I would like to see where they could go with them. Different versions of the five we have would be cool too (since you can change their subtype, say like Garruk can be Planeswalker- Savage Savant or something like that)
Some of you may have been in shock since we invaded Canada and Mexico, but fear not, it was for a good cause. Now that we conrol North America, we produce an extra 5 armies a turn.^_^

How can you change their type? There isn't a card that says "change the type of target planeswalker". Even if you made it into a creature, it still has the planeswalker type...cards that affect creature types wouldn't affect planeswalker types. They would need to make a special card to do that. I don't think they will.
As for making alternate versions of existing planeswalkers, I would expect to see that in Shadowfall. Maybe they have alternate allignment planeswalkers.
I don't see a problem with more planeswalkers. Since they got their own section of the rules, it would be a shame not to make more (although there are some cards that are unique and have rules just for that card...Mindslaver).
I am going with the 5 per set...but only for this block. After that, they should be used sparingly.

I agree with that bob. Planeswalkers are interesting but they should be " hard to get " in future sets. I'd personally like to see some narrow focused Planeswalker variants that are theme specific.
I'm definitely for more, but I think it should be a gradual thing. I'm thinking somewhere along the lines of only having between 5 - 10 in Standard at one time. Any more than that, in my opinion, would be overdoing it. It's a new card type, and I know WotC's going to want to promote it, but I think it'll be too easy to overdo it. I would, however, like to see future sets where at least one of the Planeswalkers released in that set are actually from the plane the set takes place on.

Considering how we have 2 mini blocks this time around, I would imagine shadowmoor contains the alternate versions of the existing Planeswalkers. Thus making the name rule relevant and helping the mirror aspect of the other mini block.
