This guy, would either eat up several turns worth of mana to get a slow permanent that relies on your already have some board presence (after wasting said mana), or dies without generating any advantage.
Boros- Knight
Dimir- Spider. The head is close to the middle of the keyrune, the tail is at the top. six legs? Kinda sketchy, but that's what's displayed.
Gruul - Rhino
Simic - I'd like to say Cephalid, but it's likely some sort of mollusk
Orzhov - Gargoyle or Bat
I'm not going to lie, I am quite shocked people think that the Orzhov thing is going to be a gargoyle.
I mean, it's not impossible....but thrull? It looks like an Orzhov thrull, and they were referenced incredibly heavily throughout the Orzhov storyline/flavor/cards...if it isn't a thrull, I will be extremely surprised.
Creature type predictions, based on the heads of the keyrunes.
Boros: Soldier
Dimir: Possibly Rogue or Spirit; Dimir spirits have face coverings.
Gruul: Beast
Simic: No idea. Looks like a Nim, but obviously isn't.
Orzhov: Thrull
Mmmmmmmm nah, I'm thinking
barbarian or warrior or something similar for Gruul,
Merfolk for simic (they're new on Rav now in some hidden ocean or something),
And gargoyle or construct for orzhov.
Dimir is prolly spirit and boros is prolly soldier.
Who knows though! I like speculation, its fun lol
Edit: am I the only one who read about the merfolk on the mothership? Anyone? Bueller?
The true mind can weather all the lies and illusions without being lost. The true heart can tough the poison of hatred without being harmed. Since beginning-less time, darkness thrives in the void but always yields to purifying light.
I invision a future where one is not mighty when he can silence a crowd with brutality,
but when he leaves them speechless with wisdom.

It's a thrull. Orzhov gargoyles don't have masks.

The wedding is over. Now it's time for the honeymoon.

I'm going to say Simic is Ooze or Mutant. Dimir might be Horror. Gruul looks weird (not the creature type). Warrior? Lizard?
Oh dear god. Please be this. Gonna release the kraken allllll over this place.

I fear I won't have much time to play Magic these days.
I get to watch worlds develop around me.
I get to watch great leaders, terrible oppressors, and trend setters rise and fall.
Limited, Standard, Modern, everything is a different playing field I feel I can observe, but will not actually touch.
I look forward to the stories I will hear.
And more so to the ones I will watch unfold first hand.
Isn't the unknown exciting?
Sounds reasonable, I like unblockable for Dimir, not sure about Spirit though. I think Horror or Shade or something along those lines is more likely.
And while hexproof is certainly u/g, a 1/4 animating hexproof guy doesn't make a whole lot of sense mechanically. Not sure what other keywords fit but... hm.

The Izzet and selesnya don't have keywords... There is a world of possibilities for the next keyrunes
Momir Vig, Simic Visionary
Melek, Izzet Paragon
Oona, Queen of the Fae
Bruna, Light of Alabaster
Gisela, Blade of Goldnight
Rhys the Redeemed
Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord
Sen Triplets
The Mimeoplasm WUBRGSliver OverlordGRBUW WUBRGSliver Hivelord(Superfriends)GRBUW
The Izzet and selesnya don't have keywords... There is a world of possibilities for the next keyrunes
And Izzet keyrune has the ability on "deals combat damage to player". Totally see Dimir doing something like this - according to "if one of ours managed to sneak, something nasty happens" philosophy.
And Gruul can easily be just beater of enormous size. That's Gruul, after all.
I think in the flavor 'unblockable' is supposed to be "sneaky"... like you are sneaking past their defenses. I could see some unblockable dude who maybe mills, or has the option to deal damage in milling.
The Simic one reminds me of Shielding Plax. Similar plates, tenticals...

(U/B) is :symbu: or :symub: and the same is true for the other 9 hybrid symbols with their two colors in for the last 2 leters of the code. ((2/B) and co are :sym2b:)
Alternatively {UB} or {2B} in [mana] tags are (U/B) or (2/B) T is :symtap: and T will give T in [mana] tags
Hexproof maybe? That sounds fairly Green and Blue to me.
I wanna say it's a Gargoyle; there were a few back in the original Ravnica block.

Boros: Soldier - 1/2 Double Strike
Dimir: Spirit - 2/1 Unblockable
Gruul: Beast - 3/2 Trample
Simic: Octopus - 1/4 Hexproof
Orzhov: Thrull - 2/2 Lifelink
My two cents.
The awesome-est MTG webcomic out there. Go check it out!

ESP. if Kiora shows up in the block-
Release the Kraken!
I would guess 2/2 Hexproof or Islandwalk.
