That soon eh? That's cool. Hopefully we get some good spoils on Christmas Day as "gifts" for the latest lore debacle that was War of the Spark and no substantial Theros story material.

It literally starts the 24th all previews start 24th and there is gonna be Card preview(s) on Christmas Day (depending how many are shown in the stream) 30th is when we get the normal pace of card reveals which is when everybody can start showing their preview cards on twitter/Facebook/YouTube and so on and so forth.
Technically it began when the gamespot article revealed Elspeth and Ashiok, which was followed by tweets confirming the nyx themed lands and the mechanics videos. We get more tomorrow, as others have said, but won’t pick up again in earnest until after the holidays

Currently Playing:
Standard - Some kind of control
Modern - UB Mill (casual)
EDH - Meren's Grave Shenanigans
Sel'rahc, Beneficial Scholar 1WUR
Legendary Creature - Human Wizard
Haste RU Draw 2 Cards, this creature deals 2 damage to each other creature you control. RW Choose Two - Target Creature gains First Strike, Lifelink, or Haste until end of turn. UW Choose One - Return Target Creature to the top of it's Owner's deck, or Creatures your Opponent controls can't attack this turn. This creature doesn't untap during your next untap step.

Nykthos will not be in the set, no Nykthos, no Gary, none of the cards that dominated last time. It doesn't really sell packs if the dominant Standard cards are reprints that you don't have to crack packs for. And nothing that was previously super strong. Desirable reprints come in expensive supplement products, with very few exceptions

yep, i was wrong, Wizards doesn't mind a card that just at face value is either 2 years of mono black devotion dominating, or having to ban ANOTHER Standard card. I was wrong about them reprinting it, but I maintain that it will prove to be a mistake.
also did anyone else notice how many of the spoilers are from official WotC sources? 20+ entries on the 'where to find them' page, and there's a good chance that translates to well over 50 cards. That feels really annoying, you know they could have found that many content creators who deserve a boost. Spoiler season is supposed to get the entire community involved, not just 'check various officials Wizards social media accounts for what could easily be the majority of the set. even the dump on the last day, somebody with like 200 followers but the enthusiasm to do it would probably be really excited to even get one of those commons. idk, it just bugs me

The numbers are a bit skewed because WotC showcased the ten Theme-Booster-exclusive-rares all at once.
Today there should be spoilers too. Whats goin on ?
The set is like 2.5 weeks from being fully spoiled and they’re dribbling out uncommons once a day. It’s embarrassing. Killing my enthusiasm for even Theros honestly.
I suppose we’re not getting one today? Ramin is probably awfully busy I imagine. What a mess
On the bright side, this should hopefully be the end of Wizards giving previews to people who aren't MtG content creators. The dude from Game of Thrones getting one bugged me, now, Ramin is great at his job, but it's getting to be the end of the day in Germany, he might miss his assigned post day....I just don't understand how they decide who gets one and who doesn't

I felt like this was going to happen when they first posted the schedule. He’s really not in the gaming network. I wouldn’t be surprised if he just forgot. It’s going to be annoying if it ended up being more draft chaff too. Assuming anyone posts it lol
