I know that this can be considered a good planeswalker because it can defend itself, give card advantage, and comes out earlier than the other Liliana Vess.

I just feel a little unhappy with this one. The other lili was just so much more epic. Also, I am not a fan of her Innistrad apparel.

Behold the new queen of Magic, and not just Standard, mind you. The new Liliana is appearing on everything, from the title screen for Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 (in which she has a killer deck) to the boxes included with Innistrad Fat Packs and even on the front page for magicthegathering.com. Liliana Vess has literally taken over all things Magic. Truly, the new dominant force in the Multiverse, at least until Bolas decides to get off his ancient ass.

EDIT: Oh shit! Bolas IS getting off his ass! For the 2013 Core Set! FFFFFUUUUUUUUUU-!!!

Love the card mechanically, will definitely play it, but not sold on the artwork. Her pose is so weird and the tilted perspective seems pretty unnecessary. Also it's really easy to miss the veil here since it's being covered up by that fire in her hand. Why not have her wear the veil when the card's name features it? And why aren't her marks glowing? I thought they were supposed to glow when she casts spells. Presumably the fire in her hands come from a spell.

Up to this date I had never ever owned a single Plainswalker nor a foil rare. So, today me and my friend opened and shared one booster box... Out of the 18 I opened I got this card, and in the next booster there was Garruk Relentless, in the next a _foil_ mayor of avabruck, and in the next a _foil_ Geist of Saint Traft.

Damn.

Opened it in my second Innistrad booster. First Mythic I ever opened. I knew she was good, but definetly not worth her hideously high price at the time, so I immediately sold her for a big bunch of boosters. I don't regret it at all - first because her price now has halved and I got Army of the Damned, Past in Flames, Mayor of Avabruck, Heartless Summoning and a foil Splinterfright, and second because of my Vorthos reasoning: it's what Liliana herself would have wanted me to do in that situation. I got a nice deal for myself and she probably got paired with a player who had the resources necessary to build a kick-ass deck with her.

Pulled one of these and two Snapcaster Mages in a fat pack last week.I like this version of liliana better (mainly because of the 1BlackBlack cost), but defintly NOT worth the $59.99 price tag.

Way to gouge SCG/ChannelFireball. Heres to hoping THAT goes down...

I'm still deciding on what deck to stick her in (most likely UB Control/Mill combo), but I finally managed to play a game with her when I lucked out during draft during FNM. Very useful when she comes up (largely fulfills the B, R, and A of Limited), but she definitely needs backup. There are a lot of ways to get rid of her.

5/5 for my favorite card ever printed. I love Black, I love sexy ladies, I like 3 drops, and I like control. She is all of these rolled into one card. Best planeswalker printed so far, take that Jace, the Mind Sculptor I had 3 of you and now I have 0, yet I have 5 Lilies, I opened 3 and traded up for other two.

Ha ha. Didn't expect to run into so many hardcore feminists on a magic site. I don't hate women in general though. Only a select few have earned that privilege, and are certainly not granted it based solely on their gender. Hell, I thought it was funny. I like the card and was personally amused when I realized that her list of abilities parallel three very prominent b!tchy female stereotypes. You know. Irony..? Well, a few people got it.

When did she become so god damn expensive and why? I just traded one away today before looking up the price, only realize now that I got a terrible deal by about $25. I don't understand how she can be worth $50.

......
yeah, I'd totally tap that. (searches Gatherer for things that tap Planeswalkers)

(2 years later: Ral Zarek taps her and untaps himself. oh yeah. ;D)

Case File: Liliana Vess, A Vorthos Dissertation-- Part One
Lorywn-- Liliana Introduced. Demonic debt hinted at. Shards of Alara-- Nicol Bolas returns. Malfegor killed and eliminated as candidate for one of Liliana's Demon Masters. Agents of Artifice-- Liliana trades Demonic Debt for Bolas Debt, except that Bolas isn't even sure he can keep his promise, and it's not like he ever intended to anyway. I conclude they are about equal, that Liliana and Bolas could do it together, and that as Black-aligned Planeswalkers that both have a love of pacts, deceit, and betrayal, the idea of using basically White strategy (alliance) is insane. We know these are the Top Dawg Demons because Bolas fears their combined power.

Curse of the Chain Veil (cance... (see all)

+1, Card Neutral
-2, Card Advantage
-6. Big flashy spell (choice of damnations)

I was thinking she may work as a 2-of in Legacy MBC by replacing a pair of removal spells with her. She allows repeatable card-advantage when you use her right. (Dump your hand so the +1 becomes an advantage. Do this in the midst of making the opponent sac two creatures.)

Quite possibly the second-best planeswalker to date, and we all know who ranks first...

@h8yuns: This is magic. Go find a more suitable forum to talk about how much you hate women.

@cg1248: Come on, those are common women-hating stereotypes. Just read what he says. I don't care if he hates women, I just don't want to read about this guy's ex-wife on a magic site.
