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.

Where I live, my opponents fear her. I put together a Standard "Sunburst" deck using Gideon, Jace, Chandra, 2 Relentless, and Liliana . . . they would opt to remove her first before the others. To be able to use her ultimate is such a rush to see your opponent just sit there and watch as I divide what they got. It's better to activate it as soon as possible, believe me.

I like to play this Liliana with Genesis. You discard Genesis into grave yard and then return any other creatures into your hand. You can do a combo with many creatures that have ability when come into play such as Solemn Simulacrum or eternal witness to help reviving all the strong creatures in your graveyard to your hand.

Pulled her out of 1 of 2 packs on Christmas day! Though sadly she is now only $35.

I remember a few months ago when she was $80 and someone at my LGS traded a Force of Will for her! He was playing Standard U/B control with 3 of her and 4 Snapcaster mages. It made my heart warm when my Standard, Pauper, Infect deck beat him 2-1. With my most expensive cards being 4 Glistener Elves (which were $1 at the time), the cumulative value of my deck couldn't have been over $10.

@Toquinha1977: It's funny you said she usually fills out the B, R and A, 'cause she's chesty and that spells BRA! Get it!? Chesty, bra. Lololol, anyway.
@TheWallinator74: That's exactly what Bolas wants, everyone to forget about him so he can jump out of the shadows and ninja you hardcore from behind with his -9 "Repeatedly pimp slap your opponent."


EDIT: Crap, I got so distracted making crappy jokes I forgot what I was originally going to say. So she's holding the veil in this picture, what do you think the chances are of them making equip type cards for Planeswalkers? They have one (literally one) for lands, and obviously there's a bunch for creatures. Maybe the veil'll show up as a Planeswalker equip in the next set?

Ugh! I want this to go down in price so I can get a few.. $30 bucks to drop on 1 copy of a card is not reasonable for something I'll only play in casual.
