Zule, Quaternary - 2WW Legendary Creature - Knight - Mythic Rare

When you cast Zule, Quaternary, if it's the fourth turn of the game, put four 1/1 white knight creature tokens with vigilance and on the battlefield. If it isn't, instead only put one 1/1 white knight creature token with vigilance on the battlefield. 2WW, Return Zule, Quaternary to your hand: Creatures you control get +1/+1 until end of turn.

"I'm the fourth to arrive, but not the last."

3/3

Would you play this guy in a hypothetical standard? Is he over costed, too powerful, too weak? Tell me what you think.

He doesn't sound too bad, I wouldn't use him as a deck staple but I could see it get some play.

I feel like his set up cost is too easy. Attacking with four 2/2 Vigilant creatures on turn five seems strong. Plus he also boosts all other creatures you might have, and he triggers any ETB triggers a ton of times.

Idea is interesting, but mechanically not something that I ever foresee being done. Technically as printed and with the way turns are counted in sanctioned MTG events you would have to be on the draw, play Plains and Sol Ring on your first turn, put a second Plains down on your second turn and play him. Wizards counts each player's turn and adds them together for what turn the game is on. Just look at going to turns in a tournament.

You probable want it to say "your fourth turn", as per Serra Avenger.

When you cast Zule, Quaternary put a 1/1 white knight creature token with vigilance on the battlefield. If it is your fourth turn, put four of those tokens on the battlefield instead.

Is how the templating would need to be for the first ability. Use Conqueror's Pledge, Increasing Devotion, or Rite of Replication for examples. There is the ability with the extra tokens as a replacement following a period.

I had completely forgotten about Serra Avenger, apparently it is more likely than I thought.
