+1 Greatly protects herself and dares anything to come at her while building counters.
-3 Deal with any threat, except if that threat is a land.
-7 One of the most hilarious ultimate's I have seen on a planeswalker.
I would play her in a control deck, and spam her +1 building a ton of counters. I would not ult unless I could duress first, and be given insurance that it would be a real threat to win the game. Basically I would use her as a nonland vindicate on a stick, and very conservative to spend her loyalty.
I foresee her price staying up there for a while, crossing my fingers that it gos down for some reason so I can play with her.
Fantastic art, creative planeswalker, 5/5

She's pretty good, I find that the assassin tokens appear rather late in the game to make a successful attack though, they just tend to get the attention of the other player who has to address them while other things are attacking. Maybe if the Korozda Guildmage or similar could give intimidate it could be quite spicy.
Best to focus on the abilities you are most likely to use in game, she comes in at a robust 5 which makes her strong among current planeswalkers and deters attackers by effectively having deathtouch while her second ability can remove almost anything, creatures and opposing planeswalkers alike.

Am I the only one wondering why this is green/black when all of her abilities are black flavoured? Could of been mono-black easy. Anyway she is ok, people will never be using her ultimate as with mostly all planeswalkers as a win con because its just kinda silly. Everyone is looking at that awseome -3 and rightfully so 4/5

With Doubling Season out, she comes in with 10 loyalty counters and puts out 6 tokens with 3 loyalty counters left to spare. Her ultimate becomes a "game over" event if it goes off and you can't remove the tokens. I'm not sure it's in the game's best interset for ultimates to be game ending given how easy it is to set them up, especially when people drop planeswalkers so early or use others mechanics to increase the counters (less common). Planeswalkers fit into two categories in this regard then: those that are game changing (their abilities assist you in winning the game), and those that are game ending (their abilities enable you to win the game or make it nigh-impossible for your opponent to win). The planeswalkers in the latter category, while not always the most often used or the most expensive, are the most likely to affect how others perceive you (if you care about that).

She can definitely kill Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker,... (see all)

What I read when I play against her is this:
+1: What do I care, I can give up those weenies and get a token from Thragtusk.
-3:She's weakened! Kill her now!
-8: In Standard currently: Flames of the Firebrand, Electrickery, Mizzium Mortars, Cyclonic Rift, Aggravate and
a whole lot more. Most of those are terrible cards, but still, YOU CAN BLOCK!! Unless they make them
hexproof, unblockable, indestructible,they're gonna die to a whole lot of stuff. This is why Vraska is terrible.

Overrated, overcosted, underflavored, narrow.
Still a planeswalker.
4/5.

Thank God this thing isn't blue. I can just imagine what an Artful Dodge could do to someone. Also, a Plansewalker with Deathtouch? That's just mean.

Vraska vs Nicol bolas, Planeswalker. One that hits the board after shall be victorious.
