See Challenge # 145 using Wall
I thought about Wall for a while, but a planeswalker seemed the type of card that was most likely to make that as a token rather than a creature.
Niiice. Synergistic, flavourful, tells a story, suggests a deck while standing on her own as well. Good job.
Tiny niggles in that +2 seems quite a lot of loyalty gain on a 4-mana walker, and that the final two abilities are both removal, but overall this is very nice.
I like it! With that +2 she'd be very hard to deal with, though. And I do wish her second two abilities were a bit more diverse, as Alex pointed out.
Yeah, agree with both comments. I'll try to replace one of the bottom two abilities, and maybe just reduce the cost in the top one when I see how strong it looks. Maybe a - that puts a +1/+1 counter on a creature with defender and says it can attack as though it didn't have defender? A win condition would be useful for a defender deck.
