I didn't think I would ever say this, but I think she is in the running for one of the top 5 planeswalkers ever. If it weren't for that awkward second ability, it would be a definite yes. She is well costed, evasive, and she hits your opponent like a truck when she goes ultimate. Like I said though, her second ability is meh. I wouldn't want to use it immediately because it would leave her loyalty low enough to kill with pretty much anything and I wouldn't want to plus her a couple times and then use it because her -5 is so amazing. If it had allowed for draw 2 or something similar, it would have been ok.

Other than her emblem being completely trumped by an active Elspeth, Sun's Champion, I really like her. She's Explore on a stick and combos on curve with Courser of Kruphix. Should be a big deal in Standard post-rotation since Courser is now proven pudding.
And yeah, I had a game where I ultimated -- and then my opponent cast an Elspeth. And I was sad because I should have just downticked to draw an extra card.
