Chandra, Torch of Defiance - Oops! All Chandras.
Prime Speaker Zegana - Draw for Power.
Pir & Toothy - Counterpalooza.
Arcades, the Strategist - Another Brick in the Wall.
Zacama, Primal Calamity - Calamity of Double Mana.
Edgar Markov - Vampires Don't Die.
Child of Alara - Dreamcrusher.
And yep was there any doubt about old grisel that's the last one on the packs.
Now we need to know who was on the box.
EDIT: scratch what I said it was Snapcaster mage on the box but DANG IT WIZARD WHY THE HECK DID YOU MAKE IT MYTHIC!?!? I guess it's dark confidant of the set.
Good eye. With Sedraxis Specter at 181 and Sprouting Thrinax at 189, and Tower Gargoyle at 196, that leaves another 7 multicolored cards between Sed- and Spr-, and then another 6 between Spr- and Tow-. That's a LOT of multicolored cards in such a narrow alphabetic range. MM2015 had 3 cards in the S-T range of multicolored. This set has at least 16.

Let's see...using the parameters of Modern, sets from RTR block or before, "gold" multicolor, and the letters...here's the options:
For the other set, it's actually Sto- to Tow-, because it goes Sprouting Thrinax, then immediately Stoic Angel. And then it goes from Stoic Angel at 190 to Terminate at 194. So that leaves three cards between them, and one card between Terminate and Tower Gargoyle.
The original Modern Masters had 11 Gold cards: 2 Mythics, 4 Rares, 5 Uncommons.
Modern Masters 2015 had 20 Gold cards: 6 Rares, 14 Uncommons.
Eternal Masters had 19 Gold cards: 3 Mythics, 7 Rares, 9 Uncommons.
This being a multicolor focused set, however, means that we'll likely see some common gold cards this time. We're already expecting at least 42, if not more, Gold Cards.
So, proportionally, I don't know what to guess yet. But I figured I could at least condense the information for other, smarter people.
I'm calling Sedris, the Traitor King to be in this set due to the unearth mechanic being a thing for limited. Only question is if it will get downshifted to rare or be a feelsbad mythic like a comet storm

The rest of the cycle did, to some extent, and I think it's be nice to see again in the limited environment.
The set is looking a lot better than when we had the initial MM15 reveals.
