I'd be pretty funny if "Cosmo Wolf" and "Cosmo Serpent" turned out to be the actual card names.
Something about that seems off to me, I don't think Wizards would name a card cycle just "Cosmo XXX". Could they represent Minions of the evil forces on Kaldheim? They depict a Wolf and Serpent, both have norse mythological antagonistic characters associated with them (Wolf = Fenrir, Sperpent = Jörmungand).
Anyway, these really makes me happily curious about Kaldheim. I really like how R&D designed different pantheons so far, they really felt distinct in both lore and card design.
Maybe the Cosmo [animal] is another form of the Gods. We know that Kaldhelm has mDFC, and in some mythologies the gods could come into mortal world into animal form. This is most common in Greek mythology but we did not get a direct equivalent in Theros (looking at you Heliod, how could you not transform into a goose???).
It would be cool if the Gods could be played as a powerfull Cosmos creature that goes rogue or as a god that needs devotion. Also this would make those indestructible gods more relevant as extra copies could potentialy be played.
