I actually decided to run it as the commander on my current Dragons deck and has worked out greatly even without much sinergy with dragons: it's 4 mana so I usually drop it turn 2-3 and get a free attack on Boo as a 4/4. Then I usually go back to ramping and just plus Boo without attacking so I have a 7/7 protecting my planeswalker which is almost always enough to survive to turn 5: that's when I usually minus and sacrifice Boo, get rid of a bothersome creature (I.E. the often only flying blocker someone might have) or just face-burn someone then draw 7 and usually have at least a couple of really big dragons come in, sometimes with haste if I managed to get a haste source in the ramping turns. It's a great plan that really propels up those Dragons that usually come in to just wipe out someone or overwhelm the board with treasures, damage, both, etc.

An interesting lack of Tevesh Szat, Doom of Fools. I've found that the fact that it has a +2 that defends itself, card advantage, and a game-winning or at least swinging ult makes it an incredibly good Planeswalker in Commander (espc since it also has partner). The fact that the ult returns himself if he dies to do so (which means an additional activation, either making more creatures or sacing another player's commander for more cards) is just silly frankly.

Another thing to remember about Liliana Dreadhorde General is her ult is a win condition in most cases. So playing her in some decks (such as Carth the Lion) with any way to proliferate out means she just nukes your opponents back to turn 1 basically.

@hobez64 2 ай бұрын

To be fair that is true for a lot of Planeswalkers

@nerd2death899 2 ай бұрын

@@hobez64 not necessarily. Many planeswalkers have ults or abilities that don't win or change the game enough in commander because they're more one v one focused. It's why for my Carth deck (which tries to have an ult read either the turn they come down or the next turn) I had to be really choosey about who went in and who didn't because so many of the options you have don't actually further a winning state in a multiplayer format. But Liliana Dreadhorde General definitely does.

Not unexpected to have it not be chosen, but Tezzeret, Master of the Bridge is my favorite planeswalker and extremely powerful. Not only does it give affinity for artifacts for creatures, but its +2 ability drains each opponent for how many artifacts you control. Insanely powerful game ender and pretty easy to get 10+ artifacts on the board by the time you drop it. Also, I find Tamiyo, Collector of Tales to be super underrated. Not super threatening when she comes down, but you can mill through your deck looking for a specific card or just get a card back from your graveyard.

I may be biased because I got him in the XBOX edition for free back in the day, but I love the original Garruk Wildspeaker. +1 to untap 2 lands (preferably bounce, Nykthos, Cradle, Itlimoc etc.) is making him basically a free cast and great value piece in the right hands. -1 for a 3/3 Beast and -4 for an overrun effect are also not the worst things that can happen to a combat focused deck. Sure, by far not the most powerful card ever printed, but it's putting in good work in many decks and is almost always not identified as super threatening until it is too late

The way I play Planeswalkers is to use them as a distraction to my opponent(s) They often come in handy for a quick upside by minusing them and then they draw a lot of attention while I'm working to build my board. The interesting thing is they mostly end up as fodder but sometimes they have turned the tide for myself or another opponent. Opportunity given, especially in commander can put you on top especially if they give some type of evasion. I'm sure everyone has their own preference, but I try to throw at least one synergistic Planeswalker into a lot of my decks. Thanks for the video. Always enjoy.

Something to keep in mind is how some planeswalkers will just end the game if they stick long enough to ult. Chances are low that you get there, but it’s still a chance you just win with the card in x turns. There’s a difference between the best walkers for any deck any time and the best ones for a walker deck. Ults are a lot more achievable in decks with doubling season, proliferation, protection, or other shenanigans. A planeswalker I like that does some of both the og Sorin Markov, if you need it to come down and end the problem player then it will and if you’re the problem player then it’s a distraction that gains buffer life and picks off creatures that will win on its own if unanswered.
