I personally think they'll add--or make a variant of--Absorb X to represent THAC0. I would also expect Level Up to make an appearance because as a set representing an enormous RPG platform like this it makes sense to implement it either as is or another way, however that may be.

Now that Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman have kissed & made up with WOTC, maybe in the future, instead of the Further Adventures in the Forgotten Realms, we'll get Adventures of Dragonlance, so that we can get Raistlin, Sturm, Tanis & the rest. Then Wizards can continue to add to the confusion of Kithkin, Halflings & Hobbits by having Kender (Tasslehoff).
* 1 Draft Booster (and Bundle) featuring Drizzt Do'Urden and Guenhwyvar
* 3(!) Set Boosters, featuring unknown (for me), mind flayer and a blue dragon
I should tell you the gentlemen with the yellow birds if that's you unknown
even its usually a old man in his form with 7 canaries...its probably bahamut in human form
The Wizards Summer of Legend article semi-implies that Bahamut is a lock for AFR in "(You'll have to wait to see how we handled the other half.)", and I think Wizards said in another article that Strixhaven is the last set of the year with MDFCs, so I assume it's not too much of a stretch to assume that the gentleman-with-yellow-birds pic is for the front side of a transforming DFC with Dragon Bahamut as the back side. (The gentleman is notably a platinum blonde, which helps that case.)
A mechanic where you can choose good-neutral-evil would be nice.
That's a cool idea and very possible, Character Alignments are some of the most resonant aspects of D&D in the sense even those that never played it recognize it from those popular fan-made 3x3 alignment charts and fictional characters.
Don't think there's enough design space for an entire mechanic though, but I could see a cycle akin to the Siege cycle of Khans/Dragons choices. Maybe Sorceries with 3 effects with 1 that benefits everyone a lot, 1 "normal" effect that affects only you and 1 "boosted" effect with a hefty drawback.

Twitch has another batch of card reveals on 5/20.
|| UW Jace, Vyn's Prodigy UW || UG Kenessos, Priest of Thassa (feat. Arixmethes) UG ||
Cards I still want to see created:
|| Olantin, Lost City || Pavios and Thanasis || Choryu ||
i still have no interest in this set.
i'll play d&d when i want to d&d, it doesn't need to bleed into magic.
