Hellkite Tyrant4RR
Creature - Dragon (MR)
Flying, trample
Whenever Hellkite Tyrant deals combat damage to a player, gain controll of all artifacts that player controls.
At the beginning of your upkeep, if you control twenty or more artifacts, you win the game.
6/5
Aurelia, the Warleader2RRWW
Legendary Creature - Angel (MR)
Flying, vigilance, haste
Whenever Aurelia the Warleader attacks for the first time each turn, untap all creatures you control. After this phase, there is an additional combat phase. Where Razia was aloof, and untouchable, Aurealia is on the frontlines, calling for war.
3/4
Domri Rade1RG
Planeswalker - Domri (MR)
+1: Look at the top card of your library. If it's a creature card, you may reveal it and put it into your hand.
-2: Target creature you control fights another target creature.
-7: You get an emblem with "Creatures you control have double strike, trample, hexproof, and haste."
[3]
Borborygmos Enraged4RRGG
Legendary Creature - Cyclops (MR)
Trample
Whenever Borborygmos Enraged deals combat damage to a player, reveal the top three cards of your library. Put all land cards revealed this way into your hand and the rest into your graveyard.
Discard a land card: Borborygmos Enraged deals 3 damage to target creature or player.

Well, Gideon is probably going to pop up some time soon in Gatecrash, and with what appears to be an Izzet planeswalker in Dragon's Maze, I'm not expecting much in the way of more planeswalker.
A Simic planeswalker would definitely be cool though.
Isn't Gideon pretty much confirmed to be Boros, what with that image of him and Aurelia that I have in the OP?
I couldn't imagine Gideon being Selesnya.
That picture doesn't prove anything, considering that there is a picture of Jace with Niv-Mizzet for RtR, and yet Jace, Architect of Thought is mono-blue.
It's still not colorless, and has no color. That's a paradox. So either you're a Zen master or an idiot, I'll assume the Zen master for sake of argument. This card will have no paradoxes because it has a clear paradox. Deep stuff man.

It was said during the last Gatecrash presentation with R&D that Gideon is Boros-affiliated, but he will be mono-white (like how Jace was, story-wise affiliated with Izzet, but is mono-blue.)
I probably need more caffeine to properly evaluate Domri Rade. Seems... interesting. May try it in a creature-heavy GR deck to test late today.

Story wise Jace isn't affiliated with any guild. Jace is an independent party while Gideon is affiliated with the Boros. Jace is suspicious of the Dimir and Izzet guilds.
I really, really want Kiora Atua, the Simic 'walker. As much for personal use as for Cube goodness. They teased her existence out so long ago and still nothing. When, WotC, when's gonna be my time??

When I see Healing Salve, I'm often like "Oh girl, I wish I could turn every card into this." Thanks they removed the gain life part, otherwise this would have been broken.
I'm a little disappointed at the news that the one-drop hybrid cycle won't be completed in Gatecrash. Here's hoping for a ridiculous two-drop cycle
Word. Though what I'm really looking forward to is another cycle of quality hybrid commons along the lines of what each guild got in RTR. I do a lot of Winchester drafting from my Pauper Cube. My opponent and I are rarely certain about what colors we're going to end up building decks with while we're making picks, so a hybrid card is always a welcome sight.
OK ... I spy, with my little eyes, something beginning by 'Fake'.
You know, the funny thing with planeswalker cards is that they have something in common with Unglued/Unhinged : The picture just can't stay in the frame.
Sometimes it's just the hair, sometimes a hand ... Nothing really big, but always something noticeable.
It's part of the planeswalker's charm ...
So, I won't hold my breath for this one ...
*facepalm*
I swear this point is brought up and subsequently debunked daily in the spoiler thread. NOT ALL PLANESWALKERS BREAK THEIR FRAME. Nissa Revane is one example and the promo versions of at least one or two others don't as well. Please don't retread tied arguments and apply a bit of Occam's Razor.
With the first set of spoilered cards for Gatecrash, we can kick off Gatecrash spoiler season!

Enter the Infinite is interesting and Borborygmos is very cool but neither are cubeable.

I love that one of the walkers is Gruul... but I'm still hoping the last one is Simic (or it's in The Dragon's Maze).
A Simic planeswalker would definitely be cool though.

My hopes for this set have dropped, but not every cycle has to be completed immediately. Here is to getting good one drops anyways!

As good as that would be, I'd prefer one for Gruul. I support green aggro and Gruul aggro is a fantastic deck in my cube.
Cheers,

I'm wondering this as well, and it's not like we can't get a sweet 1 drop just because it's not a cycle anymore.

True, but if the design forced hybrid 1-drops, we'd be more likely to see them.
