I can't help but think the elemental-y girl leading the Selesnya horde is our 'Walker. With Jarad leading the Golgari, and Savra deader than dead, the Golgari need a Champion.
Since Tolsimir is still around, as we can see from his art with Voja, I'm willing to bet that Ludmilla has worked her way back up in the Golgari ranks to reach the post of Champion, explaining the single female Gorgon art.
The Selesnya horde seems like an obvious G/W Overrun, but surely an iconic PW could appear in such an art, so as to be seen below Mythic rarity.

I think this should be it!!!! Remember the last Uncharted realm and the priest that is fighting the Gorgon and she suddenly just dissapeared when she was injured? Well what else could it be that she just planeswalked away???
Remember also that the Uncharted realms history would end up this week with a preview card and that should be the Gorgon I'm sure of it (planeswalker or not)
This is a very good point actually. I went and read it again and it really sounds like that Gorgon just ascended or at the very least just planeswalked away.
This, in combination with the very Planeswalker-looking Golgari art from the trailer makes it very likely that she's the missing Planeswalker in my opinion. I guess we'll see when the next Uncharted Realms comes out.
What if they pull a surprise and give us an actual UR PW
I doesn't look that much like a female but who knows?
I know that Wizards ignores color balance when printing planeswalkers, but I really hope that they'd do their best to avoid printing two blue walkers in the same set.

Hi, I agree with you, I was just looking at the trailer again and trying to guess which images could be planeswalker art. This kinda looked like it has some potential.
But I completely agree that two walkers with blue in the same set is a bit too much. Especially when Maro stated that when choosing the order for the Guilds for each set, one of the rules was that each color had to be represented twice... so if they wanted another blue walker they could still do it in either GTC or sinker!
My prediction for when we'll see Kiora would be when we return to Zendikar. That plane is a much better match for her, and there's a perfect opportunity for her to be pitting her sea monsters against Eldrazi.
Maybe that's the plot for the next ZEN block; go around waking up ancient monsters to fight against the eldrazi. A battle of the titans so to speak. Could work.
A gorgon planeswalker would be cool, but that's getting awfully close mechanically to Liliana, who epitomizes black pretty well. But, it's alright if they go the 'gorgon who turns things to stone' angle versus the 'golgari necromancer' angle.
Here's hoping she's stone-cold nuts.
...I couldn't resist.
But seriously, she better not be another Tamiyo; cool but a stretch to use well.

Really? Because I MUCH prefer planeswalkers to be silver bullets rather than rocket launchers. Even if just for the fact that it prevents another Elspeth 1/JtMS situation.
Well, looks like GW is keeping its title of "only allied colour pair to not get a planeswalker." A title it so valiantly defended since Scars of Mirrodin, 2 years now...
I'd like to think she is the one who appeared to be sculpting wood, but at this point, the gorgon seems too much obvious...
I thought the booby Izzet Mage lady was in the video.. Seems like a possibility.
@ above - that Izzet picture looks like a dude. Plus it's just a crazy experimenting on himself, not very planeswalkery.
In the same way you can tell someone is from the XVIII century because he is arroused by ankles, you can tell someone is from USA because he feels nipples disturbing.
Didn't maro say that walker was someone we haven't seen before? Well there is only one Gorgon left and we have seen her before so doesn't that rule her out.

Well, we can't be sure that she's the 2nd RtR walker.. But that won't stop us from speculating anyway

+1 Lair Delve ? I probably meant Mulch or Tracker's Instincts
-2 Return target creature card in your GY to hand
-5 You get an emblen with "You may cast creature cards in your GY as if they were in your hand"
Loyalty: 3
Calling it now!
I like the general idea. I would give her 4 Loyalty and bring her Ultimate cost to 8 since that emblem is almost an auto win in creature-heavy decks.

When did they say they now care about their colors... around M13? Last block we just had, had 3 black walkers.
This one has Jace who is blue and probably Ral Zarek in the 3rd set who also has blue and if they actually do have Kiora, there is a 3rd pw with blue. Even without Kiora there is still 2 more possibilities for at least a splash of blue.
If this walker is the GW elf instead of the GB chick, we're probably about to have a RW Gideon right after and a RU Zarek right after. No matter which way we put it, there will be an uneven clash of colors methinks.
To make it even, so far we most likely have U (Jace), WR (Gideon), RU (Ral), and if this chick is GB we have:
U: 2
W: 1
R: 2
G: 1
B: 1
To make it the closest to even, we can't do another GB- we would need a GW or a BW (which we just did with Sorin). A GB in this set and a GW in the next feels kind of strange to me.
Mechanics and flavor are hand-in-hand to the greatest extent possible. Early on we wanted Planeswalkers to be "flavor first," but we found that the cards shape the metagame so greatly that mechanical concerns, as well as color distribution over a 2 - 3 year period, must be weighed. For example, if the story demanded a whole bunch of green Planeswalkers and no red ones, well, I'd have to change the story.
The idea seems to be mostly that not too many Planeswalkers should be playable in the same deck at the same time. Garruk doesn't really count as a Black walker in that sense.
If this is true, I could imagine her having the abilities of the original Sisters of Stone Death. Going in order, it could be plus to force a block, minus a few to exile a creature that blocked this turn, then minus a lot to return all exiled creatures. I'm not saying this is likely, but look how similar Niv-Mizzet, Dracogenius is to the original Niv-Mizzet, the Firemind.

Its Ultimate is so anti-synergistic with Scavenge that it would never happen. And aside from that, its -2 is so incredible weak (not to mention its +1) that this is all around just never going to work. Dont get me wrong, its ultimate is awesome and is appropriately costed with its other abilities, but that being said, its other abilities are far far too weak for this to be printed. And again its ultimate is anti synergistic with ITS GUILD MECHANIC. Never gonna happen
Now if we could only get something a little more exotic... like a Wurm.

Brian Tinsman, Set Designer can only be cast during the third set of a block.
When Brian Tinsman, Set Designer enters the battlefield, ignore all flavor and mechanics of the first two sets in the block. "Ok so what do we have here... gothic horror? Scrap it. Expand the Devine Vs. Demonic duel deck to 244 cards and print it!"

Is this girl you speak of in the video?
You mean her....she could deff be mono green.

Trostani and Jarad are not walkers. Jarad already has a card, Trostani is a legendary creature like the rest of the guild leaders.
Thanks to Rivenor of Miraculous Recovery Signatures!
The first and third are the Golgari and Selensya guild leaders respectively.
"Doesn't look that much like a female" is an understatement. He has a beard.

Nice design.
