Planeswalker: Jace Beleren Lorwyn Single
Ever since Magic the Gathering was first released in 1993, the game was meant to represent two clashing wizards doing battle. It wasn't until the release of Lorwyn in late 2007, that this concept became tangible, as the card type, Planeswalker. Planeswalkers are the embodiment of the player, powerful mages that spend their lifetimes traveling the multiverse and learning new spells.
Planeswalkers in Play:
Planeswalkers are played at sorcery speed and come into play with a number of loyalty counters on them, found at the bottom right of the card where a creatures power/toughness is located. Since they are not creatures, they cannot attack or block, instead planeswalkers have abilities that you can activate once per turn. Each ability can either generate or cost loyalty counters. A Planeswalker can be attacked and it takes damage by losing loyalty counters, when the planeswalker reaches zero loyalty counters the card is placed in the graveyard as a state-based effect.
Why you should use this card:
Jace Beleren is one of the cheaper planeswalkers, costing only one colorless and two blue. His first ability lets you draw a card for two loyalty counters. Your opponent draws a card as well... which is hard to get excited about. His third ability is where it get fun, milling your opponent’s deck down. You should be able do this in about four turns, less if you take advantage of Scars of Mirrodin's new mechanic, Proliferate. Oh... Let's not forget that you can't have two planeswalkers with the same subtype in play, so Jace Beleren can handle his big brother, Jace, the Mind Sculptor.

His +2: always screws me over, so I simply use him as a simple card engine with the -1:, since out of all the Planeswalkers' ultimate abilities I think the 20mill is weakest--then again I'm not a big mill player either. 
If you weren't aware.... Mind Sculptor costs 4 CMC. Jace Beleren is 3 CMC. You drop your Jace 3rd turn, and then the decide if they want to play theirs, Jace Beleren is a Sculptor "killer". Helpful for card draw, and with Sun Titan, it's pretty solid. If they wanna eliminate both of the Jace's on the field, they can go for it. 
After they printed Jace the Mind Sculptor or Jace 2.0 this verison became completely useless... Even though they reprinted it in M11 still pretty useless. 
whoa, slow down there jester! anyway jace is good card drawing and the planeswalker most likely to survive in multiplayer, and all the milling decks love him
