Honestly, I think the flavor text is more important, but maybe we could throw hexproof on the front as an addition that goes a long, long way to incentivize reflipping? (Possibly too long, we might even need to go +1/+1 and flying and hexproof.)

Sure. Sounds good.
Beginning of each combat, so he can use haste on the turn he enters. Come to think of it, with haste-gaining present, can we make him a 5-mana 4/4?
We could remove the flavor text, I suppose.
I kind of tried to make her as blue as possible, without actually making her blue. Her White surgebinding ability represents her lightweaving, but since I couldn't call it an illusion, I decided to call it an avatar, i.e. it's an avatar of Shallan.
Thoughts on balancing?
That would work.
How then should we do it? There's not a lot of room left on the card.
Okay. Should it be at the beginning of the controllers turn, or each turn?
Sure, that sounds fun. Maybe we could make that ability three mana to balance it (

), but then replace first strike with "At the beginning of combat on your turn, ~ gains your choice of vigilance, first strike, or haste until end of turn" to represent his use of different Stances and boost his power level a bit.
Even p/t boosts are usually in white or green, but red gets them for specifically red things (dragons, goblins, etc.) so maybe we could change +1/+0 and haste to +1/+1 for attacking creatures you control, keeping it in red's color pie?
No, it doesn't, but you can word it like Huntmaster of the Fells to get that to work.
Thoughts on power level? Too hard/limited in use?
Does flipping count as entering the battlefield?
Anyway, I think players would flip back a reasonable number of times. Not only do they scry, but they also gain evasion and an extra point of toughness. That's more useful than first strike against a combat focused deck.
That might work. Samuel, thoughts?
Well, the haste part is supposed to represent Kaladin's charisma, his ability to move others to action. +0/+1 might be a little off color, but +1/+1 might work. We'll have to ask Samuel if that is too overpowered.
Should the front side have an ETB effect? That way, people will be more incentivized to flip it back.
Added flavor text
I don't know if it is flavorful for Kaladin to give the other creatures haste, as, even with him leading, they were fairly apprehensive about getting to the chasmfiend. He could also give other creatures additional toughness, as they stopped dying when he became bridgeleader. Additionally, he was a healer, which would also be represented through the increased toughness.
The equipment could be automatically equipped to Adolin, to enhance the idea that he is now wielding them. It would also slightly increase his power level.
