For formatting purposes, the "cast ~ only if..." part should be placed above/ahead of the "Add WWW to your mana pool." See: Even the Odds and Feast of Blood.
Color pie be damned. The flavor is nice.
It's One Dozen Eyes as an instant. Or Elephant Ambush updated for modern creature strengths. Actually, I think a 4/4 flash for is stronger than green would typically get below rare. At common that'll be a monster. Albeit one that everyone can see coming if the opponent passes with 4 mana up... but still, everyone walked into Elephant Ambush back in the day because it was all you could do.
So yeah, I think at least the 4/4 side of this needs to either shrink or be more expensive. (Or become a sorcery - that'd work too.)
Ok Fixed. Thank you for the wording fix. And I spent like 20 minutes going back and forth with the abilities on either side trying to get them lined up and balanced.
Hmm. There are a couple of problems here: 1) "three or more creatures an opponent controls die in combat" isn't actually a well-defined concept. What happens if two die one combat and two the next? What happens if one dies in first strike damage, one to a Doom Blade, and one in regular combat damage? 2) When this transforms, it won't gain the loyalty counters, so it'll go to a graveyard as an SBA for having no loyalty.
I suggest you fix both of these at the same time, by saying:
Whenever a creature an opponent controls dies in combat, put a loyalty counter on ~. Then if ~ has four or more loyalty counters, transform it.
I do love the way the planeswalker abilities mirror his creature abilities.
