So the next Arena of the Planeswalkers expansion features 'Kiora, the Rising Tide' and
'Ob Nixilis, Demon of Spite'
. Could probably be added to the crunch as names.
So, have we found out the 3 walkers of BFZ or is the spoiler one not a walker? We still have Chandra, Nissa, Jace, and Ugin to appear. Obviously they can't all be in the block.

Well in fairness we don't know that Chandra will actually show up. She turned Jace and Gideon down pretty hard when they asked for help and instead decided to stay on regatha to lead the monastery. Not to mention they've talked about having the planeswalkers be a part of the story, even if they don't necessarily get a card in the block. It's very possible that Ugin and/or Jace could be relegated to story excerpts while working on a plan and the ones actually fighting on the front lines (Gideon, Kiora, Ob Nixilis, and Nissa seem pretty likely, leaving room for one more) will be the ones to actually get cards.

Its been stated a few times including by MaRo that Chandra will appear and the only walker from Origins that will not appear in Zendikar is Liliana. Someone did ask MaRo about Chandra turning her enemy colors down (Jace and Gideon) and he basically said stay tuned for who will get her to come to Zendikar.
You have both known names (e.g. Oblivion Sower) and speculated names (e.g. Kiora, the Rising Tide) in italics. This is really confusing. Might I suggest once again that you un-italicize the names that are known, especially now that the distinction actually matters?

Maybe they'll be more visible once the video goes up on Youtube. In the meantime, I'm pretty sure Prairie Stream is 241, Smoldering Marsh is 247, and Canopy Vista is 224.
They're up on Wizard's Facebook page. Plains is 254, Island is 259, Swamp is 264, Mountain is 269, and Forest is 274. It seems like each basic will have 5 distinct artwork, just like in RTR.
Ooh, and clearer pictures of the duals too on Facebook. Thanks!
Edit: From the clearer pictures, we can see that Sunken Hollow is in fact #249 rather than #248. The others though all have the correct number (no need for those asterisks on two of them).
What with there being 5 of each basic, that would make Sunken Hollow the last nonbasic land.
Not much to crunch there, since we know the Expeditions contain 5 "MegaChecklands", 10 Shocklands and 10 Fetchlands.
Since Steam Vents is #12 and Arid Mesa #24, it likely means the order is "MegaChecklands" - Shocklands - Fetchlands, ordered by WUBRG (Ally) and WUBRG (Enemy)
It looks like there's space for ten lands wonder if it's a cycle or 5 and some utility lands
My guess is that 5 of these will be a cycle of new spell-lands at common, a-la Halimar Depths and Teetering peaks, and the other 5 will be a cycle of uncommmon lands.
Edit: Pardon my link. This video confirms that each basic has 5 distinct artwork, one of which is a reprint of the original zendikar full-art. Boy, are they gorgeous! https://youtu.be/YlvUfjFaBCw?t=2m35s
What's odd is I thought it was confirmed that we only have 3 planeswalkers in this set. We know Gideon is one and we have a possibly leaked Ob-Nixilis but we also have Art for Nissa so I thought she would be a given. I know we have a name for Kiora but are we sure she is in this set? We either have one too many planeswalkers or one of them is in a different set. I'm pretty sure Nissa is in this one, expecting Kiora in the next set. That or all four of them are in the set because only three of them are on the same side?

No, Yatsufasa is right. When ordering enemy pairs, WotC always does it by first color (WB, UR, BG, RW, GU), not in a cycle (WB, BG, GU, UR, RW). For instance, look at how the cards in Alara Reborn were ordered.

I second that.
I think i've got the duals
Edit: OK, I guess 224 is too early.

3 - Smoldering Marsh
4 - Cinder Glade
5 - Canopy Vista
6 - Hallowed Fountain
7 - Watery Grave
8 - Blood Crypt

11 - Godless Shrine
12 - Steam Vents (Confirmed)
13 - Overgrown Tomb
14 - Sacred Foundry
15 - Breeding Pool
16 - Flooded Strand
17 - Polluted Delta
18 - Bloodstained Mire
19 - Wooded Foothills
20 - Windswept Heath
21 - Marsh Flats
22 - Scalding Tarn
23 - Verdant Catacombs
24 - Arid Mesa (Confirmed)
25 - Misty Rainforest
EDIT: Numbering typo.

I LIKE DRAGONS!
That isn't how WotC orders their duals.
Correct order is
6 - Hallowed Fountain
7 - Watery Grave
8 - Blood Crypt
9 - Stomping Ground
10 - Temple Garden
11 - Godless Shrine
12 - Overgrown Tomb
13 - Breeding Pool
14 - Steam Vents (12/25 is its number though)
15 - Sacred Foundry
Not:
12 - Steam Vents (Confirmed)
13 - Overgrown Tomb
14 - Sacred Foundry
15 - Breeding Pool
