Regarding the flavor text, "Sentinelles" here means "Gatewatch", it's our group of heros that's overwhelmed ("Oath of the Gatewatch" translates to "Le Serment des Sentinelles" in french). Otherwise yeah, your translation is correct
At least there seems to be some kind of confirmation for a new Tamiyo card! (On the display, far right booster packs, the art looks like her, even from afar; same color palette, etc etc)
Still, even if Avacyn's gone and the flow of mana returns to its original form, let's not forget something: the cryptoliths. They're still bending the mana flow, so probably still affecting the angels' sanity (albeit probably less than when they were all connected to Avacyn). So we can't really know just how long it could take for them to revert to their original state of mind :/
Yes, they did have different numbers (001; 002 and 003/011, to be precise). So Multiple clues could be an option, yes. Maybe with different flavor texts, too?
Tamiyo will have some presence in the new block as she is directly referenced in the flavor text on one of the leaked cards. Specifically on Pore Over the Pages.
To be fair, they talk about her in a past tense manner. She could be dead. Or werewolved or vamp'd or zombified, or any other number of things. It was her notes they found, she likely won't show up til the second set I estimate.
I have a feeling he'll stumble on her research while exploring Jenrik's tower. Something like Jace wanted to speak with the two moon experts, in order to find out what's going on, only to discover the tower in ruins, or abandonned. (I would be extremely sad to see Tamiyo die )
if Wizards R&D are so concerned with making the game simple and accessible, why do they keep adding these keywords when a simple plain-english "This card has no color" will do? That way, new players don't have to learn extra unnecessary keywords.
That way they can reference "creatures with Devoid", and separate them from traditional colorless creatures, I guess
It seems the Sphinx is actually Alhammarret, Jace's master. So yeah, count on him being our U legendary creature (and the first mono U legendary Sphinx, by the way).
"Slain, possibly permanently. The chaos-seeking satyr Planeswalker Xenagos broke into the realm of the gods by whipping up a mighty revel, joining the ranks of the gods himself. Elspeth struck him down for his insolent crime, using the Godsend weapon to destroy the upstart satyr in a dramatic battle in Nyx. Xenagos's body tumbled out of Nyx and collapsed onto the ground of Theros, lifeless and defeated. Whether he perished utterly, as Heliod hoped, or whether his essence descended into Theros's Underworld, as mortals on Theros usually do, is unknown. So Xenagos's true fate is so far uncertain."
Yeah but Kiora appearng again in BfZ wouldn't be a smart choice: she left Zendikar to find sea creatures to fight against the Eldrazi. She does have the Bident, which may or may not help her find and control said creatures, but right now, I don't think she has enough giant shrimps to really make a difference?
She may appear, that wouldn't be surprising, but is it really the smartest choice?

Whenever you cast an Eldrazi creature spell converted mana cost 7 or greater, draw 2 cards.

He's from Vryn, actually.
Probably Alhammarret, Jace's mentor.

So this is a case of Schrödinger's god!
