What Chandra, Torch of Defiance Does

Chandra, Torch of Defiance is a four-mana planeswalker with several useful modes. She can exile the top card of your library and let you cast it, deal 2 damage to each opponent if you do not cast it, add for mana, deal 4 damage to a creature, or work toward an emblem that deals damage whenever you cast spells.

The card is strongest when your deck can protect a planeswalker and use both card access and extra mana. It may be less effective in creature-heavy metagames where Chandra is attacked down immediately before generating enough value.
