New Teferi for Commander
Spoilers, Rumors, and Speculation forum

What do you think? Good? Bad?
Personally I think he's ok. Very, very powerful but costs 6 mana which is fair enough. Although I feel that he might give a bit too much value to control decks.

If they do Serra, they need to have her make 4/4 angel tokens with vigilance somehow, because Serra Angel . It'd be perfect even if she was the worst planeswalker ever printed otherwise.

I find it funny, the day before this card was spoiled I was playing around the idea if planeswalkers were commanders lol. IO tested this using my mono black deck and running Liliana Vess as my commander. It got stupid fast lol. I would like if there is a mono colored planeswalker in the five colors that you can use as a general but thats it. I would not want to see more planeswalker commanders. I like this new idea.

Taking a guess at what PW's will be in which colors... assuming they are going to all be PW's which do not currently have PW cards.
Blue = Teferi... (pretty sure I have this one right)
White = Serra
Black = Leshrac or Ob Nixilis
Red = Faralyn or Jaya Ballard
Green = Freyalise
There really are a lot to choose from though...

More likely Yawgmoth or Leshrac, Ob Nixilis just got himself a new card.

I think all if these will be interesting. Probably highly imbalanced but interesting nonetheless

Yawgmoth.... he's not a Planeswalker.
I think Leshrac is the more likely candidate for Black... but some people have been asking for Ob as a PW since his first creature card. While true we just got him as a creature, we shouldn't rule it out... Xenagos, The Reveler --> Xenagos, God of Revels in the same block. And story/flavour wise, commander sets really aren't bothered with it.

Really I'd like to see Lim-Dul again but I don't think he was ever actually a planeswalker; he just fought planeswalkers. I could have sworn Yawgmoth was one at some point.

No, Yawgymoth was able to hop to Phyrexia and take it over because of his ancient Thran artifacts he found, if my lore is correct.

I just realized something guys. Yeah the emblem lets you use loyalty abilities during other players turns, BUT YOU CAN USE THEM IN RESPONSE TO SPELLS AND ABILITIES. DURING YOUR TURNS. DURING OTHER TURNS. WHAT THE HECK.
I'll attack your Vraska the Unseen . In response, I'll use her +1.
I'll Hero's Downfall your Venser, the Sojourner . In response, I'll use his +2, targeting himself.
I need this card so bad for my five color superfriends deck with all 48 planeswalkers in it...

If this is Teferi pre-mending, then it seems odd how his power level is so tame. Pre-mending PW's were ridiculously powered in the past.
This is an interesting loophole that wizards has done, as it lets them circumvent their 'dead is dead' rule in story design. I would like to see an Urza planeswalker card, but any pre-mending walkers can't have accurate cards done with them.
