I like this the most out of the 3 planeswalkers,
I dont like sorin,
( I was so excited to hear another black planeswalker coming out but when i saw him i was like, meh)
nissa should have been brought out in a dd separate from a block in like a goblin vs elf dd, c'mon, an elf planeswalker. ffs mtg, but then again i think it had to be done,
I never liked the first chandra, and i didn't think i would like this one, but when i saw it, i was really impressed 4.5/5
I dont normally like playing burn or against burn, but this card looks like fun

THIS IS A GREAT CARD!
Anyone who has ever played a red deck knows that you pretty much have to be able to win with the first 10 cards or in the first 3 turns because you will probably stall out. Ablaze makes it possible for a more controlling game with a burn deck allowing you to replenish your hand and adds so many possibilities for combos such as in a discard deck with megrim or even pyromancer ascension just to name some obvious ones.
I am planing on using her in a G/R deck because she rounds out both colors perfectly adding card drawing abilities and direct damage for removal and maybe just that final little slap in the face to finish someone off.

I run her in my mega burn deck but she sometimes falls short against Koth, seeing as he can come out earlier. his emblem can be used to keep chandra down if need be.
I use most of the burn cards for creature control while Chandra is getting ready. Dumping mana inefficient cards like Lava Axe only to bring them back later for free is pretty cool though. Toss a Reverberate into the mix and its a much shorter game.

My dream is to see this card reprinted at 2RRR and Bituminous Blast at 3RR.

You know what's depressing? She definitely has the most interesting abilities of any red planeswalker, but that 6 cmc just flat-out destroys her for even most casual play.

Insane and underrated. Quite easily played in a deck that runs Seething Songs and Desperate Rituals on turn 3. Paired with a Red Sun's Zenith type card, use the ultimate, bringing back all the mana giving cards for free! Chandra's Phoenix is my favorite card to discard with her first ability, as it comes right back to your hand. Red seems to run out of hand fairly quickly, making her second ability a real treat, especially when your opponent has a near full hand.
Overall, in the right deck, Ablaze is the best Chandra out there.

I am pretty sure that if you combine the last ability with the Djinn Illuminatus's ability you can do infinate damage to everyone you are playing with.
