I had actually put a preliminary version of this yesterday after reading about how reveals would start next week. Thanks, and I'll let you be first Name and Number crunch on the new site
EDIT: For speculation, who do you all think the other walkers will be.
White - unsure, hopefully someone new, though since it will be exploring Chandra's story they may use it as a last chance to print a Gideon card
Blue - Hopefully new, though will likely be Jace
Black - Liliana, could be someone else
Green - Almost assuredly Nissa, especially given the element focus of two of the Chandra cards
God... this will be the last number crunch on MTG Salvation. Let's go with a bang!
On the Planeswalker front I would say Nissa for green is a given. The question is if they introduce new people for the Netflix series. On mono black I can see Davriel and for white Kashmina or Teyo. I mean they could flesh out the newcommers a bit.
White- Teyo? I mean he’s close to the gatewatch in a way. To me he seemed like a younger and smaller version of Gideon. I can see him being the new main white colored Planeswalker and was surprised he wasn’t a rare, especially since he had a POV in the novel.
Blue- I can see Jace because well he’s Jace and pretty much wizards poster boy! Although I can see Kasmina. I don’t have a source (or remember one) but I thought Maro said or someone else in wizards that they were hoping to include Kasmina a bit more soon so I can see her reintroduced here.
Red- Chandra, Chandra, and Chandra!
Black- hmmm. I’d say too soon to really bring Lilana. That said we almost always see Lilana in the coresets. I wanna guess we will see Sorin or Ob Nixilous. Sorin is usually involved in stories a lot and well Ob Nixilous ran off elsewhere so I can see him. Just a guess though this by no means means we see Ob Nix soon.
Green- Given Chandra and Nissa are lovers! Nissa!
3 other “food for thoughts”:
1. White could be Ajani. I can see him trying to help Chandra out with coping. He is a mentor!
2. Bit of a stretch hence I didn’t mention it. Dovin or Tezzeret. can be monoblue. I mean they are arch enemies of Chandra, especially after Kalendash!
3. Even more of a stretch than last point, Wouldn’t a mono black Tibalt be interesting. I really wanna say that with the comics that Tibalt May show up but that would mean he’s either monoblack, mono red and we get two red characters, or multicolored which is doable considering what we saw with Bolas last time!
I assume white would be Gideon or Ajani. If it is themed around the story of Chandra than both make a lot of sense. Gideon and Chandra were good friends and had some adventures together with the Gatewatch. And we saw in the comics that Ajani was with Chandra in the end. I don't think that they can print another red Planeswalker so Tibalt seems unlikely. Even as Rakdos Planeswalker and he doesn't seems to be mono black. Ob Nixilis or Liliana are more likely. For Green, I don't know if Chandra ever met Garruk and Nissa seems like the perfect candidate. Jace and Chandra started as foes and ended as friends. I think they can print some cards that picture this development. So he fits. Didn't they fight against Sarkhan (still mind controlled by bolas)? He was red/black at that time, so unlikely. And Ramaz (I believe he was Temur colored) manipulate her to find the dragon fire scroll.
on the Mothership on Monday, maybe we can get something else during the weekend

The bigger question for me is: when do we find out the fall set? On one hand I’m thinking we should at least know it by the time that previews are done. On the other hand, I’m starting to feel like Wizards are going to start doing things last minute so we may get it a week before fall previews from what I know. I’m really curious where we are going next and the wait is starting to kill me!
Edit: I just realized I posted this in probably the wrong place. Sorry everyone in this thread.
They used to do an annual 'announcement day' in mid-ish may every year and that would be where they would reveal the fall set's plane. They did not do one this year so it's anyone's guess when and how they'll do the announce.
(baseless speculation speaking) Maybe they delayed the announce until during/after M20 spoilers because it implies some plot development that they don't want revealed yet. Like when they concealed the Eldritch Moon symbol for so much longer than usual (the name of War of the Spark was also kept under wraps longer than most sets' names). Given M20's focus on the life and times of Chandra, maybe M20 cards reference some events on, say, Regatha, or Kephalai - which they don't want people thinking about yet.
At this point it is pretty safe to assume the RG archetype for this set is elementals (which I think is the earliest we've seen an archetype presented). Am curious to see what the others will be.

