When Karn was up for sale the devs said that he would be exclusive for longer than usual. Best guess is he will be the last of the 3 to make it to the vault.0 -
Yes. But the time is much higher than the estimated. Something may be wrong.
Note: I wish more Teferi than karn

'After the May 23rd date, Karn, Scion of Urza won't be available in the Vault for Mana Crystals just yet until a later, not-yet-announced date. This date will be longer than previously released Planeswalkers, which tended to be 3 weeks after conclusion of bundle sale.'
The above was written in the release notes for 2.6. This is the only official info about the release of Karn sofar.1 -
This is actually sheds a lot of light on the situation, and a bit of relief for me.Basically it seems that Karn is Octagon's special planewalker-baby and won't be available to us for a while (I wouldn't be surprised if they re-released him for cash-purchase only), but the other planeswalkers will continue to be released a month-ish after they are no longer available for cash.I'm really glad about this honestly because I was afraid they were going to this exclusive-Karn strategy for all of the new planeswalkers and this would become more of a pay-to-play game. I can do without Karn, but I don't want to have to pay cash for every new planeswalker or have to wait half a year or more before I can get crystal purchase access.1

I wouldn't mind if they had one exclusive PW/set with an extended time before hitting the vault.
As long as it isn't evidently better and gives an edge over f2p players that is.1 -

I had a lot of fun running him at lower levels with mostly or all colorless cards. On a colorless node he's very powerful at any level 6 (when he gets his first ability, I think) or above. I'm really looking forward to playing with Tefari too, I've got enough runes saved that I could max him immediately if I wanted to.

I got him to level 34 or 35 just because I wanted to add an extra spell to an already working awesome deck. While he clearly gets even better later I absolutely wouldn't say he's useless until 40.0

I'm sure when he has access to all colors he's quite a force to be reckoned with, I just can't see him as a mono-colored walker being much more than a late-game beast. Outside of PvE events, the edge of battle seems to favor the fast-aggressive player.

I mostly want Karn if only because, if I can't make a good deck for him, at least I can sacrifice him to master my cards. You know, for due to being a planeswalker who can play all cards.0

I'd never use Karn on color locked node. He's a PVE and all color walker exclusively. There are better choices when you have a color locked node.0

He is amazingly good imo. His first lets you both draw an extra card for 4 loyalty (not bad) it also lets you pick between the first 3 (amazing). Also, whichever ones you don't select can be snagged reliably by his 2nd later in the game. Once you get going you are sifting through 4+ cards a turn. That is unbelievably strong.
His third is one of the better skills in the game and yet I rarely play it. But a 12/12 prevent damage that digs out supports every turn... wowzers.
I actually think he has THE BEST skillsets in the game (yes, NB and Kiora.. including you). His only downfall in color locked nodes is his access to cards basically turns him into a mono-walker. And you are usually better off going with a dual.
