So what is the rule?
I know last I heard about this was if the same planeswalker enters on your side of the battlefield you pick which one stays in play and sacrifice the other correct? But does this affect apply to creature cards as well? And what cards does it apply to? Rare? Mythic Rare? Or do the cards have to be considered Legendary for this affect to apply?

Correct, and it is the same for creatures. The legend rule now states that you choose one to die and one to stay. This only applies to legendary permanents that have the same English name. Rarity is not affected by this. You can have as many mythical as you want on your field.

Does that mean you can have a normal {Tajic, Blade of the Legion} and a Chinese Tajic on at the same time? ;)
I knew that the 'Legendary Rule' was changed but I didn't know that the 'Planeswalker Uniqueness' rule was changed also. I looked it up though and you are right, its a good thing you said something so I would realize that.

No, because when you translate Tajik back into English then it's Tajik and boom!
Darn! That would be cool!
Also note that planeswalker rule and legendary rule, while very similar, are slightly different. For example you can't have a {jace, architect of thought} and {jace, memory adapt} under control at the same time but you could have {niv-mizit, draconous} and {niv-mivit, the firemind} under your control
Did they change the legendary ruling again with the release of theros?
