I really really hope we get a new fox lord in addition to a new ninja lord. Don't get me wrong, 8.5 tails is good and all, but after reading the Kamigawa books and seeing how deep-rooted the kitsune are in green as well as white, I always hoped that they'd make a GW legend if they ever touched on the setting again. (I swear, WotC keeps teasing me with things like this, dangling hints of a return to Kamigawa in front of me even though there's very little chance of it actually happening)
Overall I'm pretty psyched for this, I loved the first release and hope that the new decks have cool reprints of hard to find cards as well. I don't think any of my black decks would have Cabal Coffers if it weren't for Planechase. My only concern is how I'm going to work phenomena into eternities map games. Do you flip over another plane afterwards? Hellride to a blank space?

you forget a guy called doran. they can make a full wedge cycle with 4 legends. also i think it's unfair to give some wedges more generals. why URG can have a new general but WBR, for example, no?
Didn't forget him at all. In the grand scheme a BGW legend may be last on the list for a new wedge legend, but there aren't even equal numbers of allied pair legends. Doran is not part of any "full wedge cycle."
PCH and ARC are not COM and do not have to be in such a strict cycle (I wouldn't even mind if the next COM product varied a bit more).
The thing people need to stop doing is assuming that just because there is one wedge legend that all the new deck are wedge focued.Seems like most got so giddy over it that they ignored that wizards just slapped blue on maelstorm wanderer just to make it a wedge,because theirs nothing blue about it at all.
Chaos Reigns-More than likely has maelstorm wanderer in it meaning its a 5-color deck since wanderer has cascade and cascade is in every color.
Night of the Ninja-Definatly UB.If we get a legend for it would definatly be UB to show a ninja with the greatest deceptive skills and the best assasination skills.
Primordial Hunger-Could be G, RG, GB or RBG. Deck doesn't sound white or blue.
Savage Auras-Could have white,red or green in any combo.Maybe blue.Blacks out.

so you don't think maelstrom wanderer is a card aimed for commander? planechase doesn't need new cards imo, just new planes, so the new cards printed there will be aimed for commander
Obviously a new legend has more relevance to COM/EDH, but PCH will absolutely benefit from having new cards. I'm not sure there will be anything so format specific as Command Tower, but new cards geared toward multiplayer will be a boon to all multiplayer formats, not just COM.
The new COM cards are pretty fun when playing ARC in the xbox DotP 2012 game.
uhm you are right decks doesn't sound very wedge
savage auras may be WUR: WU for the auras and R for savage, but it isn't very likely. probably a bant deck
Primoridal Hunger and WBR... the only card i think can make sense is fervent charge lol. probably a jund deck
but i still think making only one wedge legend is stupid
Green can be savage with 10 green-only cards with it in the title. And green loves it some enchantments. Totem Aura was strong in G/W/U, so you could easily have a RG or GW Aura deck and call it Savage Auras as well.

You know.. I hate that this thing doesn't have a name. Hardly ever are Legendary Creatures just a creature with Legendary slapped on it. Hate to use a WoW reference but all "rare" mobs had a name didn't they? They didn't just say "wolf" or "bear" or "spider". I mean I still love the guy and will make him my general, but that kinda loses him points.
I hope they don't keep doing that. Making a legend just because is kinda lame.

Loch Ness Monster doesn't have a name (besides Nessie, which really doesn't count as it's just shorthand) and it's legendary. It's debatable whether bigfoot counts as a single legendary creature or a species... but either way, it's not all that "legendary" sounding for something so rare

It's very likely that it just doesn't have a name. I mean, it's probably the only thing alive you can find in the maelstrom, so... it's the Maelstrom Wanderer. Because nothing else has come in contact with it, and no one knows what it is, or what it's called. That better?

Ah, but if no one knows about it, how do you know the spell to cast it?
Holy crap that creature is AMAZING. I don't know if I want to just throw it in my Animar deck or make it my new general.
I'm very excited about this, I cannot wait! Releasing new cards like this was the best idea Wizards has had in a long time.They get to print so many fun cards that could never be printed in a normal expansion.
I'd throw it in the deck personally. He's an expensive general, but amazing nonetheless.
That and Planeswalkers can go in weird places and survive, in example a maelstrom. It still would be quite dangerous though.
Sorry, but the mental image I have right now is jace appering behind someone pondering their animar deck. "bro, dude. Check it. Went to the maelstrom, there's this guy there. DOUBLE CASCADE. Seriously. ****'s crazy. Anyway, lend me five bucks. Lates"

June 1st still seems so far away, but I am surprised that we haven't heard much more about this product- where are all the teasers? artwork? legendary multicolor ninja mechanics? anything? Bueller?
Regarding the Maelstrom Wanderer, a.k.a. "Dos Equis"- I don't always cascade into Hypergenesis, but when I do...
Why does Jace talk like a skater? - "Brah, was at the Maelstrom skate park yesterday? Scope it- so I drop in, rock to fakie, tail stall, DOUBLE CASCADE! Dude, it was the sickness..."

I swear I first read it as Wingbonger...something tells me that "As Long as Wingbonger is paired with another creature, both creatures have weed." wouldn't be as good. Seems solid for limited.
Here are my personal predictions for the colors of the decks:
-Chaos Reigns - WUBRG
-Night of the Ninja - WUB
-Primordial Hunger - RG (Possibly with B)
-Savage Auras - GWU
I believe Chaos Regins will be a five color deck and include two of the five new Legendary Creatures (since there is only four decks), Maelstrom Wanderer being one of them.
My main reasoning behind the coloring of Night of the Ninja is because Dromar, the Banisher is the only Invasion dragon that hasn't yet been reprinted with a modern card border. His ability could technically allow you to "re-Ninjutsu" your Ninjas next turn.
Primordial Hunger sounds Red/Green to me because those two colors have some of the biggest, nastiest creatures available to Magic.
I choose Blue, Green, and White for Savage Auras mainly because Totem Armor is available exclusively to these colors (See them all here). Blue would also give this deck access to Arcanum Wings.
I'm particularly excited for this set, and I really wish Wizards would give us a couple more previews, because I am really tired of waiting for this set.

WOTC will release one major product before this one, Avacyn Restored. They won't reveal too much about this product until then. Which means you'll have to wait until late May to get new spoilers for Planechase, most probably.

No, and we technically already have a lord for Ninjas in Higure, the Still Wind in the sense that it makes other ninjas unblockable and findable.

Thats pretty unlikely.
Planeswalkers allways had something to do with "story", making wedge ones just for the sake of making them seems to be a pretty bad idea.
However ; they can reprint some ; as they did with Garruk allready.
