Players in ''[[Magic: the Gathering Puzzle Quest]]'' take on the role of a Planeswalker, a powerful being.  Planeswalkers have diverse characteristics and motivations.  Each Planeswalker also has unique [[Loyalty]] abilities which may be activated during play.

==Characteristics==
Each Planeswalker has an affinity to a color, in some cases two or even three colors. A Planeswalker's deck may generally contain only cards including an affinity color, or colorless cards. The upper limits on the number of Creature, Spell, and Support cards in the deck are also Planeswalker-specific.
+
Each Planeswalker has an affinity to one [[color]], or two or even three colors, or every color (e.g. [[Karn, Scion of Urza]]). Every Planeswalker can use any colorless card, but any colored Planeswalker must use colored cards matching one of their affinities. The upper limits on the number of Creature, Spell, and [[Support]] cards in the deck are also specific to each Planeswalker.
  
Planeswalkers begin at level 1. Planeswalker levels may be increased by spending Runes ({{Runes}}), to a maximum of level 60. Higher level Planeswalkers are more powerful. Generally, the more colors a Planeswalker has affinity with, the more expensive they are to purchase and level up.

Planeswalkers begin at level 1; their [[level]]s may be increased by spending [[Resources#Mana Runes|Mana Runes]] ({{Runes}}), to a maximum of level 60, gaining hit points and more powerful [[:Category:Planeswalker abilities|abilities]]. To level to 60: Single colors cost 79,920 Runes. Dual colors cost 160,720. Colorless and tri-colors cost 323,750.

=== Mana bonuses===
 +
Planeswalkers released after [[Ixalan]] follow simple rules for their mana bonuses:
 +
#All three-color Planeswalkers' mana bonuses add up to seven.
 +
#All two-color Planeswalkers' mana bonuses add up to eight.
 +
#All mono-color Planeswalkers' mana bonuses add up to nine.
 +
[[Origins]], [[Battle for Zendikar]], and [[Oath of the Gatewatch]] Planeswalkers all have lower mana bonuses than this, as do many others before the [[Ixalan]] set. [[Puzzle Masters 2]] in [https://forums.d3go.com/discussion/90561/release-notes-6-7-0#latest Release 6.7.0] broke the Mana bonus rules with all three of its Planeswalkers, but the following set, [[Bloomburrow]], did not. Unusual mana gain is part of the design of colorless walkers, and there is no easy rule to define their bonuses. There are clear benefits to playing Planeswalkers with high spike bonuses with mana conversion, and when playing without mana conversion, to use Planeswalkers with a balanced spread of bonuses. Some Planeswalkers have abilities that benefit their mana bonuses; notably [[Karn, Scion of Urza]], [[Sarkhan Unbroken]], [[Tamiyo, Field Researcher]] , and [[Ugin, the Spirit Dragon]].

== Abilities ==
 +
Planeswalker are categorized according to their abilities as well as color; category pages thus provide a list of Planeswalkers with a given ability. The main list can be found at the [[:Category:Planeswalker abilities|Planeswalker Abilities]] category.

 +
== History==
 +
Hibernum, the original developers of MtGPQ, made a complex system for Planeswalkers, of not only ascending power, but ascending ability costs. All Planeswalkers had abilities straight out of the gate, at level 1. Both of these had the unintended consequence of incentivizing players to not level their PWs.
 +
 
 +
Oktagon, from their first [[set]] of [[Ixalan]], made a uniform system for PW leveling. Since then, all Planeswalkers released obtain their abilities when the units digit of their level is 6 or zero : 6, 10, 16, 20, 26, 30, etc. Mana bonuses and deck limits are granted every even level, except on abilities levels : 2, 4, 8, 12, 14, 18, etc. And an amount of HP is added every odd level, or Planeswalker Regeneration : 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 etc. With more recent Planeswalkers, the HP added is lower at low levels, presumably as an additional incentive to level up.

Planeswalkers

Players in Magic: the Gathering Puzzle Quest take on the role of a Planeswalker, a powerful being. Planeswalkers have diverse characteristics and motivations. Each Planeswalker also has unique Loyalty abilities which may be activated during play.

Characteristics

Each Planeswalker has an affinity to one color, or two or even three colors, or every color (e.g. Karn, Scion of Urza). Every Planeswalker can use any colorless card, but any colored Planeswalker must use colored cards matching one of their affinities. The upper limits on the number of Creature, Spell, and Support cards in the deck are also specific to each Planeswalker.

Planeswalkers begin at level 1; their levels may be increased by spending Mana Runes (Mana Runes), to a maximum of level 60, gaining hit points and more powerful abilities. To level to 60: Single colors cost 79,920 Runes. Dual colors cost 160,720. Colorless and tri-colors cost 323,750.

Mana bonuses

Planeswalkers released after Ixalan follow simple rules for their mana bonuses:

  1. All three-color Planeswalkers' mana bonuses add up to seven.
  2. All two-color Planeswalkers' mana bonuses add up to eight.
  3. All mono-color Planeswalkers' mana bonuses add up to nine.

Origins, Battle for Zendikar, and Oath of the Gatewatch Planeswalkers all have lower mana bonuses than this, as do many others before the Ixalan set. Puzzle Masters 2 in Release 6.7.0 broke the Mana bonus rules with all three of its Planeswalkers, but the following set, Bloomburrow, did not. Unusual mana gain is part of the design of colorless walkers, and there is no easy rule to define their bonuses. There are clear benefits to playing Planeswalkers with high spike bonuses with mana conversion, and when playing without mana conversion, to use Planeswalkers with a balanced spread of bonuses. Some Planeswalkers have abilities that benefit their mana bonuses; notably Karn, Scion of Urza, Sarkhan Unbroken, Tamiyo, Field Researcher , and Ugin, the Spirit Dragon.

Abilities

Planeswalker are categorized according to their abilities as well as color; category pages thus provide a list of Planeswalkers with a given ability. The main list can be found at the Planeswalker Abilities category.

History

Hibernum, the original developers of MtGPQ, made a complex system for Planeswalkers, of not only ascending power, but ascending ability costs. All Planeswalkers had abilities straight out of the gate, at level 1. Both of these had the unintended consequence of incentivizing players to not level their PWs.

Oktagon, from their first set of Ixalan, made a uniform system for PW leveling. Since then, all Planeswalkers released obtain their abilities when the units digit of their level is 6 or zero : 6, 10, 16, 20, 26, 30, etc. Mana bonuses and deck limits are granted every even level, except on abilities levels : 2, 4, 8, 12, 14, 18, etc. And an amount of HP is added every odd level, or Planeswalker Regeneration : 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 etc. With more recent Planeswalkers, the HP added is lower at low levels, presumably as an additional incentive to level up.

List of Planeswalkers

A summary of each Planeswalker is below. The listed mana bonuses, deck limits and health are given for planeswalkers at their maximum level.
