Planeswalker Rule Changes?
Ixalan. Great, right?
Unfortunately, spoilers. Spread sheets way ahead of time were leaked. Low quality, but still.
Images of planeswalkers and more were leaked. A few are visible. One thing stands out though.
Can you see it?
The Type and Subtype on this card, which is clearly a Golgari Planeswalker, is clearly way larger than usual.
There is a long, almost as large as "Planeswalker", word coming BEHIND Planeswalker in its Type.
If, as some suggested, it is "Legendary", how do you guys think the rules will turn out to be like?

On second thought, double or triple Jaces would be kinda annoying!
Lol, I think 2+ planeswalkers always feels annoying, unless you have direct damage spells. (There are few great answers that work on planeswalkers!)
As to how it affects rules, I sure hope it doesn't allow multiple Jaces with different names on to be on the battlefield at the same time. Another ramification might be that they could print nonlegendary planeswalkers, like nonlegendary everything else. If that is the case they could probably print random nameless planeswalkers at lower rarities. (You never know, this could be their main goal.)
I only have one issue with having the Planeswalkers come under the Legendary rule. It would mean they can be affected by Mirror Gallery which if that is the case we'll have problems in Legacy of people having multiple Mind Sculptors out at the same time or even multiple Gideons, Adjanis, or any other Planeswalkers.
If they were to make this move then more than a dozen Planeswalkers would be on their way to the banned or restricted list if not Mirror Gallery itself. Mirror Gallery's price would explode.
