I realize a lot of people aren't fans of non-entity Commanders, but I think it's an idea with legs, and certainly not unheard of in fantasy, or even history for that matter. And you don't get anywhere if you don't take a few risks.

Multifa, Master Summoner Legendary Creature--Hydra Wizard First strike, vigilance, trample, reach, hexproof When you cast Multifa, Master Summoner, search your library for a planeswalker card with converted mana cost less than or equal to Multifa’s as you cast it, reveal that card, put it into your hand, then shuffle. Multifa enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it. When Multifa enters the battlefield, put a planeswalker card with converted mana cost less than or equal to the number of +1/+1 counters on Multifa from your hand onto the battlefield. Each planeswalker enters the battlefield under your control with an additional loyalty counter on it for each +1/+1 counter on Multifa. Remove any number of +1/+1 counters from Multifa: Search your library for a planeswalker card with converted mana cost equal to the number of +1/+1 counters removed this way, reveal it, put it into your hand, then shuffle. 0/0

Mark, Consortium Consultant Legendary Creature — Human Advisor Deathtouch Whenever a planeswalker you control dies, you draw X cards and lose X life, where X is that Planeswalker’s starting loyalty. ”We got a Code Beta on Innistrad. Send in the crew!” 2/5
Flavor is he deals with Planeswalkers’ bodies if they die so they don’t raise suspicion.

Also, how were symbols meant to work again? You need double colons on each side for each mana symbol
Or you can pick them by clicking on the "Insert Smiley" button above your text field and then choosing "View All Smileys"

Nalla Goldmane Legendary Creature - Cat Cleric Hexproof from black Whenever you cast an enchantment or planeswalker spell, draw a card. 2/3 "Any friend of my Ajani, is a friend of mine."Just a simple idea I had of "what if there was an enchantess for planeswalkers."

Godspeaker Frent - Legendary Creature - Human Shaman Godspeaker Frent deals damage to planeswalkers in the form of loyalty counters. Whenever an opponent activates an ability that isn't a mana ability, Godspeaker Frent deals 1 damage to any target. 2/2 I now have even greater respect for Cajun. That frame took me literally hours to get right. EDIT: Now she doesn't have any two-card infinite combos! Yay!

Whenever a player activated as ability that isn't a mana ability, you may have Godspeaker Frent deal 1 damage to any target. 2/2 I now have even greater respect for Cajun. That frame took me literally hours to get right. Wait, does that first ability mean that it ADDS loyalty counters to planeswalkers instead of removing them?

Yep! I realized when I was drifting off last night that I need to restrict that triggered ability just a bit. Otherwise you've got a turn 2 2-card infinite damage combo with Shuku

Otherwise you've got a turn 2 2-card infinite damage combo with ShukuI thin you mean Shuko, or any Equip card. Or indeed, any card with an activation cost of :. But yeah, you're most definitely right about needing to limit it.

