+1: Draw a card. You may play an additional land this turn.
-2: Target creature loses all abilities and becomes 0/1 until end of turn.
-7: You get an emblem with "At the beginning of your end step, put a 9/9 blue Kraken creature token onto the battlefield."

Boom. Perfect.
Unconditional card advantage as +1 ability? At 3 mana? No, just no. Card advantage is normally a minus ability while the +1 provides utility or produces tokens at a higher CC. Unconditional draw on a Walker at a cheap mana cost is stupid: See: JMS

I'm more interested what the obviously Legacy-playable/format-changing card is that Ken Nagle has in store for us this time.
