Pardon me if this is a repeated question...new player here. I got a hold of my first Planeswalker, the flame-wielding Chandra Nalaar, and am itching to get her into play. I know she is not a creature, but more like an allied player, but when I activate one of her abilities, say add one loyalty counter for 1 damage to another player, can I add 2 loyalty counters and do 2 damage, and so on? Also, does she tap when used, though she does not technically attack? This is my most confusing card, as of yet. Thanks in advance for any help!

Ok when a planeswalker is on the field. You may use one of their abilities a turn at sorcery speed. You may not do a negative unless you have the right number of locality counters on it. It can be attack, but doesn't attack. It will not tap unless by another effect, it can still use it's abilities.
RESOLVED
You can only use one loyalty ability per turn and only on your turn on either of your main phases.PW's do not need tapped .
Perfect, thank you!
