Corrected the tri-color math.. still kind of odd after adding dovin and nissa, I'm getting both white and black at 0.5 wich is obviously too low, one has to go up
Soo, based on what we know and just for the fun of It, I Will give It a try to predict Kaladesh BLOCK planeswalkers.
The idea is simple, we know the baseline is 5 planeswalkers per block, so that gives us, between KLD and AER about 5 or more planeswalkers. We sorta know some of the methodologíes used to choose them in cards as well, they try to keep the colores very well balanced, i will proceed with SOI block color balancing as an example, multicolored cards add .5 and monocolored add 1;
Jace; _ U _ _ _
Sorin: W _ B _ _
Liliana: _ _ B _ _
Nahiri: W _ _ R _
Arliin: _ _ _ R G
Tamiyo: W U _ _ G
Giving us; W = 1 U = 1 B = 1.5 R = 1 G = 0.5
So its pretty fit, tho not perfect, that's cool. Now Ill do the same with what we know from KLD so far, my guess is tezzeret is back with a card, he being esper or somewhere around that, maybe just WU or WB;
Chandra: _ _ _ R _
Shaeli: _ U _ R _
Tezzeret: _ U B _ _
Nissa: _ _ _ _ G
Dovin: W U _ _ _
W = 0.5 U = 1.5 B = 0.5 R = 1.5 G = 1
As of writing we are missing a green PW nor something to balance W B and G, maybe Nissa shows up (she is supposed to go get Chandra back) and we don't know yet Baal's color alignment or even if he has a card, my guess is Baal being B and maybe U or W, probably reds enemy colors, given the story, that also depends on Tez's color. I might be missing a sixth one tho..
So now we remain to know wich Tez or Dovin is UB and WU
