Mentor
What's a planeswalker without those who guide them, who teach them what's right and wrong? Today we pay tributes to their mentors, their teachers, to those who are responsible for what our planeswalkers have become!
Main Challenge - Design a legendary creature card portraying a mentor of your chosen planeswalker.
Subchallenge 1 - Your card is rare or mythic.
Subchallenge 2 - Your card has mana value 4 or greater.
Subchallenge 1 - Rare or mythic is pretty much self-explanatory.
Subchallenge 2 - Mana value 4 or greater means no less than 4.
