So, does anyone else find the Golgari Planeswalker just insane? All of her effects are super solid and her ultimate is crazy. Image is this  opinions? I just love this planeswalker, and I am ordering 4 of them now before they go crazy

Hmmm...Would it be worth splashing green into a ninja deck just to make sure that the people in your social multiplayer group now hate you?
you know, get the ultimate ability and attack with some unblockable creature, then ninjutsu into sakishima's student copying one of the 1/1 assassin tokens generated by the planeswalker. student then deals damage and your opponent loses.
that's all I've thought of so far.

looking like black/green decks are going to be scary in this set. especially that 4 mana black demon

A gorgon theme deck would be nice, but I do agree she seems a bit over powered.
I imagine that rare R/B sorcery that destroys a creature or planeswalker is going to be quite popular also.

Am I the only person who thinks that shes just "good"?
Let me break down how I see it.
First she costs 5 and from my understanding a lot of decks would rather do more relevant things than her +1
Second her plus ability is cute. Efficient sometimes but cute nonetheless. If she +1s I will gladly swing at her with my own 5 drop Thragtusk if its my turn 6. When the gorgons trigger goes on the stack, Resto Angel or even let it die. If they were on the play, odds are I will still have a Strangleroot to shove in her face. I just need to press about 3 damage onto her and more would be better obviously.
Third the -3 is fantastic. I wish it could be used twice in a row but that would be too good huh?
Fourth the -7 is kinda gimmicky in my opinion. Its a win con that takes two turns of +1, a turn to -7, and the turn to attack and only if they have no creatures to damage her loyalty, or block the 3 creatures, with lets say lingering souls, its a bust. With proliferate it gets more plausible but with Dev Tide, Bonfire, Terminus, Uncounterable DoJ, Mutilate and the 3 Overload spells, its not very likely they will live.
Now that I talked about downs, lets talk about the ups. The color combo tends to kill everything so if something is alive, she most likely wont be the target. The creature color combo also tends to have a few doods at all times so it can defend her pretty well if you plan to -3 a lot. The -7 is still weak and gimmicky. And I like gimmicky. So much so that with Doubling Season an Parallel Lives, the ability seems so much better than it actually is. therefore I will put her into my EDH deck for that reason. I lurves me some token generators.

Now that you mention it, it would be pretty cool to add Vraska to my Kresh the Bloodbraided commander deck. However, if I was pressed for space, I would probably want to add cards like diabolic revelation, Corpsejack menace over her. I would definitely auto include Death's Presence though.
Out of interest, what generl are you running for your EDH?

My pride and joy, I love me some tokens. http://tappedout.net/mtg-decks/ghave-guru-of-spores-25-08-12-1/ I dont think she will compare to other walkers already there unless Elspeth comes to ruin everyones day.

Remember this guy? No immediate (+)effect Situational (-)effect Good Ultimate Same can be said of Vraska No immediate (+)effect : you don't want creatures swinging at your planeswalker Good (-)effect: extra destroy effect always good Situational Ultimate: 4 turns before you swing with these tokens. Do you really think your opponent will do nothing in the meantime?

Do you really think your opponent will do nothing in the meantime? I kind of agree. Though they are similar in those aspects, Tibalt's +1 doesn't do anything to protect him which is apparently important for walkers now adays and it takes 2 turns to -4 and he dies where Vreska's +1 can protect her from some creature and she can -3 as soon as she drops, deal with a major threat, then act as a meat shield or block with troll and regen, skeleton and replay from the yard... she is more useful in her color combination than Tibalt is in red, even in non-standard environments. She is still only an ok card and, as much as it pains me to say it, Tibalt is just bad

To be honest I have two Vraska's in my deck. She becomes a target so fast it ain't funny. I haven't been able to ultimate her once. Now I did pull off an amazing combo with Ajani Caller of the Pride and Champion of Lambholt.
