You learn two crappy thinks about DKA in this article
1. Storywise, little has happened since INN. Sorin shows up, and the sets plot is summed up in that solitary point.
2. The art is significantly worse. What happened?
What are you talking about, the detail on almost every picture spoiled is some of the best art I've seen since Innistrad if not in magic history period.
Okay I love doing these so lets take it one by one.
1. Some Cleric, we had her already.
2. Human scared, not much to see
3. Bloody refection, maybe a new "bleeding" curse
4. Undead creature
5. Geist Rush maybe tokens(tri-corner hat =/= pirate)
6. Resurrection Mark type spell
7. Book Burning ?
8. Hellhound Rider, mid size devil creature
9. "Kill target undead" ? Probably too narrow
10. New Litch excited to see the twist even though I don't play litch cards
The last artwork however is NOT the last Planeswalker since we've known for some time that we are getting Sorirn Markov in some new form. Seems fairly obvious considering his freaking clan is on Innistrad.

The art looks amazing. Innistrad has been awesome, and I'm hoping Dark Ascension continues the excellence.
I'm gonna refrain from any speculating though... most speculation when only art is available is horribly misguided. I'm just ready for spoiler season to begin.
We know already that Delve was tried in this block but found it didn't work well with the rest of the graveyard themes (since it tends to leave you with an empty graveyard).

#1 is a vampire. Her eyes are the giveaway there, as well as her flesh color and the fact she's not wearing much on what is a "brr it's cold" plane.
#4 is probably a spirit lord. (Somehow I typed "spirate" originally; spirit pirate?)
None of the art here really thrills me. But I am getting some fun ideas of what type of cards they could be attributed to -- it wouldn't be a Magic set without the generic 'Group of People Trashing a Room' artwork. Faithless Looting likely.
"The humans now face a dark new twist in the fight against the fiends. It's not just that the wards and prayers no longer bind these creatures. Now even the bonds of death no longer hold. Apparently slain werewolves have begun to stagger back to their feet, their hunger only renewed by their seeming destruction."
Sounds a lot like Unearth. Could be anything, I suppose, sounds like Persist too, but Unearth would fit the mill-yourself mechanical theme quite well.
Do they ever have more than 1 returning mechanic per block? (not counting Time Spiral)?

It seems that the sorin has an enormous influence on Innistrad. and that his arrival will create previously unimaginable alliances
It tells you the demons and devils began to come in droves, and always using humans for their evil purposes (we will have more devils, I think)
humans who are part of the cults of demons also are popping up everywhere.
and humans are still trying to fight, learned to use their desperation to get stronger and not die (hint of the new skill? anyone?)
Sounds like Delve to me.

It's Faithless Looting, clearly.

Pretty much agree, though I do have to throw it out and ask if they're ghost pirates and not pirate ghost
The art for most are pretty good. I'm hoping #4 is some kind of Animate Dead card and I'm still hoping that this lich will be awesome.

Simple math kids:
Redhead + Tsundere = Win
Shimapan + Thigh Highs = Win
New symbol on the forehead of the zombie. Griselbrand?
1. Vampire chick intro pack rare would be my guess.
2. Some white limited combat trick.
3. Definitely some sort of black or red curse.
4. Reanimation Spell or something like Oversold Cemetery.
5. Spirit Lord possibly legendary probably pumps your dudes and gives them evasion or something
6. Looks like a removal spell could be wrong.
7. Has to be Faithless Looting I think it's not Book Burning.
8. Skirsdag Devil
9. Some sort of conditional removal spell like Victim of Night
10. Skeleton necromancer dude we already know about.
I'm probably way off there but it's fun to try and guess anyway.

Besides Liliana and Griselbrand...who else would be really evil on the plane?
