Title: New plane thing?
Post by: Mlerner12 on October 16, 2013, 10:36:11 PM
In Purifying Fire, there was a plane Gideon and Chandra went to, and had to do a lot of stuff because they couldn't leave... It was really cool and intense. I'm thinking they'll go there soon. If you've read that book i think they'll make a new Chandra... Like {Chandra, the Pure} or something and make it {R}{R}{W}{1} and would be the best Chandra, by far. Any ideas on if this might happen?

Well that makes sense being both Boros, but still identifiable as their characteristics.

All 3 of those Planeswalker novels were stupendous. I love the modern MtG lore.

Coming up with origional walkers on the spot is so much easier than reimagining existing personas.

I love it and it makes sense. One of her lesser abilities would have to deal with life to represent {W} too then.

I like that one a lot.

It would probably be similar to "the dark" though, since for a whole. The only mana there was black

There is a reason {Elspeth, Sun's Champion} costs 6. That plus ability is so OP.

Chandra, the Pure (1RRW)
4 starting loyalty

+1; deal 2 damage to all creatures and opponents. You gain life equal to the damage dealt.

-3; exile target creature or artifact. It's controller loses life equal to its casting cost

-8; in addition to activating this ability, pay X life. Chandra, the Pure deals 2 times X damage to opponents and creatures you don't control. Loss of life and damage can't be prevented this turn

+1 seems OP

I do like -A LOT- but I can't help thinking its a little more Orzhov than Boros. Maybe if you didn't choose how much life you loose (Greed) but it just did a specific amount (Chaotic, random chance), then it would be more redcentric, but I doooooo love it (which proves it's more Orzhov if I love it, haha).

It does seem like its a tad orzhova, but i think it'd really flow as a card. The +ability feeds into her ultimate. She fits into boros lightning helix archetype. She's geared to be the next EDH staple with her burn/utility powers.
