I wonder if the other gods will follow a similar template of mana cost and amount of devotion. I could see some gods wanting a little more out of their followers, and thus a higher devotion requirement.

Evil is even, truth is an odd number, and death is a full stop.
I actually think the god may have a devotion that looks like
~ is not a creature unless the permanent cards in your grave have a devotion of _.
We already have a black demon that has devotion to black in the form of black mana symbols, so I don't think you are correct.
My guess for the black God's activated ability if it has one would be something along the line of a creature you controlling gaining deathtouch. As for what it would do every turn, if it follows the at upkeep deal, then gain one life target player loses one life. I would prefer however if it was a dark ritual ability that kept the mana in your pool till the end of your turn. A sort of put 2 counters on black God, remove them at any time for one black mana, remove them at the end of the turn if they don't get used up before that. Preferably they would use a better wording.

RIP Batman guy. I hope somebody picks up the slack now that you are gone. Sick children need their Batman.
If the black god has a cheap mana cost (cmc<=4) then I could totally seeing it slip into a black Aggro deck for modern. That sounds odd at first, but considering there are tons of ways to keep it a creature (Bloodghast, Gravecrawler, Nether Shade/Shadow) I totally think it could fit right up there with Korlash, Phyrexian Obliterator, and the other popular votes. Kind of a random thought, but yeah.

What are the chances of a WUBRG God card similar to Genju of the Realm (+ the other 5 mono colored Genjus).
In Theros? Zero. There's no reason for them to have hidden it from us for this long (especially while they discuss the other gods in significant detail), and it really doesn't fit with the Gods' devotion mechanic.
But there might be a chance for something like a hidden god in Journey into Nyx, which seems like the set to put something like that in. It could have both the creative reasoning for it and some mechanical changes to allow a five-color god to work (such as a variant of Devotion).
I was saying Prismatic Omen because it would be mana intensive to run a deck with lots of different mana symbols in their costs. Like trying to run Phyrexian Obliterator and Fusion Elemental in the same deck. I don't know why you thought I thought it changed mana symbols.
Curious if each god will have "(1)(C): Creature gains [color] ability." And an upkeep effect.
Just like the Miracle cards, I bet these god cards will be super sweet in FOIL. Can't wait to see them in someone's binder. I never get lucky enough to crack awesome art FOIL-ed like this.
Really excited to see how playable the red god will be for mono red standard. Devotion seems possibly easy to achieve with Ash Zealot, Boros Reckoner and company.

Mhmm! I remember when I pulled a foil Moonveil Dragon, I was the happiest person on earth for about two weeks.(I really^1000000 wanted a foil Moonveil, because it has some of the best art on any dragon at all) I would really like to pull foils of these for aesthetics more than playability(and if Thassa is indeed like this, they should be pretty playable O.o)

i can see the green one requiring more than 5 devotion otherwise getting 5 green mana symbols in play could happen as quick as turn 3
Agreed, they're probably not uniform in devotion/size, but I would bank on them all having an ability to target your own creatures to trigger Heroic.
actually, activated abilities cannot trigger Heroic.

Many thanks to DNC at Heroes of the Plane Studios
You don't say the reference in the reference.
In other news, these god cards are pitiful.
