Yeah, great art, lousy card. But seeing as how it's the first 2cmc Planeswalker, I can't really fault R&D for being overly cautious.
He seems like a pretty cool guy to hang out with, mind you.
Wow, this card is seriously incredibly bad. The other red cards that have been spoiled all sucks too, a Soulbound dragonbreath creature? A 5 mana creature that threaten when it come into play? A XXR sorcery that basically says "i'm overcosted and not even good anyway"?
Red where art thou
EDIT: you know what would have make this card good? A +1 that made both player draw and discard 1 at random. All of its abilities are way too narrow.
The name may have been inspired by a character in Romeo and Juliet, Tybalt.Tibalt puts the EMO in demon and his name makes him sound like the prep school wedgie magnet.
This is the worse walker I have seen. Two turns before I can use his good second ability? Can't defend self? Worthless 1+ ability? Mediocre Ultimate (when compared to other walkers). Also, the art is stupid as hell.
Our next walker.
0/10, no brownie for you.
Piece of shit card. I swear, when it's garbage day at WotC, they make red get all the shit.
How pissed would you be to get that as your Mythic? Bunch of EDH playables, a chase Legacy miracle card, but no, you rip... Tibalt, the Shit-stain. I'd rather open a pack and see Sorrow's Path or Pale Moon; at least there are people out there that collect those. Who'd want this pile of ass?
This must be WotC way of balancing out the many good cards in this set.
WotC's logic is flawed, then.

Print good blue cards, bad red cards?
Red is seriously a joke right now, we haven't seen a decent LD spell since what, the original mirrodin? I still remember the day Maro explained that the 2RG LD spell that was printed in ravnica (Destroy target land or artifact, can't be countered) had to be costed 2RG instead of 1RG because else it'd be too oppressing for the format. This isn't even worth a joke.
That's not the only thing.
Well, they did print Vexing Devil and Thunderous Wrath.
I believe they stopped printing cheap land destruction as it was upsetting players.
Is Tibalt the first ever planeswalker you wouldn't windmill-slam in draft?
YOU'RE GIVING ME A TIME MACHINE IN ORDER TO TREAT MY SLEEP DISORDER.
Not just only windmill-slamming. Instant Windmill-slam-dunkin' right into the trash can.
In response...Hypothek!
Wrath sucks, and Vexing Devil is overrated.
I can see in a draft, last 2 cards, Tibalt or the land?
YES I GOT THE LAND
Looks like you get the Tybalt.
Red getting shafted this bad is like, From the Vault: Legends levels of disappointment.
Well, that's because it is the planeswalker with the lowest casting cost you have ever seen.
I think, it had to be bad. A 2cc planeswalker with good abilities would have been totally overpowered.
The "discard at random" part sucks because it makes it nearly impossible to build around it. Nobody wants "random" effects. You can't build on "random".
Looter land seems pretty cool, though. Probably doesn't have a home anywhere, but I guess we'll see.

Bonfire of the Damned xxr
Sorcery
Mythic Rare
Bonfire of the Damned deals X damage to target player and each creature he or she controls.
Miracle {X}{R} (You may cast this card for its miracle cost when you draw it if it's the first card you drew this turn.)
EoT Brainstorm, Wrath (but only opponent and his Planeswalker).
During the Spoiler for the new red walker (over on the mother ship) Zac mentions there will be a mechanic which puts cards into your opponents hand somehow and that would fuel his 2nd ability.
Without the at random clause, I think it would have been very legacy playable, especially for control decks. You'd just ramp and sculpt hand and occasionally do a lot of damage. Not sure if you could actually steal creatures with it though. Would be pretty damn awesome iif this thing works in sun titan Dredge though.
Theplaneswalker is terribad -- don't worry, the
one will probably be borken. I find myself wanting to casually play this guy with Library of Leng in some kind of 'random discard' deck.
LOL! I think the other drafters at your table would want to have a word with you if you tried that.
I see more than others do because I know where to look.