Well, it's been a while since I've done this. Let's get right to it! { Tesagk}Versouth, the Firespeaker Legendary Creature - Human Shaman , Remove a loyalty counter from a planeswalker you control: Versouth, the Firespeaker deals 3 damage to any target. , Pay 4 life: Put a loyalty counter on target planeswalker. 3/3 This is...interesting. It's certainly interesting, I'll give you that. The first ability is fine, but the second... Adding loyalty is more than . It's a good card, but that second ability is a bit of a bend; possible? maybe? in . I might have cut that one and given it haste. { Jartis}Coalescent Reality Legendary Enchantment When Coalescent Reality enters the battlefield, choose a planeswalker type. You may search your graveyard and/or library for any number of planeswalker card with that type and reveal them. Put one onto the battlefield and the rest into your hand. Planeswalkers you control enter the battlefield with an additional loyalty counter for each permanent you control that shares a planeswalker type with it. Coalescent Reality can be your commander. That is a hefty block of text. You are quite certain about no risk, no reward, but I'm afraid that this might be too much risk, not enough reward. Or too much reward for not enough risk? Something along those lines... It's too powerful for not enough cost, there we go. It enters the battlefield and draws you 5+ cards (all of which are planeswalkers), drops one on the field, has Doubling Season tacked on (not quite, I know), and is always castable. Sure, is extremely restrictive, but check out Conflux. It's more and a one shot. Let's take a look at a possible line of play. Turn 5: play this, fetch Aminatou, flicker, fetch Venser, flicker, fetch Elspeth. Turn 6: flicker with Aminatou, fetch Elspeth, make tokens, make more tokens with the other one, flicker with Venser, fetch Karn, etc. This line of play allows you to tutor up two planeswalkers a turn onto the battlefield and who knows how many into your hand. It looks like a cool planeswalker tribal card and many will play it that way, but because it puts them onto the battlefield, in 5 colors, and is hard to interact with, people will break this in half (or at least try to). In terms of flavor...what is it? Why is reality my commander? What does reality coming together actually mean, and why does it care about planeswalkers? If it's an idea made real, why not make it an avatar of that idea and thus a creature? You could argue that it's something to rally around, but then still why does it care about planeswalkers? Mechanically it works, but flavor it is still very lacking. { sdfkjgh}Multifa, Master Summoner Legendary Creature - Hydra Wizard. First strike, hexproof, reach, trample, vigilance When you cast Multifa, Master Summoner, search your library for a planeswalker card with converted mana cost less than or equal to Multifa’s, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library. Multifa enters the battlefield with X +1/+1 counters on it. When Multifa enters the battlefield, put a planeswalker card with converted mana cost less than or equal to the number of +1/+1 counters on Multifa from your hand onto the battlefield. Planeswalkers you control enter the battlefield with an additional loyalty counter on it for each +1/+1 counter on Multifa. Remove any number of +1/+1 counters from Multifa: Search your library for a planeswalker card with converted mana cost equal to the number of +1/+1 counters removed this way, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then shuffle your library. 0/0 ........................................that...that certainly is a mana cost. Yep, that's what that is. What??? Hydra Wizard??? I mean, ok... This certainly fits the criteria of the contest, but this card is way too busy. Top to bottom, almost everything could be changed. If I may... - Multifa, Master Summoner
Legendary Creature - Human Wizard When you cast Multifa, Master Summoner, search your library for a planeswalker card and put it onto the battlefield. Then shuffle your library. When Multifa, Master Summoner enters the battlefield, put a loyalty counter on each planeswalker you control. , : Return Multifa, Master Summoner to its owner's hand. 3/3
I know you were having fun with this, but that amount of text just won't make a good card. In terms of power level it's ok (really pushed but not game-breaking), especially for a Commander product, but too many abilities and too many words. { Flo00}Molea, Ungraving the Gods Legendary Creature - Vampire Wizard First strike When Molea, Ungraving the Gods enters the battlefield, return target planeswalker card from a graveyard to the battlefield under your control. 3/2 Very nice. Clean, simple, and very on-color. I don't think there's ever been a planeswalker reanimation card before, so this is nice. This is balanced enough that I could see it showing up in a Standard set. Part of me wants to add flying or vigilance or something because it looks a little bare for a mythic. { gluestick248}Mark, Consortium Consultant Legendary Creature - Human Advisor Deathtouch Whenever a planeswalker you control dies, you draw X cards and lose X life, where X is that planeswalker’s starting loyalty. "We've got a Code Beta on Innistrad! Send in the crew!"2/5 Pretty good. Not an ability we've seen before, and I'm not totally sure if it would work in the nitty-gritty of the rules (tracking the starting loyalty has some rules baggage), but I like it. What I am less inclined to like is the flavor. How are non-planeswalkers getting from one plane to the next? The Mending prevented that 60 years ago, and the Planar Gate only transports nonliving materials (and, you know, is in the hands of an evil tyrant dragon). If he is from the stories, good for you and I'm an idiot, but otherwise I can't see this working flavor-wise. { pbtenchi}Ulra, Spark Worshipper Legendary Creature - Human Cleric : The controller of target planeswalker may activate its loyalty abilities once this turn as though none of its loyalty abilities have been activated this turn. : Search your library for a planeswalker card and reveal it. Put it into your hand, then shuffle your library. 