I make it short: Now after WAR; is it likely the M20 Walkers get passives ? Like Liliana, Dreadhorde general template.
I understand Coresets are not intended to be too complex.
I just really hope the addition of Passives continues.
Oh another thing: Preview-season for M20 is in a couple weeks right ?
Passive abilities on planeswalkers are not complex, quite the opposite in most cases.
I could see it happen, but there is of course no guarantee. More interested in finding out *which* planeswalkers are in M20.
I hope wotc see it from the same perspective, cuz I really need to see more of it.
Known Walker nr. 1 is Chandra. She's depicted in a big manner on the booster-display.
Let me take a guess d:)
Chandra, Flame sculptor 1RR 3 Loyality
- If a source you control would deal damage, it deals that much damage +1.
+1 Create a 1/1 red Elemental creature token with Haste.
Exile it at the beginning of your next upkeep. Target creature can't block this turn.
-2 Chandra deals 3 damage to any target & 1 damage to you.
-6 You get an Emblem with: Whenever a Player casts an Instant-or Sorcery spell, copy that spell. You may choose new targets for the copy.

That -6 ability effectively stops counterspells from working. I love it.

It's about time for the reserved list to die, for the sake of Vintage and Legacy (And Commander).
No they said the static ability was more for War then what we will see from now on. While possible so are a number of design tools planeswalkers have as well.

Well, actually MaRo stated in his article that introduced the planeswalkers with static abilities that it is now a tool they get to use for new planeswalkers if they so chose or the set design needs it. It is not limited to WAR. It does not mean that every planeswalker going forward is going to have it, but it is something they can use if they feel like it or need to. Thus opening up new design space for planeswalkers.

nope maro confirmed thats not a war of the spark exclusive
static abilities is a new tool for walkers and not all will get a static abiltiy but we will see it
Yeah thats why I said "While possible so are a number of design tools planeswalkers have as well."
We could see walkers with static abilities, we could also see hybrid walkers, 5 color walkers, walkers with no "+", walkers with no "-", Walkers with X costs, ect ect War just used that design space it didn't mean that was the normal or something we should except anymore then the number of things a walker can do from the norm.
On topic of core set walkers I hope have a few other characters for the core set besides the typical 5. While Chandra is pretty much in, I hope Wanderer, Davrial or Kasmina feature to give us more on lore (Or the Kenriths but Chandra makes that unlikely unless they share a card). And cause we don't have many Nissa will most likely be the green walker.

Now come on ! Please not another Nissa . . . i know wotc already hates it too to inevitably put her in every set. They really need to do somethang bout the green Planeswalker-problem.
Why not requested Garruk again ? I heard Planeswalkers arent his prey anymore. So should be enough to be monogreen again.
Vivien ofc is still very possible

Of the three primarily green planeswalkers we have, I like Nissa the most. Although, I will admit, Vivien channeling Steve Irwin is pretty funny.
The walkers in core 2020 will depend on if they try to tell a story or not. Core 2019 was focused on Bolas so the walkers in it were connected to him somehow (pre-angry Ajani, pre-corrupted Tezz, etc). If there is no story, then I expect them to flesh out a character or two from war. Davrial would make sense for the mono-black walker as Lili is on the run (though not out of the question). Teyo or the Wanderer would be interesting for mono-white. Green will be either Nissa or Vivian, with Chandra confirmed in red. Blue will likely be another Jace, but I would much rather see a mono-blue Narset or Kasima in that slot.
Or they could give us brand new walkers in a slot or two. We will see.
