TQ: What are your thoughts on planeswalkers in EDH? Do you think any problems would emerge if they were allowed to be your commander in a manner similar to Brawl or Oathbreaker?

Planeswalkers should be de facto allowed as commanders. There are some that are very problematic, but it'd be better to make a banlist than lazily autoban them all.

Bringing this forward:

Have we seen any non-WotC Planeswalkers (not just reskins?)

If they do Q as anything other than a Planeswalker, I'll be proper pissed.

Still if you're going to do Marvel, you have to be careful insofar as you care about accurate whole-picture design translation, because there's a pretty clear hierarchy of who should be a Planeswalker without any unrelated power-ups and its not just based on powers but rather how explicitly and frequently their power allows them to hop and how well known that facet of their powers is.

Making Thanos a Planeswalker but Dr. Strange a legendary hero would be silly.

On that note, it's pretty clear from the lack of Stephen Strange that we'll be getting a Midnight Suns release too.

Yeah, he'd make sense as a phasing legendary with a win con printed on the card, I suppose.

It would also be acceptable if he responded to zone changes by self-exiling and gaining suspend 1 instead. Maybe give him "Aye Mon Capitane - Q cannot be your commander" and preclude him from being a commander himself.

But they would never have the SOVL for such a thing

No, and it's unlikely we will for quite some time. Right now UB sets are designed differently from UW sets, where a major priority is ensuring a degree of simplicity for new incoming players. Planeswalkers tend to have an intrinsic complexity to them even if it's not much higher than usual. This is compounded by how the AFC and CLB walkers were received extremely poorly, and the last time walkers as a whole got a spotlight (WAR) the set was also considered exceptionally bad despite selling well.
Basically, right now every card in a set is aimed at one of three formats:
>Draft
>Standard
>EDH
UB sets have a very large EDH bias in this triangle because they know the majority of people buying these sets just want to make a deck themed around their favorite glup shitto. However the threshold to make a planeswalker EDH playable is very high especially relative to 1v1 formats. The walkers we do get for EDH are generally extremely weak because WAR and Oathbreaker demonstrated that they promote a playstyle that most players don't particularly enjoy, which is why the walkers aimed at EDH generally suck on purpose and are just there to appease the "I want planeswalkers" crowd (ironically meaning WotC treats their own fans wanting planeswalkers the same way they treat UB players wanting a glup shitto commander).
A bit of a rambling explanation but the short is it's extremely unlikely.

Honestly hoping Star Trek brings back the planeswalk cards like Doctor Who did. Then you can explore all the various worlds while also giving cards abilities to influence the exploration of the galaxy with planeswalk effects that will not impact balance outside of that format.

Just realized I posted in the wrong thread, woops
Me and a friend are doing a thing where we each opened a pack and we make a deck using one of the legendaries in that pack.
Only rule is we can't buy any cards specifically for it. Has to all be made of stuff we own.
I can't decide between Beast and Winter Soldier.

>What are your thoughts on planeswalkers in EDH? Do you think any problems would emerge if they were allowed to be your commander in a manner similar to Brawl or Oathbreaker?

Should not be made commanders. We already have enough I already dislike the rule changes that have been made to commander over the years. It was peak right after WotC released those commander precons in 2011 and people started to show up early at game stores and play some EDH before standard started.

Also, why didn't any of you faggots tell me about this card? Absolutely smoked me for 30 damage, when I had an almost unstoppable board and was going to win. Is this the best direct burn spell in the format? I'm guessing it might be above a certain mana value. I've been using Banefire or Aurelia's Fury.

Noob here. Don’t know what EDH stands for, but the other thread doesn’t like UB so I’ll ask here:
How do transforming commanders work in terms of what’s allowed in a commander deck? Am I allowed to have red, green, and blue? I’ll pretty much have to pay the usual cost to transform him every time I bring him out right? I don’t get to just bring him out transformed without paying that cost I mean.

-an MDFC (Modal Double-Faced Card) as your commander has the color identity of both it's faces as well as the usual identity of colored pips in it's rules text. in this example, Bruce has Red + Green + Blue, so you can use those 3 colors in your deck.
-MDFC cards can be played/cast on either side, provided you can pay the mana cost of the side you are casting.
-the ability to transform using the ability is entirely optional, although in this case it's often recommended to play Bruce before transforming into Hulk if your commander tax gets to high.
>>
>>98242957
this hulk has red, green, and blue color identity (temur) and you can just cast the backside immediately without having to go through the frontside first
>>
>>98242957
>Don’t know what EDH stands for
Elder Dragon Highlander, basically you the origin of the format is people running theme decks of old shitty cards called Elder Dragons. The highlander part is because of the single card rule
>>98242957
>Am I allowed to have red, green, and blue?
Yes if a commander has two faces then you take into account the mana pips present on both playable sides of the card. In this case, yes Bruce Banner/Hulk is a red blue green (RGU/Temur) commander
>I’ll pretty much have to pay the usual cost to transform him every time I bring him out right?
If you want to transform Bruce banner into the hulk yes you need to pay the mana cost on the bottom. However, double faced cards with mana values on the back, like the hulk, CAN be cast on that side. If you see a double faced card without a mana value on the back side there's usually some specially condition you need to fulfill to transform it.

Yeah you couldn't even attack him unless you are doing lethal. He would constantly ping him for damage so it gets bigger and then does spot removal on targets.
