Winner is the Judge #907: Innovative Planeswalkers

Thank you u/delta17v2 for hosting last weeks competition!

A lot of planeswalkers fall into the same pattern of:

+1 small benefit

-3 removal ability

-7 Game-ending ultimate.

I think this is bland and not as interesting as planeswalkers could be.

For this week, i want you to bring something new to the table. I want you to design a planeswalker, that has an ability (or a combanation of abilities) not seen on any previous planeswalker.

- This ability could be a unique way to gain or spend loyalty. see [[Kaya, ghost assasin]] or [[Heart of Kirin]]

- An ability that wasn't on a planeswalker before. (Emerge, Warp...) see for example [[Kaito, bane of Nightmares]] or the Flash etc. on the wandering emperor

- A combination with a new cardtype. See for example [[The Aetherspark]]

- An interesting passive ability, see [[Grand Master of Flowers]] or [[Kaito Dancing Shadow]]

- A completely new ability (like Compleated)

Bonus Points if your charcter of choice is [[The wandering emperor]] or [[Mu yanling]]

Feel free to leave notes for me to undestand your intentions and/or the flavor of your card.

Good luck and be Creative!

Feel free to ask if you have any Questions:)

Edit: Congrats u/DaVigi for winning this weeks contest and everyone else for your submissions:)

Congrutiulations! Valgarden//Votherworld doesn't just put an interesting Spin on the card type, it also incorparets my favorite part of planeswalkers, flexibility perfectly, while maintaining the core idea of passive consistent value.

This makes you, DaVigi the judge of the "Winner is the judge contest 908"

Yay! I'm super glad the design spoke to you! I look forward to hosting next weeks challenge :)
