Planeswalker Commanders

MultiverseExplorer · June 2017

Your task is to create a planeswalker with the ability "(Planeswalker Name) can be your commander."
Because MTG Cardsmith doesn't support 4 ability planeswalkers, make a 3 ability planeswalker, then when you enter put underneath your planeswalker "[Planeswalker Name] can be you commander."

Layout:

Entry
Phrase "[Planeswalker Name] can be your commander."
Optional: What type of deck the planeswalker works best with.

Judging: 20th of June.
Prizes:
1st: 5 Likes + Choose one hon. mention.
2nd: 4 Likes
3rd: 3 Likes
Hon. Mention: 1 Like
Anyone who mentioned what archetype the commander is in and layed it out correctly automatically gets the planeswalker liked. (AND +1 like if you win.)

(You choose what cards are liked, I like them.)

Good luck and happy smithing.

Here is an example entry:

(Yao, Grizzled Beastmaster can be your commander.)
Yao is meant for URG mana ramp and creature control based strategies.

@MultiverseExplorer I tried to make your card look real as a little exercise because I thought it was sad that we cannot put "CARDNAME can be your commander" directly on the card ^^

I just corrected the templating a little using the following existing cards:
- http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=374631&part=Prophet+of+Kruphix
- http://gatherer.wizards.com/Handlers/Image.ashx?multiverseid=275711&type=card
- http://gatherer.wizards.com/Handlers/Image.ashx?multiverseid=426937&type=card
- http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=384345&part=Chord+of+Calling
- http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=426761

And it looks like this:

@ningyounk what card maker did you use?

ningyounk · June 2017

@Hergusbergus: Magic Set Editor (if you look there is a template for planeswalkers with four abilities) and just a touch of Photoshop at the end to get the character out of the borders

Here's one that can be your commander by default:

Can't say I think he'd be that great of a commander though. You'd need a lot of sacrificial synergies.

Thank you @ningyounk.

(Li Sen, Martial Master can be your commander.)

I think I accidentally made a tribal planeswalker, but I'm honestly not sure. I just know that Li Sen is designed to overwhelm the opponent with small creatures that get bigger with the last ability, increasing them multiplicatively in power. The "Honor" mechanic is designed around the ritual of "seppuku", which negates any opponent's "destroy this creature, get a benefit" abilities.

(Ezorr, Ashor, and Icthius can all be commanders.)

Ezorr: U/B Control that doesn't mind wasting some time with a slow 'walker
Ashor: Red Prison-esque deck
Icthius: G/B -1/-1 Synergies or just G/B/x Value

I made these a while back, they are supposed to go together- I had started designing my own tribal commander set before 2017 was announced and with blue faeries black nightmares, green treefolk, red Djinn, and--- never really thought white through

Here is something:

TenebrisNemo · June 2017

Alzbeth, Curse Channeler can be your commander.

RohanDragoon · June 2017

Haasen, Arrow of Morning can be your commander.

He's meant for a r/w aggro angel deck, something that might have had an Aurelia or an Anya as a commander

Werewolf Commander!

-FLIP-

The walker boarder should look like this, but I went with green only 'cause gold is ugly.
