I actually really like it, except the ultimate can be TERRIBLE.

not if your deck has instances or sorceries in it. Think about it...

You start off with 60 cards
Draw 7

That's 53 cards.

On turn 4 you can summon her, your deck will then have 49 cards

Four or five turns later, you can ulti her, your deck will have 44-45 cards

If you only had 4 instances/sorceries left in your deck, that's pretty good chances you'll hit one, and get to copy it three times. And chances are, if you put her in your deck, you'll have probably somewhere around 20.

I'd say it is pretty easy to make her ulti abusable

[Coffee Vampire]

Chandra, y u so bad?

I thought about it but also, you could and probably would mull away some I'd your best cards.

i guess her ulti is a victory condition than

Also, sometimes you have to make sacrifices in order to win in games. Chess, for example

[Bookmeister]

Make sure you are playing 4 {Lava Axe}'s.

[Silent1236]

Um. I actually like Chandra.  Love the +1. When Innistrad rotates, I may switch my WU weenie to RW.

[Birdbrain]

She's going to have to go in some kind of R/x burn deck I'd think. Of the new cards I'm most interested in copying triggered abilities...that card has potential to be seriously abused right now.

i can think of a few other decks than burn to put her in. For example, she works great with {melek, izzet paragon}

[Birdbrain]

There are other cards that could make Chandra good other than Melek

[Quackmaster5]

Who has seen Kalohnian hydra? HOLY CRAP.

with all the scavenge and evolve counters stuff out there, he is a BEASTTTTT! He drops, you have to kill him.

[Quackmaster5]

He doubles everyone's counters INCLUSIVE! Even though he is detain-able, slap  {Alpha Authority} on this sucker and say hello to the new thragtusk.

[FlickerYourOwnIdentity]

I like the two hydras together.

[Quackmaster5]

They are scary together. This is turning out to be a very good core set. I might be picking up a box of this.

[Birdbrain]

I'm definitly playing in this sets prerelease

[MuggyWuggy]

I now believe, having Sliver being spoiled in all color, that we get a 5-color Sliver Planeswalker now. Probably something that either tutors for them, or does a {Sliver Queen} ability.

Id hope no sliver queen copies. Don't be messin with muh prices

The revelation of the slivers though definitely makes them look daunting, life link, double strike and flying for such low mana
