Tibalt in Wonderland

Legendary Planeswalker - Tibalt

Whenever a creature dies, put a loyalty counter on Tibalt in Wonderland.

-1: Until end of turn, whenever a creature you control attacks, it deals 1 damage to defending player or planeswalker.

-4: Tibalt in Wonderland deals 5 damage divided as you choose among any number of creatures. For each creature that died this way, put a 1/1 black and red Devil Faerie creature token with flying onto the battlefield.

Overall, I like this card. To go through each ability:

• The first ability is a fun, flavourful way for Tibalt to gain loyalty.
• The second ability is fairly powerful, particularly in Limited. Hellrider has a similar effect for . I think the cost is a bit pushed at , but forcing multicoloured and the loss of loyalty mitigates that some. Overall, we have seen a lot of 3-mana planeswalkers recently that are a bit pushed, so I think this ability is A-okay as-is.
• The last ability should probably be a -6, not a -4. At -4, this card effectively becomes a 5-damage, flexible sorcery for that also nets you evasive tokens. That's unheard of--the closet I could find was Fiery Justice , and that has the added penalties of being three colours and giving an opponent life. At -6, you have to put in some work to make the ability function. It also means you are operating at a net loss (which feels in line with Tibalt)--since you can use your tokens to generate loyalty, -6 means you're gaining, at most 5 tokens/potential loyalty; whereas -4 puts you as coming out ahead.

The last ability can only target creatures. I already thought about that. That's why it doesn't target players. Since he can only gain loyalty from creature death, he needs to be able to realistically be able to both "ult" and use his Hellrider ability.
