Animalist Transformation Sorcery Target creature has base power and toughness 3/3 until end of turn. Before I go on to review your card, I would like to remind you that Iroas, God of Victory is a thing, and Suspended Worker is so much worse in so many ways. A 4 mana 4/4 was what the MSE discord suggested so it's what I went with. Animalist Transformation seems like the core set version of Scale Up, and like most core set commons it's serviceable but kind of boring? 8/10
Anne chuckled slightly, then spoke in a slightly more enthusiastic tone. "Yeah, that is definitely a fair assessment, my friend. I've come to terms with the fact I'm not quite human and I'm not quite animal either." I've been struggling to suppress some sort of primal energy within me for as long as I've known you.

Anne stretches slightly before propping up a test dummy looking vaguely like an insect before getting in a ready stance that half reminded Atlani of Jesaki monks.

Anne finished with her display by launching the dummy up with an uppercut, launching it directly up... onto a roof. Anne dusts her hands off before some thought crosses her mind.

At the beginning of the next end step, sacrifice it. wording seems a bit wrong given Slave of Bolas, but also seems balanced due to Slave of Bolas. Due to you being the wording wizard you are I won't hold the wording weirdness against you, so 9/10.
Caustic Cavalry is hard to judge as it doesn't really have any real analogue. I think it's fine and a really creative use of -1/-1 counters to essentially give it Bushido 1. 9/10
Ancient Gatekeeper looks like it might be too much of a wall for 4 mana with wither, even with two colors. Wither is the big issue here, making up for a lack of power by making everything permanent. 6/10
When Zero goes after the beast, it responds by slashing at her with waves and waves of limbs, one set grabbing onto the blade and attempting to twist it into scrap. The clicks of chitin on steel ring out as the beast grabs at Zero and attempts to slam her into the earth in a frenzied rage.
In the meantime..."Is that who I think it is, and do I need to be worried about her?"
Bea stops for a moment before yelling back over the sounds of battle "Yes and probably! We have no idea what happened but she might be too upset to actually know what she's doing!" Bea paused again.

2/1 Sure “Nothing she’ll be terribly fond of.” Atlani drew her bow, and concentrated for a moment. The arrowhead began to glow, and she fired. As the arrow flew toward Anne, it began to shake, spark, and split apart, small streaks of lightning frantically jumping between the shards. Two thirds of the way to the target, the small bolts converged into a larger bolt that went straight toward the beast. Such a bolt would kill a smaller creature instantly, but Anne’s current size meant it was a mediocre attack at best. Something that would hurt, something she would notice, but nothing that wouldn’t heal with rest and time. The remaining shards of arrow bounced harmlessly off of Anne’s carapace, falling into the water. As the arrow flew, Atlani began riding slowly towards the siblings. “She’ll be fine. And hopefully, she’ll look over here, see that all of you are alright, stop being a giant monster, and we can all go home safe.”

Formic Reclaimer - 9/10
Hey, it's that one common from NEO just more expensive and with more oomph. This seems about right rate-wise as bombard+, so 9/10
Coming in Hot is a neat flicker, though it seems overpriced. Maybe I'm underestimating damage. 7/10As Zero rushes towards the monster, it gears up so slam down on her and her blade yet again.. before the monster was struck by lightning. The beast turned to see where the attack came from, only to see familiar faces in the distance...With a snap! where the monster once stood now stood Anne once more, out of the weird funk she had been trapped in for the last few minutes. Before she has time to ask what she was thinking, What the hell happened?!, she heard Zero rushing towards her. Grabbing her shield and spear, Anne turned and parried the electric strike before responding with a nonlethal slap from her spear.
Meanwhile...
"We got to her!" Bea and her siblings leaped at Atlani for a hug before the largest of them backed out. "We may not be out of the nest just yet." The ant-person crouched over slightly and looked into Atlani's eyes. "Do you mind giving us a hand?"

As the ant grabs the blade, a rift steals it away and another rift opens to rearm Zero. She blitzes left and right to dodge the net of limbs, halting whatever progress she is making towards it.
Electricity runs along the sword blade, heating up the incoming sword strikes. Instant Exile target permanent you control, then return it to the battlefield under its owner's control. If it's a creature, it deals damage equal to its power to any target.
Formic Reclaimer - 9/10
Meanwhile...
"We got to her!" Bea and her siblings leaped at Atlani for a hug before the largest of them backed out. "We may not be out of the nest just yet." The ant-person crouched over slightly and looked into Atlani's eyes. "Do you mind giving us a hand?"
Anne, Reunited Legendary Planeswalker - Anne Planeswalker spells cost less to cast. : Create a 1/1 red and white Human Insect creature token. If you control three or more planeswalkers, make two of those tokens instead. : Search your library for a planeswalker card with mana value X or less, put it in your hand, then shuffle. : You get an emblem with "You may cast planeswalker spells without paying their mana costs." and "Whenever you activate a loyalty ability, copy it.

