+1: Look at the top four cards of your library. You may reveal an Equipment card from among them and put it into your hand. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.
-3: Nahiri, Sword Adept deals X damage divided as you choose among any number of target creatures and/or planeswalkers, where X is the number of Equipment you control.
-7: Create X colorless Equipment artifact tokens named Stoneforged Sword with "Equipped creature gets +2/+1" and equip 2, where X is the number of lands you control. You get an emblem with "1: Target Equipment you control becomes a 2/1 artifact creature with flying and haste that's no longer an Equipment until end of turn."
I like the design, but I think that the -7 is too busted. It's nearly always an instant kill and you reach it in 2 rounds after casting Nahiri, directly if you ccontrol Doubling Season or the like. I would prefer an ultimate that has either another emblem or one that keeps the emblem but "only" creates one pretty good equipment.
The emblem in that ability is pretty weird? As a one-shot effect it might be cool though:
Create X colorless Equipment artifact tokens named Stoneforged Sword with "Equipped creature gets +2/+1" and equip 2, where X is the number of lands you control. You may tap any number of untapped Equipment you control. For each Equipment tapped this way, Nahiri deals 3 damage to target creature or player.

You probably already realize this, but the idea with the ultimate and the -3 is to represent Nahiri's abilities to remote control the swords she makes.
I changed the ultimate emblem to be an animation ability instead, but the swords in this case can only hit players and planeswalkers, so I don't know if that's appropriate or not.

I think that I like this new emblem more. It might be *slightly* less flavorful, but it isn't as busted as before and still brings the general idea across.
