Domri Rade (3/3)
 
One of the more played planeswalkers during his time in Standard, Domri Rade is pretty simple. He's card advantage if you have a lot of creatures (and you should), he's spot removal, and he comes in early enough to be impactful. His ultimate is crazy good, but it's not the some reason to use Domri; it makes more sense to use his -2 liberally to pick off threats.
 
Domri is simple, but he's good in spite of that. He does work best in creature-dense decks, so keep him out of spellslinger-type decks.

James H. Domri Rade
 
Domri is the sort of card that becomes more or less powerful depending on context. That's not a strike against him - you could say much the same thing about Bloodbraid Elf, for example. (She's not broken - she's just a baby.) For example, his fight ability is devastating when you're running Polukranos, but a little less so when you've "only" got something like River Boa. But he has good fundamentals: whatever sorts of creatures are in your environment, drawing more of them is a good way to win games.
