How is this?
"Wee Seedriders enters the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it." and "Remove a +1/+1 counter from Wee Seedriders: Wee Seedriders gains flying until end of turn." are different abilities, so they should be separated.
Also Undying comes after all those effects.

Beautiful art btw!
That's pretty good. Only thing is it should say "Warrior of Parthenos deals 2 damage to ..." Many people don't mention damage source on their cards and just make them say "Deal N damage to ...", but that's wrong wording.
If Electropotence said ", deal damage equal to..." and you put out black creature, we don't know which one deals damage. We don't know which color to choose when we want to prevent that damage with Mother of Runes protection ability.

Thanks.
Being impossible to kill is the idea. Something like the Blinking Spirit but even better.
Anytime! Btw I know a little tip that might be useful on that card; -1/-1 counters cancel +1/+1 counters.
So if it is says "Put a -1/-1 counter on Wee Seedriders:", "Wee Seedriders enters the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it." part isn't necessary.
Just my idea.
how is this?
So here is the new wording. Any suggestions? https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/wee-seedriders

I commented on your card.
This card okay?
The cost, starting loyalty and time it takes to use the ultimate seems fine, but does it put them onto their owners battlefield, or all onto your battlefield?
I'd swap the first and second abilities, and change to destroy ability to a negative. In terms of abilities that destroy things, Nicol Bolas is the only planeswalker that gains loyalty when destroying something, and he's a cheater. Most of these abilities (that aren't ultimates) are -2 or -3, but I don't see it as much of an issue being just a -1 ability.
I think that the mechanics are actually really interesting - Being able to get 2 zombies by pitching creatures sounds very fun. Disposal is a cool mechanic, and the whole thing feels very resonantly black.
It may be slightly overcosted, but I think it'd be tough to make cheaper without making it broken. Besides, I might not be the best person for that part.
I can only see a couple things that would need changing - I found the art, it's by Ryan Barger, and unfortunately already appears on the card Grim Guardian from Journey Into Nyx (link: http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=380430). I might recommend changing it, but it really only bothers me when it's art from a real card that I recognize, so if it doesn't bother you, you don't have to. If you keep this art, credit the artist in the comments (since now you know who it is).
The flavor text, also, could be changed. It feels kind of odd and forced, and the grammar's off, but the rest of your wording for the card is almost spot-on. Overall, nice card! Seems very fun to play in any sort zombie/token commander deck.
I will remake the card with a fairer balance. Thanks.
On the ultimate, it is a hinky wording because you only get 145 characters. The ability is Living Death on a planeswalker. It might need errata but there’s not much I can do to fit it on the card.
I figured as much, I just wanted to be sure I understood how everything was working.
Twine Prosperer would be more balanced like this:
"Whenever you cast another spell, you may add one mana of any of its colors."
Mystical Deliverance seems a bit quirky?
Tishana, the Interluding Tide seems to strong!
@fire12
Glossary is kinda fun
The cost vs P/T looks fine. The second ability is interesting and good. I like the flavor text!
Your card name disagrees with the name in the text box.
I don't know what melee means (my fault, not yours)
The art doesn't look very giant
Thanks, yes, his old name was in the rules text!
Melee.
For art... yeah kinda. I think I'll leave it for flavor reasons.
So in a duel, Melee means a creature gets +1/+1 when it attacks; but it's better when your dudes are attacking more than one enemy. Got it.
Still seems good. I like it!
I've yet to write flavor text.
You made me think of this old list of mine randomly:

Goes infinite in a ton of ways.
