For Domri Rade when he gets 4 counters on him may I essentially -7 from him and get his emblem?  Or does the emblem go away if he dies?

the Emblem remains, no matter what happens to Domri

in fact short of restarting the game nothing can get rid of the Emblem

Yes, but only at sorcery timing as it is a loyalty ability. Abilities on the satck are independent of their source. Once activated, the ability will resolve no matter what happens to Domri, and it will give you the emblem, which is also not in the slightest bound to the planeswalker.

If you see something that needs VCL attention, please use this thread (MTGO) or this thread (paper) to make a request and a VCL will look at it as soon as possible.  CoC violations should be reported to Customer Service using the "report post" button.

note: Domri will need 7 loyalty counters (Domri enters with 3 loyalty counters and you'd need an additional 4 more)

I'd like to make sure 2goth4U's message gets through:

606.5. A loyalty ability with a negative loyalty cost can’t be activated unless the permanent has at least that many loyalty counters on it.



But perhaps the OP meant four additional counters on Domri...

Some people try to put counters on their Planeswalkers to show how much loyalty they have gained since they ETB (i.e. they have that number plus their printed loyalty). This is wrong, but people dont always realise this for themselves (although how they show loyalty lower than the starting number is a mystery to me...).

That makes no sense to me.

If they spelled the ability out on the card in full then it would not be allowed in a mono-black Commander deck, but because they used a keyword to save space it is allowed?

Yup, just like you can have Birds of paradise in a mono green deck but not Noble Hierarch . YAY COLOR IDENTITY

I love this description. Like the cows are sponges filled with milk. I can see it all Nick Parks claymation-style with the cow's eyes bugging out momentarily as a giant farmer squeezes it like a squeaky dog toy, and milk shoots out of it.
