The Momir Planeswalker format takes Momir Basic and changes in two basic ways. First, your deck will have 12 of each basic land in it, rather than a mix that you choose. Second, your deck will also include a copy of each of the 36 planeswalkers from War of the Spark. | |||

Momir is a sanctioned casual Magic Online and Magic Arena format that is based on the "Momir Vig" Vanguard avatar.
Magic Online
Momir Basic
Momir Basic decks consist of the following:
- exactly 60 basic lands.
- exactly 1 Momir Vig, Simic Visionary Avatar.[1]
The Momir Vig Avatar allows you to start with 24 life, and grants the following ability: 
, Discard a card: Create a token that's a copy of a creature card with converted mana cost X chosen at random. Activate this ability only any time you could cast a sorcery and only once each turn.
While the format may seem trivial or impractically random, there is a surprising depth to the strategy involved.[2] The goal is to find the most interactive creatures, that will help swing the tide in your favor.
Magic Arena
Momir Planeswalker
In May 2019, Magic Arena introduced the Momir Planeswalker variant, as part of the War of the Spark promotion.[3]
The Momir Planeswalker format takes Momir Basic and changes in two basic ways. First, your deck will have 12 of each basic land in it, rather than a mix that you choose. Second, your deck will also include a copy of each of the 36 planeswalkers from War of the Spark.
That means, in addition to the normal Momir discard-a-card-for-a-creature-token gameplay, you’ll also be able to play your planeswalkers as normal.
