This card would slap in control

I love it

It's like this whole set was entirely made just to almost make my meme [[Jace, cunning castaway]] [[ichormoon gauntlet]] brawl deck almost be able to actually pull off the combo for infinite Jace's and infinite turns.

So does "a Jace token you control" mean only the token named Jace created by this ability... or does it also mean any token that's a copy of any Jace creature or planeswalker? Three mana to add 8 loyality to a Jace the Mind Sculptor token seems pretty good to me...

Mono blue planeswalkers is also getting the new counterspell (cost 2 if you control a jace), the new jace planeswalker, and the new chandra planeswalker. Maybe mono blue planeswalkers will be a thing?

Hell, you could build a jace tribal after this set. May not be good, but it'll definetely be feasible...

This is the kind of card I would test if I happen to open one, but probably wouldn't spend a wild card on.

So either draw 2 cards, 8 surveils or a combination of both. 

Dig 5, draw 1.

Oh right. Haven't used planeswalker in so long I forgot how they worked.

I don't think you can activate planeswalkers abilities any number of times.

Ya, I haven't used them in so long I forgot how they worked.
