I already checked and you better get some color combos. To make things worse, I am considering getting Red/Black/Blue, so...Yeah.

Edit: I was taking a look at the cards...I am ok if you can only cast magic within the colors you have, but when summoning, I think you should be allowed to summon monsters with any color as long as it had at least half the colors you control.

For example: If I am Black / Red, I could summon a Black / Red / Blue, but not a  Black / Blue / Green monster.

>That is horrible and disgusting. It will no doubt set you apart and create fear in your team mates. So of course.

Did I say no mono coloured walkers? I didn't mean to say that! Nooo!
Monocolored is fine. Just not colorless.  No mini-Karns running around.
I don't care about rarity much, really. If the spell is too powerful, I'll block you from having it. Anyway, looking over sheets now.

That's a good idea. You'd get a loyalty penalty but you'd be able to summon them.

Could that loyalty penalty be softened with the set bonus?

Edit: I would also like to know the gap between the passives of more focused planeswalkers and the ones with more colors.

...I don't think so. BUT I think it'll really depend on the individual creature, because color differences give problems when you have very different views from your summoned creature. If I judge that the individual creature would like you I'll soften the penalty quite a bit up.

Alright, thanks for clarifying that, i preferred blue only version.
Also: i hope we won't be restricted to spells only from our chosen set ? I mean set only shows which are easier to cast, right ?

You're only restricted to your first spell from your chosen set, becuse you're not planeswalkers when the RTD starts.
After that, you can learn spells from everywhere.

Pretty much, but Mcclay needs to choose a Lorwyn spell instead of a Core/Stronghold one.

I can't say something quantitative because there's no grid system for the abilities or such. Just look at it this way:
Four-color=Weak Three-color=Medium Two-Color= Strong Monocolor=Very Strong

Anyway, Working on Caellath's prologue introduction.

Yay...I like introductions and prologues. I also like that person called Caellath.
