Take an Oath
This challenge is pretty simply, but you're going to have some work to do. Simply put, I loved Zendikar and I love the Gatewatch. So here's my challenge: make a planeswalker, then make an oath that corresponds with it.
A little about the oaths: they've got to be legendary enchantments with two abilities. The first one activates when it enters the battlefield, and the second is an ability that has to do with if a planeswalker entered the battlefield under your control the last turn or some interaction with planeswalkers. Here are the actual oaths:
Nissa: http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name=Oath+of+Nissa
Gideon:

There's a new one out in the eldritch moon spoilers but I'm going to leave that up to you to see who it is.
Also, you'll win some good points if you manage to get some flavor text in there that's a quote from the planeswalker about they're oath.
Good luck, and I love this so much I might try to make a few oaths of my own!
Also, don't worry about getting a picture that is with the whole right hand in the air with a close-up of the planeswalker lol
I should probably say the prizes too haha:
First-5 favorites
Second-3 favorites
Third-1 favorite
The biggest thing I'm looking for is how well the oath matches the planeswalker without necessarily taking an ability straight from the planeswalker.

No. Another planeswalker has an "Oath of ..." In eldritch moon
But you can probably tell who from deploy the gatewatch

I'm secretly hoping Tamiyo takes an oath because she's my favorite planeswalker, but I doubt it cause they've got the entire color pie filled now

I wanted to knock off the 1 in the mana cost, but then I felt it would be too OP.

Comments on the Oath are greatly appreciated! Hop on over and comment/fave it! I'd love to know what you think!

No limit to entries! I'm really excited to see some of the Oaths people come up with, so you can makes as many as you want. (I've already made like 7 even though its my challenge. It just think its a fascinating concept. And I run a 5 color General Tazri ally edh deck that's got 21 planeswalkers in it so these oath's are about the only non creature, non planeswalker spells I get in it).

What do you mean? It's tricky playing most of them cause you're in a 5 color deck so most of your lands enter tapped and you're struggling to get the right mana but I play them. They almost never get to their ultimates but that's not the point. People are too worried about the ultimates that they attack the planeswalkers at every chance instead of me. I just swing at players and they just swing at my planeswalkers.
And three of them are flip walkers so they are harder to play too, so they almost never make it to planeswalker form.
