You can't change the names of the cards like that or they would be considered completely new cards for purposes of other formats (wouldn't be standard legal since they technically didn't get printed in a standard legal set), though they could just issue errata that they are considered the same card i guess.
I don't mean literally change the names, just change the flavor.

I like the art a lot. They're all zombified in very appropriate ways too, like Chandra being literally burnt out and Nissa having flowers growing out of her corpse. And I got a chuckle out of Jace eating his own brain.
I have mixed feelings about these. I like them but I was hoping for some more black on blacks. Does anyone know if these are going to be sold on Hasbro's website?

I hope this means Liliana backstabs the Gatewatch immediately after Emrakul is sealed (and Tamiyo leaves)
(Just kidding, but I better disclaim it here before someone thinks I'm serious about it).
Seriously though, these promos aren't quite to my tastes - I know they're trying to go the humor route, but the art seems a bit too gritty for even the dark humor and that somehow it feels a bit off to me. Also, while I understand Liliana is the necromancer, it still feels out-of-place not to have a zombified B planeswalker (basically Narset instead of Taigam all over again). Well, even if I don't appreciate this particular set of promos, I'm sure someone will.
these are real? I thought it was a hoax because of the art, which looks like the characters were cropped out of another picture then stuffed on this background, and because of gideon has an arm coming out of his crotch. Hoping it is fake.
Have you guys noticed each Planeswalker is his/her own bane?
Jace is eating his brain. The thing that makes him special.
Nissa is being outgrown by plants.
Chandra is being burned.
Gideon is the strangest one. He's lost his arm. I guess it was his fighting arm.
I think they all committed suicide; Gideon strangled himself, Jace exploded his own brain(the angle of the cavity also suggests suicide by firearm), Chandra set herself on fire, and Nissa tried to turn herself into a plant. Weirdly dark for MTG.
I really wish these were true to the story. I would love it if the Eldrazi actually managed to kill all of the gatewatch and Liliana got to resurrect them for the battle.

It is his own arm hanging from a strap from his shoulder.
These suck. I know some people will find them amusing because of the walking dead but......I don't care for them at all. I won't be buying them at all.
I hope most people agree with you because as far as I'm concerned, these look amazing! The black on black promos were almost completely unavailable after SDCC, if most people don't want to shell out for these, I might actually get to pick some up in the store after the event.

Specifically, someone ripped Giedon's right forearm off and strangled him with his own sural.

To those of you that like them, I am glad you do, but I think these are some of the worse card arts in recent history. The art has absolutely zero depth, it's just a person on a bland cloudy background.

Maybe he should have been blue in the face from drowning and covered in mud.

Stay reasonable, be mindful of your expectations and don't feed the trolls.

I don't just hate the idea behind these; they are poorly executed, as well.
Shame on you, Eric! You are capable of so much better than this!
