[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7761645, member: 6670153"] The equivilant of Elminister, Drizzt, Volo, Farideh, Minsc, Szazz Tam, ect..., is Teysa, Jarad, Feather, Aurelia, Izoni, Emarra, Livonia, Agrus Kos, and so on, not Ajani Goldman's, Chandra Naalar, Dack Feyden, Kaya, Nahari, Karn, Sorin Markov, act... So yeah I'd expect an Elminister card if they were doing a Forgotten Realms MtG deck, but not if they were doing Darksun deck or Dragonlance. There is only a few characters in D&D outside plan escape for whom plane hopping is important. Mordikien, Nezram World walker, and a couple of others. I would not expect to see any of them except Elminister in an FR deck, maybe Nezram. That is it. Still I think they specifically avoided stating Planeswalkers, not even Jace, because I don't think they know how they are going to handle MtG style Planeswalkers in D&D, because it asks too many questions they don't want to answer, it highlights the differences in the MtG and D&D cosmologies. Example, Elminister could Planeshift a whole bunch of people between planes with simple spells without breaking a sweat. Nicol Bolas post mending could not do that no matter how hard he tried. No MtG planeswalkers could. Even the Planar Bridge can't take living matter across it. How do Planeswalkers interact with Sigil? I mean can you imagine Nicol Bolas discovering Sigil, with portals to everywhere his head would explode. Sigilian would look at Nicol Bolas as pretentious country bumpkin. Oh and Ravnica isn't called a Plane in D&D at all, it gets referee to as a world, because Ravnica is just another part of the Material Plane now, another crystal sphere. In MtG it was seen as an actual Plane of its own. Which makes most of the Planeswalkers, world walkers. [/QUOTE]
