Emrakul, Eldrazi again? Then Gatewatch kills "her" And then We Go To Phyrexians and They end up Destroyed... Then they decides to make another Big bad and after One or two blocks than to make a twist they will finaly kill Jace and make a hole "A Legend dies" and then we Will go back to Phyrexians ( great New new phyrexia)
yeah creative Team on Wizards are under a non creative state right Now
At :55, it looks like Nahiri's lithomancy rock sculptures are trying to summon something?
Indeed they are.
Theory time: A pissed off Nahiri has gone completely mad (heh), and is attempting to draw a certain otherwordly force to Innistrad due to whatever happened between her and Sorin, and is using her Lithomancy to act as a mana-spout to attract her. Hence explaining why said otherwordly force would go there. If that isn't enough of a clue, I'm saying that Nahiri is bringing Emrakul to Innistrad to exact a vendetta on Sorin (For whatever the reason is that they had their falling out).
I fully expect at this point that Emrakul is behind this, however it makes me quite glad that if this is the case, it's being taking far into the Lovecraftian route of subtle undertones. I doubt there will be a single Eldrazi in the entire block (Aside from Emrakul herself) if this is the case, and it's really looking like the case. People who think this will be BFZ part 2 really need to understand that there is an entirely different route they can go, particularly with Emrakul, that fits perfectly with Innistrad's flavor. If what I surmise is true, and given what we've seen, it appears that if Emrakul is behind it, it will be a lot more subtle than BFZ's Eldrazi.
hmm Nahiri is atracting Emrakull to Innistrad and then shes going to use the moon to imprison Emrakull to force Sorin to guard the plane like how she was forced to.
Damm Nahiri got really bat***** crazy if thats true
OTOH, I don't think that Nahiri and the Cults are really connected. Or, if so, Nahiri and the Cults are being manipulated by the same entity, and Nahiri is not manipulating the Cults.

DDamm Nahiri got really bat***** crazy if thats true
That is actually a pretty fitting motive, to be honest. The last UR with Nahiri indicated she wasn't exactly a very friendly lot to be around, and if memory serves was a little annoyed with Sorin not showing up. What we've seen of Shadows so far indicates that she has gone on a warpath against Sorin's brood, and she might be a *tad* bit unhinged due to spending that long in solitude ensuring the Eldrazi didn't escape Zendikar. Her first natural place to go would be Innistrad, and I imagine she might not be happy with the relative luxurious lifestyle that Sorin and his brood are living in at this point, and could feel a strong sense of betrayal over it if her supposed friend was shown to be taking massive advantage over her, and letting her do the dirty work while he gets to live the good life.
The Stromkirk worshipped a deity of storms and the seas, so that's my guess thrown out there for what the cultists are doing, besides Skirsdag and their demons.

That was my initial assumption, but seeing the cryptoliths me wonder if Nahiri isn't sabotaging the whole thing, like some people have proposed.
Minus Jace Overexposedleren (which almost made me throw my phone), it was quite a scary trailer.
And why do I feel that those angels perching on the delapidated church are Alabaster angels? (Being weaponless and all) I just feel that they are gonna be the easiest to corrupt with ever, seeing that their flight clings strongly to Avacyn.

I know some people think that Nahiri is behind the happenings on Innistrad, but what if the madness overwhelming the plane has also corrupted her. In the trailer even Jace was feeling the effects of the madness and he's a telepath. Whatever grip she has with Sorin could be magnified by whatever is going on.
Personally I hope that this set is not in any way connected to emrakul or the Eldrazi.
But as it seems it might be likely that they may have done such a lame thing, the only way I'd be okay with that is if the only connection is that Nahiri already trapped emrakul in the moon of Innistrad and it's just her influence that is affecting the plane as the moon shines on it at night.
If I see any Eldrazi or an emrakul card in either set then I'm going to be very disappointed in wizards and that's not something I say very often.
Hummm. The idea of Nahiri luring and trapping Emrakul on Innistards Moon is interesting. Even when trapped on Zendikar the titans presence created the Roil. Emarakuls effect corrupts living beings. So no need for her to be active on the plane or have any of her brood rampaging through Innistrad.

Do we really not want to see Emrakul though, it can be done right, and if she is here, it is being done right so far. I think it's just BFZ that ruined the..... eldrazi experience. That said, I would like to see something other than 'ol Em, but not because I don't think it would be good.
I'm not very much into the Marit Lage lore, could someone explain why this could be her? Any clues pointing to her besides "clues" and "hints" that could point to Emrakul?
I liked the trailer. I'm really looking forward to playing this set. Between the cards revealed until now and the story, it definitely looks like it won't be a disappointment as BfZ was.

Before the glory of Yawgmoth, yes, even this makes sense.
Jump scare warning!
Those cultists, though. Can't wait to see what they're trying to summon.

If by any chance the mistake of having 2 eldrazi themed sets one after the other happened, Emrakul trapped on the moon seems to be the smartest idea.
I shall wait for the based person who comes with a decent original non eldrazi theorie

I agree. I wish it was narrated by someone else. Pretty interesting otherwise.
