The Gatewatch is a team of Planeswalkers that was first formed during the Battle for Zendikar. Their goal is to stop interplanar threats (which typically means other Planeswalkers, but can apply to other things such as Eldrazi). They were received some hostility by the Magic: The Gathering fanbase at least in part because they received so much focus, at the expense of seeing what other characters are up to (which Wizards of the Coast has noticed and decided to tone down the focus on the Gatewatch).
Members
- Ajani Goldmane
- Chandra Nalaar is one of the founding members.
- Gideon Jura is a founding member.
- Jace Beleren is another founding member.
- Liliana Vess (probably going to be coerced by Bolas into leaving or being a spy)
- Teferi
Former members and allies
- Kiora
- Nissa Revane is a founding member, but left when Liliana was allowed in.
- Tamiyo
- Vraska started out as an enemy, but after the events on Ixalan she agreed on becoming a manchurian agent for the Gatewatch.
Oaths
This is a cycle of cards that goes spans not only sets, but worlds. Whenever a character joins the Gatewatch, that set gets an Oath of [new member] card. Each oath is a rare legendary enchantment that has 2 abilities. The first one is an ETB and you don't really need a planeswalker for it. The second ability is an ability that interacts favorably with you having a Planeswalker ("have" in this case doesn't necessarily mean "control" in this case, e.g. Oath of Ajani makes walkers cheaper), and does stone cold nothing if you don't have a Planeswalker.
