So I'm back! (Not that probably any of you know me)
What's new?. Thought I'd check in and say hi. I noticed all the new Planeswalkers mana gains are nuts, do they even try to balance them out anymore?, and how are Koth and Tezzeret; still ridiculously over powered and underpowered respectively? And are they not doing story modes anymore? Also what is the cost in crystals of the Planeswalkers now? Final question: Which Planeswalkers is the best without being ridiculously overpriced?

    Welcome back (even though I don't know you)! icon_e_smile.gif

    Mono color PW cost 295 crystals, and Dual-color Pw cost 650 crystals.

    Koth is, in my opinion, still the best option for a red node in an event and probably also for quick battle. Maybe Saheeli will change that?

    Tzerret is still the same. I don't find him terribly underpowered. He has his use in story mode for me. But yeah, nothing for events or QB.

    Regards!

    Nahiri is doing a lot of dominating in quick battle too, since she wasn't yet mentioned. Nissa 2 is pretty good too.

    I've done pretty well with Sorin in QB and Jace 2 is pretty fun to play with outside of QB. I don't think there current pw's are overpowered but the originals could use a power up.
    Sorry but for now there is nothing new in story mode.
    BTW, I don't know you but I've slaughtered a couple of your decks in QB.
    Welcome back.

    General idea is to combat any overpowered mechanics we are introducing new features which will put previous overpowered mechanics into shadows MORE MANA MORE POWER MOAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR


    also Fate is Rarely Fair is the new Event which is just the best

    I think that you're in the minority opinion on this one. icon_e_smile.gif

    the new colorless mythic supports like Dynavolt Tower and Gonti's Heart make Tezz pretty good now. I can run a critterless deck with him. ok...One critter Startled Awake, for the mana boost and in case i get to use Tezz Ult.

    I've never found tezz weak. Just too slow and boring.

    ...or, indeed, any planeswalker.

    Creatures will be history at top tier soon...

    It's already happening and not just at top tier.
    Went up against a near creatureless Dovin Baan deck recently in gold tier. Most aggravating deck I've played so far. After 45 minutes of neither me or the AI being able to deal any damage I just quit.
