Are Planeswalkers considered spells in MTG?
Yep, Planeswalkers are definitely spells in Magic The Gathering! When you cast a Planeswalker, you're playing it as a spell from your hand, and just like other spells, it can be countered by your opponent. Once it resolves and hits the battlefield, it then becomes a permanent you can use to wreak havoc on your opponent's plans!

Short answer: Yes, they are spells. Long story short, if you can cast it, it's a spell.
Absolutely not the same! People saying Planeswalkers are just spells are simplifying too much. Sure, they're cast as spells, but once they're on the board, they're so much more. Planeswalkers come with abilities that can turn the tide of the game. They're a game-changer, not your average spell.
