I think it’s risky for Wizards to dump so much blue and white aligned planeswalker support in the meta right now. It seems like not long ago that they rebalanced standard away from the Teferi Control takeover. And as a firmly Sultai player myself I’m a little sad to see the lack of Green treatment in mythic slots and Black in rare slots. But other than that, what are everyone else’s opinions on this. Did I get something wrong?
Ok cool I’ll make that edit. Also considering he was mono red for M19 I would hope they do something a little more interesting for him. It’s too bad he’s no longer black-aligned because that would definitely make the color distribution more balanced
I’m 100% sure Gideon is the mythic. His static ability is split into two parts showing still four abilities spread out, making him mythic. And considering Gideon will likely both play a crucial role in the storyline (probably more so than Ugin) and may die, whereas Ugin is favored to stick around to deal with potential Eldrazi issues in the future and the Sorin/Nahiri mess.
So weeks ago we had a thread full of crazy color mix speculation about Planeswalkers. Now that we’ve seen about half of them, we’re starting a new thread with more bad speculation? I know people love predicting patterns, but this is getting ridiculous.

I wouldn’t exactly call this “bad” speculation. No walker is getting new colors from what’s been established, and we are just trying to fill in the gaps
Tolarian CC had The Wanderers walker card and signature spell, Player One has Teyo’s. I wouldn’t be surprised if MTGGoldfish got Staff Girl’s preview tomorrow or something

Also I hope Davriel’s first card isn’t a uncommon. I hope they bumped him up to rare. Unfortunately I don’t know if there’s room for that to work.

Good ole MaRo. Like I said. Lol
Also I have no idea. He’s also been mono red in the recent past so that’s also a possibility.

But I’m not digging through his blog again to find where he said it.
Teyo’s card has been revealed in the mono-White uncommon spot opposite The Wanderer.
