I see a Facebook post this morning (21st Dec) ...

"Chandra, Torch of Defiance is available now is (sic) a special holiday sale (70% off) that includes 2 Kaladesh Big Boxes and more!"

I can't see it in the game, can anyone else ?

    I saw the same thing. In my fb feed yesterday and this morning. I can only assume it will be part of the coming update and someone jumped the gun in marketing.

    In the mtggoldfish preview article, they stated Chandra would be available on the 28th.

    They just had the wrong week when scheduling the FB post.
  • Where do you see that? I don't see it on the Facebook page. Did they take it down already?

    I think the real question is: how many abilities will she have?
  • No that's not the real question; you missed the point of this thread entirely. Just saying....

    The point is SNAFU at D3.

    Apologies for the confusion. Apparently that ad was run a tad earlier than it was supposed to.

    We will be posting an article tomorrow on the Magic: Puzzle Quest FAQ page, which contains all the information you'll want to know about Chandra! icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I beg to differ!

    I'd like her level by level breakdown of mana gains, health, creature/spell/support loadout, and abilities please, so that I can update it on my site.

    Just plug it in here and I'll take care of the rest: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... 1961382116

    icon_eek.gif Ok. Maybe just a lot of information.

    The article does have a screenshot showing mana bonuses, health, and abilities when she's level 60 though. I'll see what I can do about gathering her card loadout, and stats broken down by level increments.

    My joke above is tongue-in-cheek, but if you manage to get that information holy moly I will super happy if so. icon_e_smile.gif

    I won't get my hopes up - I have received a lot of reminders about not getting information before it's released in-game (probably much more relevant because they were developing Kaladesh, but yeah).

    oh sorry, I still had the link as beta.mtgpq.info I didn't see that you took beta out of the url. My mistake!
  • Can someone post a link to this supposed FAQ? I can't find it.
  • Lol. Just noticed the "tomorrow" part. Still if someone wants to put it here when it's up for quick access. Thanks

    What article shows her abilities and Mana bonuses. Link it? I don't really care about her level to level at this point. I just want to see what she does.

    Since Brigby didn't feel like posting links, here they are:

    Not very impressive, she really wants to be a red Ob Nixilis but she's not even close. I'll stick with Chandra 1 if I want to use a Chandra planeswalker. The bundle might still be worth it if it doesn't cost a fortune considering she comes with 2 Kaladesh Big Boxes and 250 crystals.

    She is energy-dependent, yet they want you to buy Harnessed Lightning, which removes all energy from the board. Huh.

    Her mana gain is fantastic. Jace 2.0 and Liliana 2.0 are a lot of fun with their +5/+4 and this will be too.

    I can also see a really fun direct damage burn deck here that would become insane with Harness the Storm. From what I can see "Chandra, Burn ALL the Things!" is a day one purchase.
