So there's been no talk of a return to Fiora or a second Conspiracy set, which surprises me as I thought it was a financial success. Does anyone else think we'll return there and if so when? I kinda would like Fiora to be featured in a full 2-set block but I realize that such would not fit the multiplayer context and conspiracy-draft format that the story-line is centered on. If the return is just another supplimentary set I hope a greater percentage of cards are new ones that explore more depth into the plane and it's story-line. Particularly it's main Plotting characters and the planeswalkers from there, Dack and Darretti. Also it interests me in that though the flavor is similar to Ravnica, the urban element does not extend to the entirety of the plane, providing Creative an avenue of exploration. Fiora is my new favorite 'backwater' (Insignificant to the current narrative") plane.
Conspiracy was successful but not as much as, say, Commander Decks to gain its own slot. So it has to share the same yearly slot with Planechase and Modern Masters. They will also want to include a new concept on the slot sometimes, like Conspiracy itself was.
For this year we know it will be Modern Masters. I'd guess 2016 is more likely to be Planechase 3 or a new concept, so I'd put Conspiracy 2 at 2017.
I do think Fiora could be the focus of a block, specially now with shorter blocks twice a year.
Conspiracy was received well enough that Conspiracy 2 is an eventuality (and Fiora is the appropriate setting for it). So the question is when, not if.
Fiora as a full block is also possible, but it would require a different way of 'selling' the Fiora duplicity on cards than with the Watermarked 15th card per pack. Since you can't have a standard legal product with cards that require drafting mechanically. But on the other hand basic Fiora lands would be cool.
Fiora is also, technically, possible in Origins as one of the 10 planes involved with the 5 walkers.

That would be cool. Although it is hard for me to see it as being the home of any of the planeswalkers involved. maybe an interesting first stop tho.

Wizards. listen. The Vorthos community will await the consequences of the Eldrazi Titans' deaths/sealing. We will keep the watch.

If they do make a Fiora block, I hope we get more focus on the Low City or whatever it's called. Maybe we could have a war between the poor folk that establish the equivalent of street gangs against the rich artificers. Not necessarily a war, but a kerfuffle.

Come to think of it, we actually did see Fiora-related cards in Commander 2015 with Daretti. So it's definately still on the table.