With the spoiled angel being at spot 4, I'm wondering how many of the other cards before her will be "Angel of X"...
Also, if lifegain will actually be a thing for white (and not just some random cards here and there just to put the lifelink keyword somewhere) I would love to see a return of Archangel of Thune...
Imagine it with all the proliferate going around with War of the spark

Agreed but don’t forget elementals is a well known 5-color tribe so we could see some WUB colors for elementals as well
So, they are using Vivien instead of Nissa. While I can understand so that there are not two elemental walkers, they could have done a more land focused Nissa. Story wise, I'm curious as to why Vivien is being used instead of Nissa, and about Yangling being included at all. Did the War of the Spark story mention Chandra knowing either of them prior to the events of the story? I know that there are continuity issues within the story, but it's the only lore source outside of the cards.

All the walker had a few war meetings so its assumed that everyone kinda met everyone then.
I think they didnt tie the other walkers to Chandra since all most of her connections to other walkers are to the gatewatch and the said they wanted to try and give more focus to other characters if able. We got Chandra and Ajani for gatewatch, Sorin is popular and the color he is in is lacking a lot of there characters (same for Vivien in green) and Yanling is doesn't have much lore on her.

Wait did I miss something? How do we know the other Planeswalkers and who they are?
The promo and packaging article shows the booster packs and the five planeswalker decks (minus the face walker but has the name and promo art on it).

Since the Sultai wedge is getting ETB stuff, could we see an Acidic Slime reprint?
I’d say there’s a good chance! Acidic Slime usually gets reprinted and I see no reason for them not to.
And yeah thanks for the answers, I saw the promo packaging myself. It’s weird how we see Vivian and not Nissa. I guess wizards is really pushing for Vivian to get some spotlight now. Makes me wonder if we are going to visit Skalla in the near future! I find Mu Yangling and Sorin also equally interesting. I’m wondering if any of these hint on what the next few sets are. Looking forward to what the Planeswalkers cards have in store!
So for Mythics, I wonder if we pretty much them even though it’s early.
15 mythics
5 Planeswalkers
5 legendary (wedge) creatures (not confirmed but I can see us getting this)
5 monocolored Mythic Rare cycle (I read Maros article and he said that Cavalier of Flames was part of a cycle)
I feel like I’m missing something. We can’t have a general idea of Mythic spoilers on day 1.....can we?

considering there is just 1 week of spoilers, why not?
If there is a cycle of mythic creatures, I hope the white one is an angel to go along with the cleric and the lifegain theme. I mean, we need some replacements for resplendent angel and Lyra when they rotate out

If a cycle, perhaps a Cavalier of... cycle, with each costing 2CCC, much like the Soul of or Titan cycles of Core Sets past. If so, that begs the question of what the other four (possibly five if they make an artifact one).
Activated abilities:
White - Gives creatures lifelink/first strike, maybe +0/+1
Blue - Gives creatures hexproof (too good?), and +1/-1 or -1/+1
Black - Gives menace/deathtouch (or both?), not sure about a buff though
Green - Gives trample and +1/+1
ETB:
White - Make a token or gives vigilance
Blue - Cast instant or sorcery from graveyard without paying mana cost, exile after
Black - Sac a creature, draw cards equal to CMC
Green - Target creature you control fights one you don't control
Dies:
White - Gain life equal to creatures on battlefield
Blue - Return up to X non land permanents to their controller's hand
Black - Each opponent sacrifices X permanents where X is the numbers of your creatures that died this turn
Green - Untap X lands
Now, these are rough ideas and likely not even remotely balanced (and I have no ideas for a possible artifact Cavalier), tried to base them off of the red Cavalier.

On the Planeswalker front I would say Nissa for green is a given. The question is if they introduce new people for the Netflix series. On mono black I can see Davriel and for white Kashmina or Teyo. I mean they could flesh out the newcommers a bit.
Hands to the sky
Give a round of applause
For the great Miss Y!

