She can kill SORIN MARKOV. Maybe she's sorin's ex-girfriend.

A 2 power first striker for two would be good enough on its own, especially with the vampire creature type. Throw in an unimaginably useful utility and you've got an obvious winner. 4.5/5

@ratchet1215 How about turn 1?
Play the Depths, Lotus Petal or some other free way to add B to your mana pool, Dark Ritual, Hexmage, sacrifice.
Congratulations. You now have a game ender on the first turn. Heck, if you use that leftover B on Sol Ring and tap that for a Lightning Greaves and attack for game.

With this card they have made mon black casual incedibly powerful. You would be a fool not to use this with dark depths,even if the token gets pathed,or boomeranged....they printed grim discovery in the same set.....this may have been done to push vamps big time....not only are the new vampire decks fast and deadly, but throwing out 20/20 fly/indest avatars T1--T3 is crazy awesome for my fav color.

Allies will hate this. She can deal first strike damage, then sac to remove the counters.

I wouldn't mind a turn-three (or even turn-two) 20/20 Marit Lage token courtesy of this and Dark Depths. Very cool card, and not a design space that we've seen in-depth before. 4/5

Removing loyalty =/= killing planeswalkers. They just bounce the hell away from the plane. In Hexmage's case, it would probably be something akin to convincing the planeswalker that they shouldn't follow the player's orders anymore.

Seriously, pound for pound this is one of the best cards in black I've seen in a while that wasn't totally broken. Unless you have absolutely no use for counter removal. Then it's still a great card, just not awesome.
First 5/5 I've ever rated.

The fact that it has First Strike makes it quite useful beyond just killing Planeswalkers. Slap an equipment on and swing away, then sac when she's spent.
