who do you want to see printed? I assume Uzra is a must haha

The interesting thing about these old walkers is that I believe they were printed as if they survived past the Mending. Otherwise they'd be much more powerful. The old, pre-Mending walkers were nearly immortal and had an incredible amount of power, being able to create planes, alter their appearance at will, and cast the hardest and most powerful spells for normal mages with ease. I believe that the printed pre-Mending walkers, Freyalise, Teferi, Nahiri, and possibly Ob Nixilis and Daretti depending on when they ascended in the timeline, are printed like the Neowalkers, without inherently broken abilities. It was an interesting way for Wizards to nerf them according to their lore abilities while still keeping them recognizable as outsiders.

As for Pre-Walkers I want printed? Probably Jaya Ballard, Jeska, and Leshrac Nightwalker would be pretty interesting.

Ugin for sure. It is totally feasible that Ugin gets a card with the time travel aspect of FRF. I will own one if they do. Don't even care if the card sucks. I'll still own it

I also like the ones GoldGhost012 suggested. Maybe throw a Serra in there (she was a walker right?)

Lord Windgrace would be cool, even as just a legendary creature or enchantment now that he is one with Urborg or whatever. Return to Dominra anyone?

I think they're going to make a Serra planeswalker card, especially after so many people expected the White commander to be Serra.

Can anyone tell me where I cam read the lore on this stuff because it looks seriously freaking cool and I feel like I'm missing out.

I'm probably stupid for wanting this (because I have 0 clue about lore), but Lazav is kinda my favorite dood ever... I'd love to see him as a planeswalker.

I want to see a Mishra planeswalker. But of course they'd have to do Urza as well.

Old planeswalkers are only game for products like the command decks just in case people don't know. Still cool, I just want people to know its not going to be that common. Even with the time travel element in khans

GoldGhost012: I think Maro said that the pre-mending planeswalkers were, lore-wise, supposed to be only letting you use a fraction of their power. They still are super powerful, but they do not bestow all of that power upon you. (They probably have better things to do.)

IATEAREPUBLICAN ~ this is my go to for lore related stuff. The First World is the Hardest is pretty dark but very well written in my opinion. It's the origin story for good old Ob Nixilis becoming Ob Nixilis of the Black Oath

Tap, sacrifice two creatures: target world dies.

You'll understand when you read it.

Bellock86 To be fair, that was an Alter he did it on, it's just like he just slit two throats and- SPOILER ALERT FOR ANYONE WHO IS READING- the demons just were all okay bro, and gave everyone brain aneurisms... buuuut he did know how the alter and ritual worked from memory sooo.... it's less "He did it personally" and more "He knew how to use the tools to do it"

FatherLiir ~ fair point. But still. My god that was awesome and terrifying at the same time. Lol

November 20, 2014 11:24 p.m.

IATEAREPUBLICAN also try mtgsalvations wiki thats where I usually find lore stuff written!

I really want Jeska to be turned into a planeswalker tbh!

Patrique ~ Jeska would be cool.

Another one I'd love to see is Kamahl, Fist of Krosa gone walker. He's been one of my favorite creatures for a long time.

Maybe he even revisits his red routes from when he was Kamahl, Pit Fighter and comes back . That'd be sweet
