Voila!

This card represents me as a magic player. What do you guys think?

Edit:

I just laughed when I saw my own title, should say "I Made Myself," not Myslef, not sure what that even means.

Hm, I remember when I made my card! nostalgia

I would either make his Ult like -7 or make his starting loyalty a bit higher. Usually, players should be able to get the ult in 4-5 turns when it takes 7 here.

FAMOUSWATERMELON Good point, I'll drop it to 7.

I had his first ability at +2 at first, and forgot to change the ultimate after I dropped it.

I think the only correct thing to do now is to make a new card with a creature named Myslef :D

Also, I think the abilities should be nonland instead of noncreature but maybe that's just me. And maybe with the +1 It could be one in hand, one in top of the library and one in bottom?

Hmm it's not black enough imo, but I think the biggest thing is uniqueness. To me it feels like Jace, the Mind Sculptor's 0, Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker's +2, and Jace, Architect of Thought's ult, although that's a bit of a stretch.

The only piece of advice is to try to work in 1-2 abilities that are unique in terms of compared to other planeswalkers abilities.

Let me give you an example. For me, my two favorite things are taking extra turns and having lots of creatures die. It's good to start of with 1-2 SIMPLE themes and work from there. As you will notice, when a Planeswalker does 3+ effects, that planeswalker might be broken. And I think it's pretty presumptuous to argue that one is a broken planeswalker.

Anyways back to my example. My planeswalker could be this:

+1: Sacrifice a creature. If you do, target opponent sacrifices a creature.

-3: Destroy target creature. If this is an extra turn, destroy up to one other target creature.

-8: Until end of turn, whenever a creature dies, you get an extra turn.

MagicalHacker I was never trying to make a cool or balanced planeswalker, as I say on my profile, I like to win, so I made a card that would help with that. It has a variety of powerful abilities, and something that many decks could use to help them win more. That is something I value.

Seriously though, I think the mana cost is too low. That would be a 5/6 cmc walker I would think.

Also, not sure if anyone gets the joke there, I am ok with that though.

The border is reminding me of The Ultimate Nightmare of Wizards of the Coast Customer Service. (Not Autocarding for some reason.)
