Thank you Agent1103 so much for that. Big help with him in play, I've had one argument already about the summoning sickness issue.
My only question is this: if you + him up twice, you've got him at 14. Then you pull off his ultimate and he drops to zero. Planeswalkers with 0 loyalty counters die, so what happens to Karn when the game restarts? Does he go back to 6, or is he dead? That's my biggest issue with Karn here. I mean, unless you + him up three times instead of two, or proliferate one or two more counters, he should be dead, right?

Stupid card. Why the hell did they make his first ability +4?

It makes him almost unkillable even when there is nothing to block for him. If something too strong comes out, he just exiles it. Really stupid.

Planeswalkers should not start at 10 loyalty (after their first ability).

Accelerating into Karn, exiling a Blightsteel from your hand anything from theirs and then restarting the game just seems glorious...

The art is amazing!

His +4 ability is flexible and fun, and the fact that it's +4 is amazing!

His -3 ability is amazing!

The fact that he's colorless is amazing!

His -14 ability is perhaps the most annoying and unfun concept in the history of the game, and it's a quick way to get your playgroup to refuse play whatever deck you put him in.

CMC 7 seems pretty high for a planeswalker.

I just realized something, forgive me if everyone else already knew this and I'm being retarded.

Infect is a damage replacement ability, in that creatures with infect don't actually do any damage to a player, they just get poison counters. To damage a planeswalker, damage must go through the player. But planeswalkers can't get poison counters, and -1/-1 counters wouldn't matter either. Are infect decks incapable of damaging planeswalkers?

Of course the {7} kills him. I knew all along if they made him a colorless planeswalker he'd have to be {7}, otherwise too many decks would be willing to use him. If seeing so many Jace, the Mind Sculptors annoys you, this would be in 75+ % of decks if it was much cheaper.