Blue- I can see Jace because well he’s Jace and pretty much wizards poster boy! Although I can see Kasmina. I don’t have a source (or remember one) but I thought Maro said or someone else in wizards that they were hoping to include Kasmina a bit more soon so I can see her reintroduced here.
Red- Chandra, Chandra, and Chandra!
Black- hmmm. I’d say too soon to really bring Lilana. That said we almost always see Lilana in the coresets. I wanna guess we will see Sorin or Ob Nixilous. Sorin is usually involved in stories a lot and well Ob Nixilous ran off elsewhere so I can see him. Just a guess though this by no means means we see Ob Nix soon.
Green- Given Chandra and Nissa are lovers! Nissa!
3 other “food for thoughts”:
1. White could be Ajani. I can see him trying to help Chandra out with coping. He is a mentor!
2. Bit of a stretch hence I didn’t mention it. Dovin or Tezzeret. can be monoblue. I mean they are arch enemies of Chandra, especially after Kalendash!
3. Even more of a stretch than last point, Wouldn’t a mono black Tibalt be interesting. I really wanna say that with the comics that Tibalt May show up but that would mean he’s either monoblack, mono red and we get two red characters, or multicolored which is doable considering what we saw with Bolas last time!
on the Mothership on Monday, maybe we can get something else during the weekend
Already? Nice. I was wondering why the Number Crunch would start so early, didn´t realize that it was already time for the spoiler season
Edit: I just realized I posted this in probably the wrong place. Sorry everyone in this thread.
(baseless speculation speaking) Maybe they delayed the announce until during/after M20 spoilers because it implies some plot development that they don't want revealed yet. Like when they concealed the Eldritch Moon symbol for so much longer than usual (the name of War of the Spark was also kept under wraps longer than most sets' names). Given M20's focus on the life and times of Chandra, maybe M20 cards reference some events on, say, Regatha, or Kephalai - which they don't want people thinking about yet.

Also, if lifegain will actually be a thing for white (and not just some random cards here and there just to put the lifelink keyword somewhere) I would love to see a return of Archangel of Thune...
Imagine it with all the proliferate going around with War of the spark
Agreed but don’t forget elementals is a well known 5-color tribe so we could see some WUB colors for elementals as well
But still likely to focus on gruul colors

All the walker had a few war meetings so its assumed that everyone kinda met everyone then.
I think they didnt tie the other walkers to Chandra since all most of her connections to other walkers are to the gatewatch and the said they wanted to try and give more focus to other characters if able. We got Chandra and Ajani for gatewatch, Sorin is popular and the color he is in is lacking a lot of there characters (same for Vivien in green) and Yanling is doesn't have much lore on her.

The promo and packaging article shows the booster packs and the five planeswalker decks (minus the face walker but has the name and promo art on it).

I’d say there’s a good chance! Acidic Slime usually gets reprinted and I see no reason for them not to.
And yeah thanks for the answers, I saw the promo packaging myself. It’s weird how we see Vivian and not Nissa. I guess wizards is really pushing for Vivian to get some spotlight now. Makes me wonder if we are going to visit Skalla in the near future! I find Mu Yangling and Sorin also equally interesting. I’m wondering if any of these hint on what the next few sets are. Looking forward to what the Planeswalkers cards have in store!

15 mythics
5 Planeswalkers
5 legendary (wedge) creatures (not confirmed but I can see us getting this)
5 monocolored Mythic Rare cycle (I read Maros article and he said that Cavalier of Flames was part of a cycle)
I feel like I’m missing something. We can’t have a general idea of Mythic spoilers on day 1.....can we?
If there is a cycle of mythic creatures, I hope the white one is an angel to go along with the cleric and the lifegain theme. I mean, we need some replacements for resplendent angel and Lyra when they rotate out
If a cycle, perhaps a Cavalier of... cycle, with each costing 2CCC, much like the Soul of or Titan cycles of Core Sets past. If so, that begs the question of what the other four (possibly five if they make an artifact one).
Activated abilities:
White - Gives creatures lifelink/first strike, maybe +0/+1
Blue - Gives creatures hexproof (too good?), and +1/-1 or -1/+1
Black - Gives menace/deathtouch (or both?), not sure about a buff though
Green - Gives trample and +1/+1
ETB:
White - Make a token or gives vigilance
Blue - Cast instant or sorcery from graveyard without paying mana cost, exile after
Black - Sac a creature, draw cards equal to CMC
Green - Target creature you control fights one you don't control
Dies:
White - Gain life equal to creatures on battlefield
Blue - Return up to X non land permanents to their controller's hand
Black - Each opponent sacrifices X permanents where X is the numbers of your creatures that died this turn
Green - Untap X lands
Now, these are rough ideas and likely not even remotely balanced (and I have no ideas for a possible artifact Cavalier), tried to base them off of the red Cavalier.
