In C16, there will be 15 legends with partner. 5 ally colored, 5 enemy colored, and 5 more enemy colored generals thematically paired with their mythic. All of these legends will be characters from magic's past without cards.

Melek, Izzet Paragon
Oona, Queen of the Fae
Bruna, Light of Alabaster
Gisela, Blade of Goldnight

I would personally like a Taigam card. Could be all over the place at UX given his sultai-jeskai ambiguity. He could be the second UG general of the UBRG-deck.
He was Sultai->OJUTAI, not Jeskai. UGBW might make sense, but we already got that one.
Taigam was actually Jeskai > Run out of Jeskai for being a Jerk > Sultai > Time Travel Nonsense > Ojutai and never run out for being a Jerk. But that's not here nor there because there really isn't a good color to fit him in this set.
With the idea that the Mythic and Rare Enemies are linked, we only have White/Black and Black/Green really open.
- White Black feels like another good fit for Innistrad, finishing our Powerpuff girl line-up. Probably with an acolyte or apostle as the Rare.
- ...I wanna say Vraska lore is the right call for Golgari? I dunno, the other option is to dive more into Kamigawa. More Lorwyn Elves could happen too.
On the ally side of things we have White/Blue and Red/Green fully open.
- ...I have no idea where to go with White/Blue. Just, nothing comes to mind. Lorwyn Merfolk could have some space.
- Red/Green there are some extra Gruul clans to work with, whatever God predates Xenogos on Theros, and I guess something Zendikar because Zendikar.
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.

Why can't Taigam be White/Blue?
And I'm guessing the other Simic will be Theros, the other R/W from Zendikar, based on the idea that they're tied together. And we know both the U/R are Innistrad. So probably some New Phyrexia tossed in somewhere, Ravnica is always popular. Beyond that not too sure.

I'm sure people are pulling for Feather as well for RW.
I think they said that the two enemy-colored Partners are going to be related though, so IDK if we'll see that.

BG could be Colfenor and Gryffid, though their connection is a little less obvious (both knew Rhys).
I have no idea what kind of character would have a connection with Bruse, though my brother will laugh if it's an Ox.
The other GU will have something to do with Kruphix and Kydele.
Taigam could be WU, since he is Ojutai. Grand Arbiter Leonos II of the Azorius Senate is another candidate.
Among Gruul clan leaders, Narbulg Nine Fingers (Scab) and Nikya of the Old Ways (Zhur-Taa) are compelling RG choices.