1/4 Yeah, that's a way to do it. Not too many comments on this one other than how you worded the first ability. The tutor is strong, but the cost is restrictive, so I'd say it gets a pass. { Sanfonier of the Night}Blind Eternities Shapers Legendary Creature - Eldrazi : Search your library for a planeswalker card and reveal it. Put it into your hand, then shuffle your library. : You may put a planeswalker permanent card from your hand onto the battlefield. , : Gain control of target planeswalker. 11/11 Not sure how I feel about this one. It's balanced, sort of, so it could work, but...not a fan of the flavor (or the name). An intelligent Eldrazi that seeks out and controls only planeswalkers? Mmmmm...no. Change the cost and creature type, and maybe it'll be in talks about being a card. Other than the flavor, it’s fine. { HvT}Nalla Goldmane Legendary Creature - Cat Cleric Hexproof from black Whenever you cast an enchantment or planeswalker spell, draw a card. "Any friend of my Ajani is a friend of mine."2/3 Very nice, I like it. Evenly costed and a nice balance of abilities and body, and a fantastic flavor. I'm assuming this is his wife? Otherwise his sister. Very nice. { Lady Mapi}Godspeaker Frent Legendary Creature - Human Shaman Godspeaker Frent deals damage to planeswalkers in the form of loyalty counters. Whenever an opponent activates an ability that isn't a mana ability, Godspeaker Frent deals 1 damage to any target. 2/2 *sits and stares for a while* "Deals damage to planeswalkers in the form of loyalty counters." *rubs bridge of nose* *sighs* Well, there's worse things that could have happened with this card. All I'm reading from that ability is "Godspeaker Frent can't attack planeswalkers." I like the second ability but let me rant a bit about flavor: "godspeaker." From the name I'd have to assume they're from Naya (see Godtracker of Jund and Sacellum Godspeaker), so the colors fit. But what puzzles me is why is someone from Naya, a VERY creature-centric world, caring about planeswalkers? /rant Ok, other than the name (which I suggest you change) and that first ability (which totals up to like a third of the card), it's fine. Cheap, aggressive, gets around blockers, yet not painful enough to use a kill spell on...yet. Good work. { mrlozano}Gorthor, Enslaved God Legendary Creature - Demon Gorthor, Enslaved God can't attack planeswalkers. At the beginning of your upkeep, remove a loyalty counter from each planeswalker, then draw a card for each counter removed this way. 2/2 Oh, you got me. I love this card. The body could be buffed, but those abilities...mmmmh. He's useless most of the time, but when you go up against that one Atraxa player...*grin* Have fun~! Other than that (and it being a KOS for said Atraxa player), not much to say. Good job. Well, everyone, on to judging! There were some...questionable decisions made by many, but in the end three really stood out to me. {4 th Place} mrlozano and Gorthor, Enslaved God! I really like those abilities, but it just didn't do enough to warrant being placed higher. Well done, though. {3 rd Place} Flo00 and Molea, Ungraving the Gods! Going back to my comments, it juuuust barely came out into third. If it did a little more it might have gotten second. {2 nd Place} gluestick248 and Mark, Consortium Consultant! Other than the flavor and questionable rules workings, it's a solid card. Less reliable than most, but it packs some serious card draw in the right deck. {1 st Place} HvT and Nalla Goldmane! I just can't get over how clean this card it. Absolutely squeaky clean, easy to understand, well balanced, and flavorful to boot. I love enchantress decks too, but that actually had no effect on the judging, in case someone screamed "FAVORITISM!!!!!" Good job, well done. So, that wraps that up! Well done everyone, keep at it, and have a good whatever!

Xenozfan2 I would like to file a complaint in the wastebasket: Your reading of the first ability is incredibly uncharitable. It's there so that you can ping your own planeswalkers. To put counters on them. Or you could bulk up another player's 'walker, if you're feeling political. I worded it the way I did because that way you can combo it with other Red goodies like Extra Arms or Arlinn, Embraced by the Moon 's ult. On the name: Naya doesn't have a copyright on the term 'Godspeaker'. And if it did, the fact that it no longer exists would render that copyright null and void .

Lady Mapi : Wow, I completely missed that! It wouldn't have changed the outcome, but I like the card a lot more! I'm fairly straitlaced when it comes to names and mechanics (it's the in me), so it's just me being a stickler. I don't judge names too harshly, since they're the things that can be changed the easiest. Daij_Djan : I keep breaking things, and I don't know what I did or how to fix it. Sorry.
