[@dungeonmaster16]

@Mr. Rice i mean my crazy fan theory is true then gideon could come back.... not his soul. basically: we know the next major lore build up is phyrexians returning with mentions of them by teferi, ajani and karn figuring out a counter plan, tezzeret know of them from bolas with bolas also planned to stop them. but tezzeret wants to seek them with same for ashiok hearing stories of them. what those 2 offer? well 1. tezzeret has knowledge to make a damn planar gate which is why the guild members are trying to seek and arrest/kill him so he wont mass produce those. he can make gates for the phyrexians to escape mirrodin and start invading different planes. 2. besides me ppl expect phyrexian planeswalkers so tezz and ashiok would turn into those plus help boost elesh norn army and plans. 3. this bit tin hate but wont surprise me with way story is. besides invading they have bigger plan. they want to bring someone back and he is the one that created them. but he is dead so its impossible...... unless. they need a "new" body to host the soul and someone strong enough to manipulate the dead to make it work so who could it be? hm.... its not like there is a strong body out there thats no longer alive or its not like someone on the run after her actions in war of the spark and hiding in dominaria now. plus she has that somebody that she can only see, talks and follow her with saying she has an important role one day. and the plane she is hiding in is her birth plane dominaria and its also where 2 major known planeswalkers of the past lived there that caused the ice age and birth of the phyrexians. tin hat off: fucking gideon body will host yawgmoth soul.

Now that I think about it. This is the first trailer with characters actually talking. I give them a C- on lip sync and an A on character modeling.

[@clicksclacks]

I'd extend that C- to animations in general. Movement is a little odd, like mid-budget PS2 game CG cutscene odd, and the facial animations as a whole were incredibly stiff.

Kuro Shinko What the hell does "boros villain" mean?

[@ianjusten-pratt7206]

Boros: red and white colored guild of ravnica. Nahiri is red and white therefore she’d fall into the Boros guild. They’re pretty much the army and protectors of ravnica and they do anything they want because they can. And nahiri has been kinda fucked over a few times which led to her changing her views and going kinda full revenge mode because she thinks the other “heroes” don’t actually really care.

I'm actually impressed, this trailer showed two things that had been bothering me for literal years: Nahiri is presented as an actual self-righteous villain who thinks she's a hero (instead of trying to justifying all the horrible things she does) and Nahiri directly controlling the hedrons. Edit: Yeah I know Nahiri made the hedrons with the help of Ugin and Sorin, that's why I said I've been waiting to see her control them, ffs.

[@woofergranade2044]

Agreed. You can really tell that her teacher was Sorin. She may hate him, but she is just as bad as him when it comes to thinking of the free will/lives of others.

[@xaed]

I have a feeling Sorin is gon' make a an appearance seeing as he's one of the few walkers who can hold his own against her. They're 1-1 duel-wise iirc. Nahiri sent to the helvault and Sorin imprisoned in stone. And their 3rd duel is unresolved from WAR. And there's an innistrad set incoming as well. So he'll probably play a key role in bringing her to heel.

[@TheFiresloth]

Character wise, that's an interesting set-up. Nahiri want to save the plane, but since she's thousands of years old, she don't think of the people of Zendikar as integral part of the world, and is ready to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of them to have her home back. She's the defender of something that ceased to exist long, long ago.

Wizards of the Coast, I hope that you read the comments. Your cinematic trailers for your Magic: The Gathering sets would make excellent Dungeons and Dragons modules. Seriously, all of the Innistrad, Ravnica, Zenikar, Dominaria, Kalidesh, Amonkhet, Theros, Ixalan...making all of these campaign settings and making the sets into modules would be highly profitable and would further your goal of getting the Magic and DnD communities interested in the other community. You could possibly merge Innistrad with Ravenloft and expand the story potential for both. Possibly make Magic sets based on traditional DnD settings.

I haven't been this excited for a set to come out since War Of The Spark as far as the story/lore goes. But I just hope it's not a disappointment like war of the spark was.

@@aqeelrawjee9651 If they retire Jace, they should do it after he has closed ties with Liliana and his home plane of Vryn. If any walkers need to be retired, it is Chandra and Liliana. Every aspect of Chandra's story has been told, they are at a point where they have to create new story hooks just for her to not appear to be an extra. Liliana is almost in the same boat, the last 3 things she needs to do is to settle things with Jace, Garruk, and the Raven Man. Afterwards, her entire story arc has been told.

You know, we didn't actually see her hit the ground. And given how good Kor are supposed to be at self-arresting falls, (plus what Gerrard survived in Tempest) I wouldn't completely count her out just yet.

Omnath suddenly understands kozileks words clearly now, twas not the distruction of the plane the wanted, more, the destruction of the planes walkers. SO IT WAS ON THIS DAY, THAT THE ELDRAZI, AND THE ELEMENTALS FORGED AN INTERPLANAR ALLIANCE, PURGE ALL PLANESWALKERS!!! (as a mana signal echoed through every plane through the great eternities, letting this new found aliance be known. First the planeswalkers, then the phyrexians

[@bloodfest8510]

Basically an eldrazi and elemental alliance against plainswalkers, and then golgari nissa verses nahiri Black and green verses red and white!

Nissa has art for a walker, I think she's pretty invested in keeping elementals around. Also, these sound like good factions for the commander decks...

[@Fitz97forpresident]

I see that Nahiri continues to carry on the OldWalker tradition of just, being the absolutely WORST when it comes to the lives of the puny plane-bound. Like damn, that's just cold. And as someone else stated, she's such a good Boros villain. Doing awful things for the worst reasons, but she thinks she's right, and that she's making the Plane and the Multiverse a better place, and nothing will ever convince her otherwise.

[@Engeldemuerte]

Does Sorin count as oldwalker?

[@Fitz97forpresident]

Oh yeah, absolutely! I tend to think of OldWalkers as any Pre-Mending Planeswalkers that existed as planeswalkers (post-ignition) for a significant amount of time before the Mending The level of power that Pre-Mending Planeswalkers had access to, as well as being effectively immortal (killing pre-mending planeswalkers was extremely difficult), led many planeswalkers to view themselves as separate and far superior to the planebound masses, even some of the "good" / "hero" planeswalkers. The longer that a Planeswalker existed Pre-Mending, the more detached they became, and most of them were also just kinda self-centered assholes I could list off examples, but then this comment would likely take multiple hours to write/read... But yeah, Nahiri and Sorin were both kind of awful when it came to the lives of the planebound (both on their home planes, and elsewhere in their travels)

[@nickbarone6206]

Audio and animations are very bad. What happened to the guys who designed war of spark trailer that was fantastic
