There is plenty of space in the list for at least 2-3 more Angels and the cleric seems to support the theme. Other colors are getting tools against flying creatures so I hope we will see more angels.
I saw a thread on here about this earlier....but I'm gonna say that I believe Tarmogoyf will be in this set.
It fits in the numbers crunch.
A mythic green card has not been spoiled yet.
It wouldn't reign supreme in the format....no evasion or quick abilities to pump besides surveil.
It would be a cool include in a set that seems to hit some nostalgia points with Leyline reprints.
The new boost to modern and increased availability to a very popular card.

I know the thread you're talking about. We can easily assume that there will be a Green Mythic with the naming convention Cavalier of... with a cost of 2GGG. That said, as I mentioned in the thread, it does not preclude Goyf from the set as the 16th mythic if we get one (which we should). As of yet, I'm not convinced enough of it to include it in the main post
EDIT: that thread has since been moved into Speculation, as there is not enough proof one way or another to make a determination

I think one thing we might be forgetting is the BaB promo is a wedge legend so that could easily add an extra mythic slot to the set since that cycle wont need 5 slots and then we can get Tarmogoyf in the set, or am I wrong on how the mythic slots work? does the Bab promo eat up a slot?

Buy-a-Box does not count as a mythic for the set (it is denoted by the +1 next to the mythic count in the OP). Also, the BaB promo is a Shard Legend, not a wedge legend.

I know we are not even at 1/3 of the cards, but looking at what was spoiled, most of them seem very random and not following any kind of cohesive theme.
Ok, we have elementals, but that's it for now.
Red has some goblins and that's it.
White has lifegain... On 3 cards so far + 1 angel that works with lifegain.
Blue, Black and Green still have nothing noteworthy in terms of themes.

So we have 258, 259 and 260 for lands slots, after Temples... Urza Tron plausible?
How dare you tease me like this.

I was looking at the multicolored breakdown. Yaruk at 220. I can see this going one of three ways:
1. We get the last 2 Mythic rares in multicolored and 4 uncommons to make 10 uncommons and 5 Mythic rares and complete both cycles. The multicolors would end after Yarok with this and we start artifacts at 221.
2. We get 5 more card in multicolored (I’m thinking rares since we have yet to see a multicolored Rare). Maybe we get a cycle of something else? I feel this would be unlikely though since I can’t see 5 cards after Yarok. That would mean 5 more cards that begin with Y or Z which would be unlikely in my opinion.
3. (VERY remote possibility) we get a hybrid section of 5 cards between Yarok and Golos. They could be hybrid enemy colors to go with wedges or something else. I don’t really see this happening but it’s definitely a possibility. Maro did say there was a twist somewhere (I doubt it’ll be that tho if it is).
Out of all these I think the first is more likely. I can see us getting a “mana rock” cycle or something of that nature.
On another note, new Omnath still fits the crunch for the Temur colored legendary!!!!
Nice, you got your Temur Omnath spoiled today.
Now only the Abzan legendary remains. No chance of it being an angel (oh well... At least there is the BaB promo which after a little while will be pretty cheap on the secondary market).
As for the 16th mythic, if the design was like the one for M19, we might get a double faced card again, even if not a sparker creature like Bolas was (it would steal the spotlight from Chandra).
Hoping for it, but not holding my breath.
I think I smell a Legendary Rare cycle for each monocolor. We had it last core set and we got a blue legendary creature and a black one at this point. I can see three other legendary monocolored creatures for green, white, and red.
There is plenty of space in the list for at least 2-3 more Angels and the cleric seems to support the theme. Other colors are getting tools against flying creatures so I hope we will see more angels.
Maro said the Cavaliers would be a cycle.
Wedge legends
Mono planeswalkers.
There’s 15, but Maro said there’s a twist elsewhere. So no mono white mythic angel at least.
It fits in the numbers crunch.

Nope. The BaB is a shard legend. Naya to be exact.

The twist was about the planeswalkers. It was the extra Chandras at Rare and Uncommon.
Well this set is becoming more and more a modern set hope not? Because it means more tron, but tron is not that of a issue in modern now...
If wotc wants a to make a new modern I guess this would be the time to reprint
