Although each of the Duel Decks is built well enough that they should be about equal against each other, it's easy to see which planeswalker is more powerful on their own here. (Hint: It's Vraska)
Vraska's +1 should be moderately useful against Jace's deck, especially since it allows her to survive being hit by a kicked Aether Figment and then follow up with a suicidal -3 the following turn.
Vraska's -3 is probably going to be the single most powerful effect in the entire Duel Deck, allowing her to destroy Jace's largest creatures, his Future Sight, his removal spells like Claustrophobia and Mind Control, and even Jace, Architect of Thought himself.
Vraska's -7 might see some use if a player is having an easier time against Jace, but I'm not certain how effective it'll be. Although Vraska's deck has more than enough creature removal and evasion tricks in it to make the Assassin t... (see all)

I for one like the new are, she has a more alluring Medusa feel to it, also the putrefied humans are a nice touch.

I wondered when we'd see her again. Didn't expect her in a Duel Deck, though. Maybe she'll have a better time sneaking through a less creature-filled U deck than she has before.

Her new art looks pretty awesome, Better than Jace's art anyway.

This new art is strange. She looks like she's made of clay.

If they're going to reprint a relatively unimportant planeswalker like Vraska then let's hope they have plans for some of the other nons out there (Crossing my fingers for Tamiyo)

Vraska doesn't stand out from other planeswalkers in power level, but gorgons all the way, baby.
