She has high health and average deck limits. She has good mana gains in her colors, and a small mana bonus to Black.

Her abilities revolve around Equipment supports and synergise with PartyParty members. She can fetch and create both equipment supports and creatures, while at the same time giving her Equipment support ResilientResilient, making them invulnerable to losing Shields from matching. Many of her abilities' effects are temporary, conditional (eg triggered by Landfall or PartyParty, based on abilities only found in the Zendikar Rising set (same), or some combination of those, but they are densely packed and synergistic and potentially powerful.

She destroys gems, but the likelihood of that ability gaining mana from Cascade matches varies with its level and accordingly, the coding for gem creation. Specifically, when the level 60 version clears the board, whether gems are likely to enter the board already matched.

Nahiri, Heir of the Ancients is the second playable Planeswalker in MtGPQ which embodies Nahiri at a point in her life story.
