This seems like something that would have been printed in Future Sight. I like it.

That's a lot of abilities for four mana.

My Rayami, first of the fallen approves! I just hope I can afford this card since it looks like it might be pricey from standard.

Not exactly an elegant design imo.

That said I'm fine with it for limited, it's very good but not unbeatable. It's pretty unexciting for commander though some decks might play it.

The other formats are where it could be very good but idc about them.

Why is this legendary? And not a Hydra?

10 years from now this will read "Vigilance, deathtouch, haste, unchumpable, unpreventable, Planeswalker-bully"

I keep reading it and trying to find the downside. There.... doesn't seem to be one? Seems a bit kitchen-sinky, which makes me wonder what the design explanation for it is. I guess three heads = three keywords and three abilities?

That's how they did Trostani Discordant.

I like it...because I like any legends with haste!

It a character/being? from the lore. It picked the candidates who quest to be the high king and high queen.

Its a nod to a creature in Arthurian lore.

Interesting. Is there any lore behind them that explains any of the abilities?

is also gave the Kenriths parents magics enchanted swords to bring someone back form the dead. Can only be used once and for one life. We see it briefly appearing when Algenus is brought back to life (the other sword was used on the twins as babies)
