They're probably trying to conserve design space with these return sets. But hey, at least going back to Innistrad may give us another crack at a legendary werewolf.
I just want to say they kept saying they didn't want to distract from BFZ with any Commander 2015 spoilers, 2 days before they start Commander spoilers they announce the spring set.
Well... That was certainly surprising. I had not expected us to revisit Innistrad directly after a revisit to Zendikar. Honestly, I had expected a new world first.
In before Tamiyo.

It's about time for the reserved list to die, for the sake of Vintage and Legacy (And Commander).
Great Announcement for Halloween, my favorite two worlds back to back, now they just need to put a Sorin and Nahiri card in there and my heart is going to explode
Maybe we will finally see Edgar, if he is still around he may not be so happy that Avacyn is free again and is trying to tip the scale again.

BFZ is the best limited environment they've given us since...Innistrad. Gives me high hopes for their ability to do great things with Inn draft again.

Also that is totally the placeholder name I was using for my custom Hypothetical-Return-To-Innistrad set designs.

1) The plot will be that Avacyn has changed since coming out of the Helvault, as a result things are going pear-shaped.
2) Playable Tibalt (possibly R/B).

Kind of sad that we'll only get two sets of Innistrad this time. Maybe They'll decide to have the fall 2016 block be a continuation
Obviously DFCs are back, and I really hope flashback returns.
