That name puts a grin on my face. Not sure why, but it does. Looking forward to seeing what the card does!
(There's a distinct lack of a Tamiyo listing, though. That worries me.)
Notice that Sorin and Arlinn are also not listed, but they both have cards. Exclusion from this list does not mean no card
Huh. Guess I should have looked over the list more closely - I just looked down, saw Kiora and Gideon, and assumed all 'walkers up through EMN were included. Well, fair enough then: there still...heh. There still remains hope.

+2 Put 2 2/2 zombie tokens into play tapped
0 Put target creature from your graveyard into play you lose life equal to converted mana cost
-6 Search your library for a black card, reveal it, you may cast it without paying its mana cost. If it would be put into your graveyard from play exile it instead.
I wonder if the new "flip" promo token will be part of the new Lily. Maybe her +1 will add a 2/2 transforming zombie, and her ultimate gives you an emblem that says something like "whenever a zombie token dies, return it to the battlefield transformed"? Just a thought.

Once a token 'dies' which means it must go in to the graveyard, a token is gone... it can't come back transformed.
Wizards have made 4-color cycles before all the way back to Arabian Nights: there's no white Djinn and just as recently as Eternal Masters: there's no Worldly Tutor. I don't think Liliana's gonna get an oath. The only reason she'll save Innistrad is because she likes it. So it's basically Jace + Tamiyo + Liliana vs. Nahiri + Emrakul.

My guess is that Wizards would repurpose transform as going mad, and zombies would just transform into themselves to show they are immune to the insanity. I think it would make a nice wink. That's the only way I can explain the do-nothing tranforming token.
(With obvious cards that care about other card transforming as a trigger?)
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.
Whelp, looks like LotV is about to hit a stupidly high price that it really doesn't warrant.
Absolutely no one should be surprised that Liliana of the Veil isn't being reprinted. If the price spikes because of this it will really show how fragile and stupid the Magic community is.
Some of us were hoping against hope after they botched reprinted her in EMA, after all, it's a card worth almost as much as x3 the price of a Mindsculptor while only seeing around 11% play in legacy and Modern top 8 decks.
Well, it shouldn't be surprising that she wasn't in Eternal Masters either. There weren't going to be any chase Modern playable cards in EMA. I'd be shocked if she wasn't in Modern Masters 2017, however.
LotV is not something that will be reprinted in Standard under the current climate. Plus, it doesn't fit the storyline.
Maybe she jumps in and saves them like Chandra did. Maybe she's the only one that can truly handle the madness
As for joining... she wouldn't join in the normal sense. Like swear and oath to protect the multiverse and such. But she would make a deal to help them out in things that would endanger her as well for help with other large problems like certain Demons... and she's always had a soft spot for Jace
They changed it! The page now says "Pôster Lua Arcana (tamanho tablóide)" in the place where it previously said Ultima Esperanza. They must have realised they leaked the card name before they intended to.
This means that Liliana, the Last Hope's card art is the same as the promo art for Eldritch Moon.

Rose tint my world, keep me safe from my trouble and pain.
It makes sense story wise if they have to depend on Liliana to defend Innistrad. It has been established that Emrakul makes her minions by twisting/transforming the plane's occupants. This would mean that Emrakul would be way more powerful in Innistrad that she was in Zendikar because Innistrad has a much larger population for her to work with, but Liliana will then step in and be the one to point out that no matter how huge the population of Innistrad is, the dead will always outnumber the living.
Whelp, looks like LotV is about to hit a stupidly high price that it really doesn't warrant.
I would have been blown away if LotV was reprinted in this set, they rarely put reprints of planeswalkers into expansions like Return to Ravnica, or Theros etc... They did show up more in core sets but now that those are gone they are going to be making mostly new ones in sets like this. Especially when their actions are paramount to the storyline, Liliana is a huge deal in this set and a reprint while nice for those that need copies it would not have as much of an impact as a new planeswalker especially in the lore.
If I understand Emrakul's ability correctly she reverses the nature of something (if I'm wrong the rest of this doesn't work) that's why we have Emeria a floating mountain range. What does Lily bring to the party? Zombies! Lots and lots of zombies. So I'm seeing a situation where she sends in a legion of zombies to attack Emrakul will reverse their nature which would bring them back to life and then they'll fight the Cult of Emrakul to death then Lily will raise them again. She's the last hope brings an unstoppable army to the table.

A good reason for lili to join the gatewatch is for her own wellbeing

I'm betting against her joining the gatewatch.
She's not exactly a team player.

As for her joining the Oath - it doesn't fit Liliana. However, the team needs their Black Ranger - so if not Liliana then who?
