Vraska, Golgari Queen is a black and green gorgon Planeswalker, introduced in November 2018 along with the Guilds of Ravnica card set.
She has average health, and deck limits with an unbalanced spread, focusing on Creatures. She has good mana gains in Black and Green and others neutral.
Her abilities have minor themes around life levels and support reinforcements, including gaining life and spending a reinforcement for minor card draw and mana, and creating an indestructible support Token which continues to Reinforce and cause the opponent to lose life according to its size. She can also permanently degrade enemy creatures or supports.
Vraska is arguably the Planeswalker most impacted by Oktagon scrupulously separating damage and life loss. Used to be, the requirement to have a creature on board and for the opponent to have lost life were in most cases the same thing - now the player must build Lose Life cards into their deck to make her ultimate ability function at all.
Vraska, Golgari Queen, sometimes called V2, is the second of two playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Vraska at different points in her life.
