She has low health and low deck limits. She has quite good mana gains in Red, and good in Green, with neutral gains in other colors.

Her abilities have an Energize theme, with secondary themes of direct damage and gem destruction. Destroying gems can be a source of Mana with cascade matches.

Chandra, Torch of Defiance, sometimes called C2, is the second of several playable Planeswalkers in MtGPQ which embody Chandra Nalaar at different points in her life.

Story

"Chandra Nalaar is a confident, hotheaded pyromancer who defends freedom at any cost. As compassionate as she is courageous, Chandra is driven by her zeal to fight for what she believes in.
She gets her rebellious nature and fiery spirit from her parents, whom she believes were killed when she was young. She thinks she would have made them proud when she joined the group of Planeswalkers known as the Gatewatch and took an oath to protect and defend the Multiverse. To Chandra, her oath means ensuring that all people on all planes can live free of oppression, something her parents always wanted for those on their home plane of Kaladesh.
When Chandra hears from the Planeswalker Dovin Baan that the safety of the people of Kaladesh is threatened, she springs to action without a second thought. She returns home for the first time since her parents’ deaths. In order to protect the people of Kaladesh, Chandra is willing to face the painful memories of her past."
