Just saw this card I think she is spectacular. Lilliana looks like she will play well in multiple decks and will reward good, smart play. She is a must answer 3 drop that will really push through some damage in aggressive builds and can be bonkers in recursion style decks. She is such an amazingly interactive card that she will really force a lot of decision making on both sides of the board, and because she has such an easy casting cost she can literally come down at any point in the game. Throw in a decent butt, lifelink (which black always loves), and a random 2/2 zombie and you have yourself an amazing cube card.
Slow clap for wizards on this one. I just love this card.
Wow, what a fantastic card. I love the flavor and the exploration into the the design space of flip cards. I don't think flipping her will be a problem. Creatures die all the time. I thought the same thing before including Blood Artist. Turns out you don't need a sacrifice effect to make it trigger.
Karla Ortiz hasn't done a lot of cards (hasn't had many sets) but I'm a big fan of her art and think that the Liliana art is her best. Wow.
She got herself another fan in me!
Got a proxy ready to go. I haven't been this excited about a card since... I don't know, its been years.
A guy in my group isn't excited, but don't worry, I'll make sure he suffers for his folly.
Her planeswalker minus is also really good with a lot of these creatures
Synergistic with:
Genesis, Lark, Alesha, Stronghold, Unearth, Recurring Nightmare, Squee, Goblin Nabob, Life from the Loam, Flickerwisp (to flip her from planeswalker to creature)
She feels really great the more I think of her. Lifelink is nice in black and being able to reanimate her will be nice. Making a zombie to protect the PW form is also a nice bonus. I don't really like how DFC cards play, but I will make an exception for her (I do play DFC garruk and Huntmaster as well). Interesting to find out about the other planeswalkers from Origins.

I'd also like to proxy her for my cube tomorrow, and I was wondering if the attachment from the OP prints to the right size. If not, could you provide the image you're using?
On the card itself, it seems so flavorful, with interesting gameplay, and a high powerlevel without being degenerate. Probably my favorite overall card design since... ever?
Very strong with STE.

Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
I primarily play limited, so most of my spoiler season comments view cards through that lens.
These aren't half as sweet as something someone more talented in Photoshop could make, but if you're looking to test, it's better than printing that smaller version.
Dimensions match other officially spoiled cards' standard dimensions (265 pixels width, 370 pixels height.)
I'm going to proxy it out in about 4 or so hours and I'll let you know if it needs to be tweaked.
I printed out the proxies in this post and as expected, they fit inside of the card dimensions perfectly. I'm going to put both pieces of paper in the sleeve and while I won't be able to make this week's weekly draft, I'll ask people how this implementation/card itself plays out.
Slow clap for wizards on this one. I just love this card.
