Waha! At last there is content on dailymagic which matters to me again.
Disclaimer: I am opinionated and ambivalent. Expect me to contradict myself. But don't you dare think you can predict me. :)
Good job undoing your previous cockup, Wizards. Please continue until you no longer suck at all.

You're making me wait how long? :D What am I meant to do on the weekend now that I'm going to be spending all of it in anticipation? Curses!

my question is this: assuming you are not doing the shared planar deck variant, which means there's just one planar card face up at any time, what happens insofar as which plane everyone is on? "At any given time, exactly one plane card will be face up." in the regular version, doesn't everyone have their own planar card face up at once? or not? thanks

Even if each player has a planar deck, there's still just one face-up plane card. The first face-up card belongs to the player who has the first turn. Afterwards, if a player rolls the planeswalker symbol, that player turns a plane card face-up and the previous planes card is turn face-dpwn (and put on the bottom of its owner's planar deck).
In short, planeswalking means that everyone planeswalks. You never have different players in different planes.

The PDF seems to be broken.
Also, I'm impressed that no one in this thread has said "plainswalk" yet. Let's start a pool; I say around #15.

This looks like an advance on the Legends idea of "Enchant World" that died out for lack of being interesting.
So I take it this was created back in Time Spiral block but like they mentioned earlier they didn't get Planeswalkers around until Lorwyn so it didn't quite make sense. (they have a Planar roll and a Chaos roll... Hummm) Or they just stole the "Dungeons" idea from Munchkin!
This looks like a lot of fun to play (last week was Johnny week!) perhaps we'll see something for the FNM circuit (and special promo planes!) because that would be really cool.

One is face up and it counts for everybody. When you "planeswalk" the card goes to it's owner's deck and you flip one up from your deck.
I would agree from what the article said that it seems that each player would "walk" to the new effect at the beginning of each of their turns putting the effect on the stack at the end of the end step of the flipping player's turn.

Exactly what I was hoping this was. Very, very cool idea.
And mad props to WotC for giving multiplayer groups something cool like this to play with. I suspect my playgroup is going to be all over this like a rash.
Looking forward to seeing what's in the 60-card decks, also!
