Why 8? Isn't 10 the magic number for vampires? That said, this seems too similar to Ob Nixilis, Vengeant Demon.
Also, pretty sure you can't have two planeswalkers with the same color(s) for constructed balance reasons.
I'm doing a ton of walkers here for flavor reasons. Also walkers aren't the end-all-be-all for constructed power, a lot of them are pretty awful in constructed (TIBALT. TIBALT. TIBALT. TIBALT)
8 walkers, to be exact.
There's allowed to be 5 max in Standard at one time. With 8 in a single set, they stop being special. And Tibalt is straight up a mistake, so not a good example.
That said, if you want 8 walkers, better make sure there's no mechanical overlap between any of them. Good luck with that.
5 max per block, you mean. Not 5 max in standard. Also, Tibalt isn't the only awful walker, just the most popular example of a bad walker. Jace, the Living Guildpact, Nissa Revane, Sarkhan the Mad, and Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker all see very little play in any format besides EDH.
