrifying, and kinda quick to kick in.

This goes right on to my pile of "why all planeswalkers must die" and is thankfully relatively easy to kill. So pretty much perfect, I guess.

by Alex:

3 turns of delay isn't that quick for an ultimate; many PWs' ultimates fire off after only 2 turns' delay, like Garruk Wildspeaker or Sarkhan Vol.

But yes, it would get legend-ruled as a planeswalker (that is, if it's your own planeswalker it's copying). It'd need to say "except he's still a Rei" or "his type is still Rei", like Imnamon, Copycat did.

by cmeister2:

Yeah, unfortunately with that text it gets a bit ant-like. At least this way he can either clone himself or an opponents walker.