"What treachery is this?" she growls. Lead Astray  Instant Target creature attacks target player or planeswalker during that creature's controller's next combat.

Anne, Reunited - first two abilities are okay but second two feel pretty low impact. 7/10

As Zero rushes towards the monster, it gears up so slam down on her and her blade yet again.. before the monster was struck by lightning. The beast turned to see where the attack came from, only to see familiar faces in the distance...With a snap! where the monster once stood now stood Anne once more, out of the weird funk she had been trapped in for the last few minutes. Before she has time to ask what she was thinking, What the hell happened?!, she heard Zero rushing towards her. Grabbing her shield and spear, Anne turned and parried the electric strike before responding with a nonlethal slap from her spear.

No other planeswalker is this blatantly superfriends, and imo, none should be. There are plenty of planeswalkers that play into superfriends/have blatantly superfriends abilities (Chandra, Acolyte of Flame, Sarkhan the Masterless, Nicol Bolas, Dragon God, and that one Teferi commander) but they all do things that provide value outside of just being superfriends, and none of them do every superfriends effect. The thing here is that either 1. Anne, Reunited is useless because all she does outside of planeswalker tribal is make a 1/1 every turn, or 2. your format has enough planeswalkers that no one would run anything other than Anne superfriends or 17 copies of The Elderspell, which makes her difficult from a balance perspective. This uselessness outside of superfriends also makes her underwhelming as a planeswalker and as a mythic. Like, if I got Anne, Reunited in limited, I could only play her if it was War of the Spark limited, and even then I'd have to play RW, which doesn't have the proliferate one would want.

A unnatural-looking woman stiffly approaches the sitting woman, her arm raised in a frozen imitation of a wave. "Greetings, fellow l-l-lifeform! What is your designation-n-n?" Her face morphs into what can be presumed to be a smile, but quickly swaps to what resembles to a look of concern. "Your eyes look odd. Do you have c-c-conjunctivitis?" She asks, her arm stiltedly moving down to her side.

Assisting Anne is... weird. Very weird. The first ability is basically one creature Master Warcraft, which is (probably) fine in RW, but the second... ok, I'll be frank here, it's a break. The only red card with anything close to this effect is Mythos of Vadrok, and even then it's the add-on effect for paying WU. It also seems weirdly weak at the same time, so... 2/10Corroboration looked weirder to me at first than it is. It's just a gods willing with a slightly weaker upside and cycling, which I think balances out. Not really too exciting, but 9/10 because cycling on a weird tool like this is nice. Anne nods before looking back to the robot, recognizing it. "Oh, hey. Sorry about that..." Anne jerks slightly, blinking, before saying, "I never introduced myself, did I?" She extended her hand out as a piece offering. "I'm Anne. Anne Myria. It's nice to meet you."Hoping this goes better than last time.

A pale eye in the sky. Unblinking, unyielding. Covered in tentacles from top to bottom.Virimar's Envoy Creature - Eldrazi Drone Devoid (This card has no color.): Draw a card, then exile a card from your hand. As long as there are five or more cards exiled with Eldrazi you control, Virimar's Envoy gets +2/+0 and has flying. Virimar's brood are a consuming collective, subsisting on knowledge and flesh in equal measure.1/3 is oooooooo. We haven't gotten a looting effect like this on a common with no mana cost in a while, but exiling the card from your hand is an interesting drawback in exchange. And then we have that last ability, which seems like a neat way to build around stuff. 9/10, very good. A girl-turned ant. Bewildered and confused. Staring at the eye from top to bottom.Flashforge Agent Creature - Human Rogue NES CWhen ~ enters the battlefield under your control, you may discard a card. If you do, draw a card. 1/1 |

Atlani seems to have run out of patience with the both of them. She locks eyes with Zero first. "I, for one, am perfectly fine with having avoided a fight with an unknown foe. I was prepared for pirates, not necromancers or ashen fae, though maybe you were, and it is merely a fault of mine."She looks down at Anne from her mount, then to the siblings who's affection she had narrowly escaped just a moment prior, then sighs. A blade will not cut unless sharpened. A thought she keeps to herself, but well expresses her exasperation. She looks back to Zero. "Should we find it agreeable, you and I can continue our attempts to track the pirate and her matron. I, at least, plan to do so either way. The ants... well, there is work to be done here, I'm sure. Repairs and such. Or, some... peaceable alternative. Something to keep them inland." She looks away, almost sheepishly, and catches the creature out of the corner of her eye.

