Are you ready to meet your savior?  You're not ready:

Woah.
Pretty cool? I think she's a little too much though, CMC wise.
Without ramp I don't see her being very Standard worthy, and pulling her a a pre-release would be VERY hard to run, in Limited you have 18 lands, 22 other cards, that's the best way to make Limited decks IMO. To cast her you would need almost half! I don't deny the fact that she is a frekin' TANK though! But Triple White is hard...
I'm thinking green/white token ramp decks are coming. With birds and llanowars she can be out on turn 4

True, but Limited does play slower... FWIW

Definitely think she a little overpowered.

Everyone just sideboards 4x {tragic slips}, 4x {black suns zenith}, from now on I guess.
And my infect deck may get played a little more before they rotate out. Lol

SpiritedAway

She's out of this world on the coo factor by all means, art flavor and function.

Her playability is obviously in question, but sometimes that's not what's so important. MTG is about having fun ultimately and she's so sweet.

Anybody thought of cool ways to use her yet? My half serious one was to cast her at instant speed in response to a {Day of Judgement}. Silly I know, but imagine the look on the other guys face. "I just paid four mana to kill my own creatures."

This is what I thought at first too, then I saw the preorder price online (15 dollars on http://www.starcitygames.com/ )and it dawned on me. LEGACY REANIMATOR!!!

True, true.  I just like the idea of windmill slapping her down on the table in response to a {NNevinyrral's Disk} going BOOM!  XD

To the person asking about cool ways to use her...it may not be as effective as elesh norn or Iona, but sue could be a replacement in the u/w urzatron eldrazi build by luis Scott Vargas. Gifts ungiven her and unburial rights. She could be a half decent modern card if ramped or reanimated properly.

She'll no doubt see play in standard too. Probably naya pod, wolf run white, and frites!
