Liliana, Master of Death is a black human Planeswalker, released in October 2021 in the second installment of the Puzzle Masters card set.

She has average health and average deck limits. She has good mana gains in Black and Blue, slightly less good in Red, and small minuses in White and Green.

Her abilities revolve around zombie Tokens  and Corrupted  gems, both of which she can make from a unique support Token , and from destroying cards in hand or a creature in play. She also benefits in several ways from casting creatures from the graveyard, and can create a copy of a PMA support which punishes players for hoarding loyalty, which support (The Chain Veil) also comes in her starting deck. She has a Passive Ability, Master of Death, retroactively acquired after the release of Adventures in the Forgotten Realms, which enhances her graveyard recursion by giving mana to creatures with Buried  as they die (in addition to that which Corrupted  gems give them). The Chain Veil can make both players lose life quite rapidly; it is useful both for rushing and for cards that activate when the user loses life.

Liliana, Master of Death is the eighth of many playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Liliana Vess at different points in her life.
