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 TokensToken and CorruptedCorrupt gems, both of which she can make from a unique support TokenToken, 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 BuriedBuried as they die (in addition to that which CorruptedCorrupt 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.

Story

Many fear the cold and cringing clutches of death. Liliana is no different—she knows how powerful and frightening death can be, and she uses it. As a weapon, as a tool, as a means to an end. Liliana will not be surrendered by death: she'll master it.