A girl-turned ant. Bewildered and confused. Staring at the eye from top to bottom.Flashforge Agent Creature - Human Rogue NES CWhen ~ enters the battlefield under your control, you may discard a card. If you do, draw a card. 1/1 Anne stares at the eye and the myriad eyes stare back. If she continues to do so, Anne might begin to feel severe nausea, as though something was trying to pull out her brain from her nose. From beyond, a researcher jots down notes, observing Anne's physical and mental symptoms, if she has any. Flashforge Agent: Pretty sure this can have more upside, given we've gotten a 1/1 with flying and scry 2 at one mana. Also, I'm not super sure how this responds to Virimar's Envoy - it neither has particular synergy with it for assistance, nor does it really meaningfully counter it. 5/10

A gleaming blue rift opens nearby the Arena’s resident ant-girl. For a moment, it just sits there, doing nothing except turning as black as her eyes.
Then, it roars.
The tear in space races upward as a knife-like nose shoves through and up. Claws tear through the rift and sink deep into the soil. The ground heaves under the great weight of the creature coming through.
A roaring maw filled with sharp teeth turns towards Anne.
Note: Reinforcements will be on the way for characters that need them Echo of Lost Friendships - sure 8/10 maybe we'll get back to this fight After these messages. |

I love how, assuming you're only casting this solitare-style, you first get a 2/2, then a 3/3, and then a 4/4. Besides, the front is perfectly costed, and so is the back according to Regisaur Alpha. Congrats on an easy 10/10
Anne looked on in horror as the behemoth breached the rift. Her muscles tensed up. She felt her every heartbeat beating through her chest. She felt every one of her hairs stand on their ends. She's never felt this way before, hadn't she?She had. That day, that lab, that plane.... that's when she became... her.
Anne's mind rushed back to her time on Nessythia, which at once seemed like an eternity ago and like it happened yesterday. Instinctually, her pose shifted, and she drew her jagged-edged blade. A familiar voice called from behind the monster, but Anne's brain did not have enough time to process anything but its message."Go!"
"On it!" Anne leaped up towards the beast, cleaving at it with her sword as a gunslinger, seeming to be no older than 20 despite the numerous scars covering his body shoots at the beast with his trusty pistol and a young, ghostly girl waves her hands, causing ethereal tendrils to wrap around the beast's limbs.
As Anne finishes slashing at the beast's face, she kicks off it, rocketing off and unconsciously signals the other two to follow. She closes her eyes as she runs for dear life before finally collapsing in an alley.
------------------------------------------------
Anne opens her eyes to see two people looking down at her. "Oh, she's awake!" the ghostly figure excitedly shouts, before the gunslinger extends a hand down.
"Didn't expect to see you so soon Anne. Alright, I hope?"
Anne gets up... and immediately hugs Roy, with Aki following shortly after. "Ohmygod ohmygod it's actually you!" Anne manages to mutter out through tears. "We gotcha." Aki said as she cradled her taller friend.
--------------------------------------------------
"Why'd you come?" Anne asked as her chest heaved and sagged. This all happened so fast she barely had time to breathe.
"Short or long?" Roy asked, the former noble keeping terse as always.
"Short."
"Your... 'sparktalker''s still intact, correct?"
Anne pulled out the nearly forgotten device from her pocket. "Oh! Was it the threat alarm thing that Aki put on it that brought you two here?"
"Exactly! Came over as soon as we could."
"Just in time too."
Anne looks over and sees some of her siblings peering into the alley. "Hold on, I have to go do something...", confusing Roy but only leading Aki to nod.

: You get an emblem with "You may activate the loyalty abilities of planeswalkers you control twice each turn rather than only once." and "The abilities of planeswalkers you control cost more to activate."
The blade and bullets seem to serve to only make the behemoth angrier and it swipes violently at the young combatants, seeming to have no fear of causing any harm to itself.
The spectral chains wrap around the creature, restraining its already limited forms of attack. It pulls and pulls at the spirit's chains, but they appear to hold as the three reconnect.
But the gaping tear in reality remains. As the three ignore the behemoth, a crackling creature steps forth. Flames spin around the ashen man and limbs sprouting from its back move erratically. Its glowing eyes rest solely on the behemoth as it calmly walks forward and sets a hand upon the ghostly chains. The same empty color of the creature spreads rapidly across the spell.
The chains holding back the behemoth explode into black powder, and it lumbers for the three once more.
The Nessythia Three - the three cost 4 and have 4 abilities smh. defense wise i guess this is making a 2/2 to block? or -3 to kill a bigger ant? neither thing takes care of the big lad himself, which i suppose does match the flavor. on its own, the first three modes are fine, though the -3 could be fine as a bolt, and the -10 is not a very good ult. honestly could see that as like a -7. 7/10
