idk if the +1 has been done before, but i think it's cool also the name is funny because.. you probably get it
Vraska, the Petrifying
Legendary Planeswalker - Vraska
+1 Put a petrification counter on target creature. (Creatures with petrification counters gain "This creature can't attack and is an artifact in addition to other types.)
-2 You may tap target artifact. If you do, create a Treasure token. If you don't, create two Treasure tokens.
-4 Create a Treasure token, then destroy all non-token artifacts.

This seems like a pretty strong planeswalker, but i could be wrong.

ok, what do you think. I like the idea of creating Treasures because i feel like Vraska would definitely keep former enemies as statues or 'treasures'

The only issue with destroy all artifacts is that it destroys treasures, too. You can have it destroy all non-token artifacts instead, or something similar, instead. Or destroy all creatures and make that many treasures. That sounds pretty Gorgon-like. Also, most planeswalkers with creature removal abilities generally have them on their minus (think Liliana of the Veil, Ob Nixilis Reignited, Karn Liberated, etc), so I think that puts in perspective how powerful creature removal is. Planeswalkers with creature removal as a plus get banned like Oko, Thief of Crowns. I really like what you’ve got going here, though.

Oops, how did i not see that it destroys my Treasures too. Fixed.
Also yeah, this feels very Oko-like, although I don't think it's as powerful.

TypicalTimmy yeah i thought it was strong, but i didn't know it was THAT strong
would it be balanced as a 0 or -1 ability? or should i make it so they also get to tutor for a land
