http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=mtgcom/feature/326 "The Izzet have their own theory, one that few pay attention to and even fewer take seriously: the source of the world's spiritual troubles lies in another world entirely, in some flaw in the very fabric of time and space itself. But the nature of the flaw, and how it can be fixed (if it can be fixed at all) is a question they have yet to answer. Whatever the truth, the fact remains that the dead are just as much a part of the world as those who still breathe." Seems like a lead in to Time Spiral. This also can explain how legends from Time and Space of the past can end up in Time Spiral. Anyone for an Angel Spirit?
"Wait, so old legends will be back in TS??" I'm not saying they are. Just that if the rumers are true about legends coming back, this seems like the explanasion they will use.
I see this as more of a link to Kamigawa than to Time Spiral.
Thank about it, on Kamigawa the veil between spirit world and human world is very thin, and actually breaks in setting of the block. On Ravnica, spirits roam free, and one theory is that a something on another plane causes spirits to walk around.
I really don't think I need to connect those dots. The Ravnican ghosts are the dead citizens of Ravnica, not from Dominaria....I don't know even how you think the allusion was to Time Spiral instead of Kamigawa....it just doesn't make sense as a TS allusion....

Dude, if that's true, they could do something that would be really wicked freaking awesome in the future: They couls start another finel block ( like Invasion ) where this trouble comes to a climax where all planes mix up: Kamigawa, Mirrodin, Ravnica, and alot of others, having a master enemy who started all of this. It could be Karona alongsided with the recovered Yawgmoth! Old legends coming back for the fight. Gerrard and even Urza as cards coming back from another plane and time to deal with this ultimate threat to all existance!
But this is just me, so... Well, I think it could be cool...

Didn't Urza finaly die in the story line? I swear I read that somewhere, oh well.

When I was young, the smallest trick of light,
Could catch my eye,
Then life was new and every new day,
I thought that I could fly.
I believed in what I hoped for,
And I hoped for things unseen,
I had wings and dreams could soar,
I just don't feel like flying anymore.
Who cares about dead Urza and dead Gerrard. Let them bring back UNdead Yawgmoth and restore focus to the colors again. I swear that I can't tell who's the good and who's the bad guy in this new storyline.

I don't think they'll reprint any legends. With the mild enchantment theme in Ravnica and the interblock design of Ravnica and Time Spiral: I am thinking that there will be auras that conform creatures into versions of old legends.
"the source of the world's spiritual troubles lies in another world entirely, in some flaw in the very fabric of time and space itself."
I believe that there is a connection between the "Schism" above the Utvara district and the "creature portals" in Mirrodin's Core that Memnarch used to populate the world of Mirrodin. Is it possible that the Vedalken and Loxodon are originally from Ravnica and Memnarch brought them to Mirrodin using the Schism and his "portals"?

Well put. But I still like the theory that the whole history of all planes comes together in the end. Creatures from Ravnica going to Mirrodin. Spirits in Kamigawa interfering in the Ravnica plain. Phyrexia oponing once again it's portals and releasing doom over all planes. That would be cool: Yawgmoth is so pissed now that he wants to take over not only Dominaria, but also all the existing planes in the Multiverse. Can you imagine, the Whole damn multiverse! That would be awesome!
I figure one of the experiments of the Izzet caused a vortex in time... I mean, they already have another extra-turn card. Perhaps in their effort to control time, something goes horribly wrong because they want answers RIGHT NOW.

Evil is boring. The universe is friendly. Life is on your side. Joy is your birthright. Cynicism is idiotic. Fear is a bad habit. Despair is lazy. In fact, all of creation wants you to succeed. Act as if the universe is a prodigious miracle created for your amusement and illumination. Assume that secret helpers are working behind the scenes to assist you in turning into the gorgeous masterpiece you were born to be. . . Life always gives you exactly what you need, exactly when you need it.
Well, seeing how those leaked cards had morph creatures with flanking I think we'll have an amazing hodgepodge of abilities and creature types all messing around with each other.
It would be a nice change to see some under-used keywords evolve a little, especially after Ravinca with its bloated 10 new keywords. Timespiral is going back to Domianra, or however you spell it, so its likely we'll see some older keywords pop up.
I think it is almost certain, that they will bring back old legends if they make a whole block around bringing back old abilities and mixing them up. Or maybe these Legends went to the ghost world and "learned some new tricks".
So they would reprint them but print updated versions (kind of like they did with Ertai).
Who cares about dead Urza and dead Gerrard. Let them bring back UNdead Yawgmoth and restore focus to the colors again. I swear that I can't tell who's the good and who's the bad guy in this new storyline.
I think thast sort of the point, there IS no bad guy or good guy, the guildpact prevents that.

Time Spiral is going to be sweet! Think about it: If we re correct, they ll bring back old people. That means the resurface of Toshi for instance. Also, theoretically, we could get people who havent even been born yet, from a far flung future where Dominaria is plunged into perpetual Civil War. Think about the possibilities!
With all the planes mixing, didnt Rath overlay Dominaria? Who knows, with the boundary between spirit and material gone in Kamigawa, the destruction of the main power of Ravnica, and this new Time flaw in Dominaria, there could be some serious tampering with the multiverse.
i'm sur that they'll return old stuff but that they changed... like angel of despair. I'would sincerly like a new version of either meddling mage or orim's chant... may my voice be heard...
hmmmm...there are alot of things in the MtG universe that could cause a Time Spiral. I've always wondered how far reaching the effects of Teferi's experimentation with phasing was. Weren't all of Mirrodin's souls trapped there until Memnarch was killed? I think they returned to their natural planes. Hopefully anyway. Also...remember Karona's planeswalking trip. She met Multani, Yawgmoth, Ixidor, Teferi, the Cho-Arrim, Karn and possibly Serra. When she died the souls of Phage(it reverted to Jeska), Akroma, and Zagorka(possible TS legend?) drifted away. Well I've read in some places that Jeska might still be alive and that Karn is teaching her about planeswalking. I also read that Phage had a baby *shudder*...

Indeed he died, but could be one Urza from the time before of his death, since it deals with both Space and Time.

But we really dont know whats casuing the "time spiral" yet, so i cant say that it has nothing to do with TS
If you use Frank Karsten`s Online Tech to see how popular a specific deck is, I just made it twice as efficient. You`re welcome.

It would explain how more... organic... creatures got into Mirrodin, and such. TS promises to be very... suprising.

My guess is they will make variations of Akroma and any others that showup in a similar fassion to Balthor the Stout vs Balthor the Defiled or Rorix Bladewing vs Bladewing the Risen.
