The five Amonkhet gods were never 'evil'. They were duped into facilitating the creation of the Dreadhorde. When Bolas showed his true colors, they all fought him. Hazoret was the only one who survived.
i wonder if we will also get the Scarab, Scorpion and Locust gods
Unlikely, as they aren't pictured here. Also, if the Scarab God were around, Bolas wouldn't need Liliana to control the Dreadhorde. Likely reason why is that the three gods were corrupted, not killed. Therefore, they can't go over the Planar Bridge. The 4 gods pictured were all killed, and thus apparently eligible for lazotep shipment.
Coincidence. But generally, Red is the color associated with love and emotions, wich is why Urabrask is the least evil of the praetors. Razoret's case was that she was the only survivor. The other gods were also good(except for Bontu, maybe, shee was diferent) and cared for the people on Amohkhet.
Red is the color of strong emotions, so it could be anger, hatred, lust, or love. In Hazoret’s case, Anubis (the Egyptian god she modeled after) is the patron of orphans, so she exhibits motherly love for the survivors of Amonkhet.
Worth noting that Bolas didn't kill the Gods himself, the Scorpion God did it for him, and Scorp got obelisk'd. Granted, Bolas always could raise Scorp God as a Zombie to finish the job, but he's already got four, and he has bigger fish to fry now.

MTGS Wikia Article about "New World Order"
Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
Well the corrupted gods (the 3 of HOD) had names before and were shaped and named after animals (insects) soo maybe this will happen again? Also the seccond god kinda remembers the scorpion god
Maybe oketra is the Bull god (or minotaur god) (or if insect based, the beetle god )
Hazoret lives! At least we only see four of the five.

i wonder if we will also get the Scarab, Scorpion and Locust gods
Scorpion god is dead
Could be revived like the others
I don't think so. They killed the scorpion god by spearing it on an obelisk, and Hazoret used her spear to fry it from inside out. Otherwise it would have just reformed afterward, like the other times it died. In terms of game mechanics, it was exiled.
The Scarab, Scorpion, and Locus gods were corrupted by bolas, and he turned the best fighters on Amonkhet into zombies, so why not corrupt and zombify the remaining gods? I guess we also get an answer as to why Bolas killed Bontu.
Since some of the story takes place on Amonkhet and there's a bridge from Amonkhet to Ravnica, I wonder if we'll see Hazoret in this block.

Guess no cause if the gods need to be dead and embalmed with lazotep to survive the travel, then going into the bridge could potentially be lethal
Each pair keeps the God's original color while also matching one of the Bolas Guilds.

You're a real dick, Bolas.

I thought they were biased to Blue?

HOOOOREEE SHET!
And just so this isn't spam, that is some seriously Bolas-y stuff to do. Can't wait to see what kind of cards they'll get.

Zombie gods may actually happen
Oh for those saying scarab not happen because liliana
Remember the trailer she decided enoughs enough so she turned the army against him so if liliana dies bolas has tezzert bridge up the scarab god
Guess no cause if the gods need to be dead and embalmed with lazotep to survive the travel, then going into the bridge could potentially be lethal

Hazoret is still on Amhonkhet with the rest of those that escaped the city and Bolas
