I still have no idea why their idea of supporting Tibalt was to chuck in a few Unearth creatures, then panic and just lob in some of Odyssey's Catch 22 cards.
Seriously, I run him in a Madness deck. MADNESS. RED AND BLACK LOVE THAT.
It's not even like it'd be hard to throw in some interesting rares. Cragganwick Cremator's a good example of risky power.
He rocks with Madness. He stops being awkward there and just starts bringing the pain, and can slap up any of these silly Vampires.

I split this duel deck with a buddy of mine. He paid 25 bucks for all if it and sold me this for 5$, two intangible virtues and a lingering souls. I have yet to lose the matchup. Which is weird, since Sorin's deck appears far superior. I suppose what I have to say there is that this little guy is a LOT better than he looks on paper. Don't knock em until you play him. You will be pleasantly surprised. I cannot give a card that has single handedly saved the game for me less than 4/5. Extra points for the coat. 4.5/5

Tibalt Enraged (title work in progress) RR (3 loyalty)
+1: Draw a card and lose 2 life.
-3: Target creature gains haste and gets +2/+0 until end of turn. Untap that creature.
-6: Target player cannot gain life for the rest of the game.
@Lifegainwithbite
You ideas are interesting, but the first ability seems more like black to me (draw card + loss of life).
The second one is like RR, a weaker Traitorous Instinct; the cheaper CMC pays off.
Then I find his Ultimate somehow useless. If your opponent(s) doesn't gain life, this planeswalker technically lose one ability. I am looking forward to see if you would create a new and improved abilities.

I say that Tibalt is a perfectly good planeswalker, considering he only costs 2 mana. If his first ability were anything better, people would complain that he's overpowered. Balancing the power of a planeswalker that is so cheap is a delicate thing, and I think that Tibalt pulls it off.

For me Tibalt is a great PW. I think he could be better of course perhaps we could get lucky and get a new version of him soon. As it is though I think he does wonders for some decks. Dredge/Madness/Unearth/Scavenge...just to name a few.
If a deck is very strongly designed as a 1cmc/2cmc build Tibalt becomes Boss. Most other players do not see how effective he is until its to late.

Tibalt is still my favorite planeswalker. Not because he's game altering, overpowered, or flexible, but because he's extremely subtle. Flashback decks love this cheeky bastard, and I ran one with 2x of him just to use the card nobody expects to perform. My only gripe about him is that his minus 4 could have been a minus 3 and still been far from broken.

Whoa - two red mana to prevent the next two or three damage that would be dealt to you? Talk about out-of-colour.
