The defense against Sorin's mind control, as in the game, is not letting him do it. It's essentially his "ultimate" ability, and it takes a pretty inept player to allow a Planeswalker to "ult" like that.Normally I wouldn't even include the mind control spell, but I feel obligated to defend it out of loyalty to the source material. If it wasn't for that power, Sorin wouldn't be a powerful and popular Planeswalker.If you let this pass, I'll give you my word that I won't frustrate you or any other player with it. As I said, I'm not trying to powergame; I'm only trying to stay true to the source material.

Yeah, I'm not even familiar with the source material, but just listening in on this debate the nature of this whole thing sounds sort of similar to Vash's "Angel Arm" ability. I was a little hesitant to include it since I was worried it would make Vash look too powerful, but kept it in since it [i]is[/i] an ability he has, plus he would pretty much never use it. 

Pardon me for criticizing, GM, but there is a difference between godmodding and just having a really powerful character - the difference being that a really powerful character won't necessarily use those powers for godmodding.
