You may notice something strange on the #MTGSOI Prerelease poster...
Each poster contains a puzzle! Work together with players around the world and share your answer on social media with the tag #MTGSOI.
When enough players find the answer and share it under the #MTGSOI tag we’ll share some exclusive art.
The posters are going up @ Local Game Stores around the world on March 21st. It's already March 21st in some places!
You'll need all versions of the poster to get the answer! Tokyo and Seoul are waking up shortly. Maybe someone there could share a pic...
Currently theory is using the angles the 'lithos point but from his eye or spell, but language barrier makes it questionable. May need more info from other posters, but current guess is basically

sounds like the opposite you need to compare the posters to find the answer until we see another poster at the least we don't know what we're looking for
Poster is at an angle so that may affect things, but looks like it'd be "Travel, night, day, evil" which doesn't make a lot of sense. But that was assuming everything would start at the blue mana symbol. going in WUBR (only 4) order seems to be "Day, evil, magic, vampires" so that doesn't seem relevant either. It is of note to me that all of the "day" are on the left and all "Night" are on the right, and only "day" has 3 of their font style changed. Not sure of relevancy.

It may also be relevant that Green and White are on the Day side, Red and Black are on the Night side, and Blue is in the middle.
I'm calling it right now- worst rare in the set. Even good limited players will find better bombs at common and uncommon no sweat. Worst. Episode. Ever.
I really do predict this to be our worst rare in set award winner. I'd be happier opening a jar of eyeballs, so I think anything worse is highly unlikely. This card wont just have zero constructed potential, but not be significantly better than a mass of ghouls in a draft.
Regarding the poster with the symbols on it:
There are 26 symbols total - 4 Day, 4 Night, 2 Vampires, 2 Zombies, 2 Werewolves, 2 Favor, 2 Evil, 1 Magic, 1 Curse, 1 Knowledge, 1 Protection, 1 Unlimited, 1 Battle, 1 Travel, and 1 Guidance.
The things that stand out to me:
~26 symbols could have something to do with the alphabet, especially if other symbol posters have the same number of symbols as letters in the alphabet they use
~There aren't any symbols that show up three times. Dunno how it's relevant, but I'd wager it is
~There are five symbols that show up twice, maybe one for each color? My guess would be: White - Favor, Blue - Zombies, Black - Evil, Red - Vampires, Green - Werewolves
If we assume it's from the four corners of the poster, it's pretty limited, seems to read "Green Day Night Curse" which kind of sounds like a reference to the great aurora, but I'm probably overthinking. Do we have the other language posters yet?
Maybe We get to choose The symbols that form THE exacly same angle as the cryptoliths. And from that we get 4 letters and With all letters from all the posters we create a word. And maybe that word Will define a account ( Email, Twitter, etc) where we need To send/look for a answer
Did a little connecting the dots. As you can see 2 boxes form around white and red. Also in these 2 boxes are 2 symbols, white has protection and red has evil. Avacyn was once a protector of the humans and now she has turned evil against them. So maybe she's part of the puzzle somehow.
i noticed the cryptogliths area all pointing in different places one the two pictures, the moon is right above them, maybe they are meant to be like a moon dial and reference a time? idk i am just trying to join in and help
Woah, woah guys, you're looking way too far into this. Firstly, theres four different posters for four different cards
Secondly, it's clear that the cryptoliths can spell the word Emra (check the picture below!)
#EmrakulIsTheMoon2016 confirmed
But in all seriousness, I think we have all the evidence we need from the one poster, since it's supposed to be solved by your average joe who visited the game shop.

Thats probably it on this poster
Protection-Evil
Avacyn of SOI
but until we have pics of the other posters we can't be sure.
On a Sidenote: Picking both Vampire and conecting it to Evil seems to create the same angle as one of the cryptolits
Maybe its again something about Emailing or another pré release "quest" as the ones from Theros block
Also the poster has a link to http://magic.wizards.com/shadows Anyone have access to the Japanese stores?
It's probably connected to the discrepancy in the Tamiyo's Journey card

WE NEED ALL THE POSTERS TO SOLVE THE PUZZLE
"That's no moon." Or moon is leaving/evil.
So...
Seems a bit obvious.
Actually

Don't suppose anyone's got software that can make it readable
