Well the simic themed pack has a picture of speaker zegna, but I seriously doubt that there's any significance to this. If simic turns out to be extremely powerful then I would probably still consider it coincidence. Wotc normally doesn't know exactly what is going to become powerful in any given format except with obviously op cards, like snapcaster Mage.

Thanks to Heroes of the Plane Studios for the awesome sig!
I personally prefer 75 islands. There is nothing than the look on your opponents face once they start trying to play around your counter magic and you know you're sitting on a deck full of islands and nothing else.
It also allows you to board in 15 cards and completely mess with their head between the boarded games.
They did it with Niv-Mizzet instead of the guildmage for RTR. It's just the guilds players really like.
Disagree. I think he's onto something. Niv-Mizzet is by far the most important dude in RTR. Although we don't know the details, he's clearly directing the major activity on Ravnica. Perhaps Zegana or the merfolk are instrumental in the storyline? But how?

Cuz the whole world didn't know they even existed until 10-20 years ago?

You only think that because it's what Lazav wants people to think.
He's even gone so far as to name the final set "Dragon's Maze" in order to steal attention away from what he's planning. IN THE SECRET FOURTH SET

My assumption is that the art was hard to crop. Chase Stone loves to abuse the use of light and shadows in his arts. And, my guess, this is why our little friend Zameck Guildmage won't figure out on boosters. Not that I should complain of, because, the same way that Chase designed that mage in an awesome way, so did Murai with Zegana.

Nothing. All I want is Heroes vs. Monsters spoilers.
I believe the reason behind these decisions is that they pick out the particular guild whose guild leader will have/has had a significant impact on the story since last time around. Niv-Mizzet is plotting an entire expansion on his own, it seems, and Zegana came around and re-established the Simic guild in its entirety.

The awesome-est MTG webcomic out there. Go check it out!
RTR product is blue, GTC product is red, and then there is Dragon's Maze, which has all builds and is probably about Niv. any chance DGM product will be red/blue?

Man I hope you're right. If the nature of the Simic's scheme last time around is any indicator this one will be a doozy. I'm sorta hoping the referred to 'gatecrash' is an attempt by the simic to open a planar portal to a world of pure water and flood Ravnica. Even plays on the meaning of gate-crash.
They did this with Izzet in RTR. It may be isolating a guild that will play a big role in the storyline.

But if wishes were horses I'd be a rich rancher.
Or it could be that the Gates are the gateways to the guilds, and the faction known as the Gateless(read, "guildless") are fed up with being looked down on and lorded over and are crashing the party in a riot?
