I noticed modern masters is coming out quite soon, and was wondering if it would be standard?
No, it won't. The next Standard set will be the M14 Core set.
Ok thanks
Modern Masters is just a reprint of awesome Modern cards. Such as {Tarmogoyf}, {Angel's Grace}, {Path to Exile}, or {Æther Spellbomb}.

All the good cards ever printed in modern format before zendikar will be in the set
Hey just wondering about the way that a planeswalker takes damage like is is another person on the battle field
It is not considered another player, however you may attack it or resirect direct damage spells such as {Searing Spear} after targeting the oppenent. Hope that helps
An excellent place to post questions like this is the rules section. Just a friendly reminder!

That's a good way to think of it. In many ways, it is like another player. When you attack with a creature, you must either attack your opponent, or a plainswalker that he or she controls. Whenever a plainswalker takes damage, it loses loyalty counters. If a plainswalker has no loyalty counters, it goes to the graveyard. Whenever you resolve noncombat damage against a player, you may redirect it to a plainswalker. For instance, you cast {Shock}, targeting your opponent, who controls the plainswalker {Garruk, Primal Hunter} at 2 loyalty counters. Your opponent says "ok", letting the shock resolve. Then you say "redirect the damage to garruk." Now, instead of your opponent taking damage, his or her plainswalker will. Since {Shock} deals 2 damage and your opponent's plainswalker had 2 loyalty counters, it is sent to the graveyard of its owner.
