I want him so terribly bad to be B/G, but I could very well see him as mono green or even G/W. If G/W represents the victims and hunters, it would make sense.
Even though its a dark world i dont see any telling that he's gonna be part black
Or any read indication of either R or W either,
even though GW is my hope.
The second art does make me hope he is the pre-release promo

Based on the fact that we are looking at a Garruk who is still under the effects of Lili's curse, there's no way in hell he isn't GB.
Sure looks like our favorite G-man took a turn for the darker, though I'll keep childishly hoping for an R/G version.
Also, hands in the air, who else can't stop seeing his white "bowtie" since first seeing the smaller pic?

It clearly seems a new Garruk but I feel a bit disappointed... Why creating then garruk 2.0 in m12 if there will be another version in Innistrad? I see it as a waste of space design ...
Imagine if the new Garruk in Innistrad was another planeswalker, there could be some interactions going on between the two that they didn't want to be going on at the same time.
Whoa ... Garruk looks so .. dignified, assertive, proud .. I like it.

Garruk cleans up quite well when he wants too. All he needs is a top hat and monocle. Although I still prefer the wildman look. Although it is kinda odd to release another Garruk so fast. I guess it will largely depend on which one will be more playable and see which one plummets in price.

To the people that say that a card needs to be a higher rarity because of Limited... I hate you guys so much. I present to you with this.
And naturally, I'm joining all the other lycanthropic enthusiasts in wishing for him to produce Werewolf tokens
On a final note before I shut my trap: It could just be the sorta-blurry pic, but the guy's headgear either looks a bit wrong or "out of place" with his new threads. Hm.

Everyone knows that good luck and good game are such insincere terms that any man who does not connect his right hook with the offender's jaw on the very utterance of such a phrase is no man I would consider as such.
This version of Garruk is GR or GW, not GB. Garruk is cured.
No, he's not. The most recently we've seen him in anything storyline-related was at the end of this comic, where he's still hunting Liliana and is still cursed.
The true mind can weather all the lies and illusions without being lost. The true heart can tough the poison of hatred without being harmed. Since beginning-less time, darkness thrives in the void but always yields to purifying light.
I invision a future where one is not mighty when he can silence a crowd with brutality,
but when he leaves them speechless with wisdom.

I think Garruk 2.0 is a core staple for at least m13+. The set needed a green walker and it was either hunter Garruk or wildspeaker. Nissa would mean planting her chosen in the core as well. They could have done that, but wanted flash for the new core set that was already bringing back titans. Garruk makes sense saleswise, especially if ISD block has little or no elves. So then, it's new or old Garruk in m12 no matter what. Better choice is new Garruk. That sells packs. Old Garruk doesn't. GB garruck could be cool and for everyone talking about two walkers of the same color in a set, we did get elspeth and venser together, making B liliana and GB Garruk not at all unique if those are indeed the colors they are.
Because conservative bias is a far, far worse thing. Liberal bias doesn't, statistically speaking, make people stupid. Conservative bias (or at least Fox's version of it) does.
It'll be interesting having Garruk be BG when none of the tribal colors are. It will probably help balance him because you'll either have to go BRG, or go without either Vampire or Werewolf tribal.
Ajani Vengeant style. One for the Set, one for Promo purposes.
I suspect Garruk will be in the 3rd set, but that's completely baseless speculation, grounded completely on a hunch. They just printed Garruk again, so 1st set might be too soon, 2nd set is Sorin, 3rd set though, is a good while from the last print, and we have nothing planned there yet.

Completely baseless though.
If he were in the third set, we wouldn't be seeing planeswalker art of him now on Innistrad products from UltraPro.
I dont think "soon" is relative with planeswalkers and core sets,
as long as the other versions are rotated out by the fall, which they are in this case
3 chandra's in current standard wasn't too soon,
i think 2 garruks in inn standard is exactly like having 2 in standard now

this is almost certainly in the Instradid. why would they let us have these pictures for Dark Ascension or "roll". Planeswalkers are usually kept secret for as long as possible.
Emmara is like the worst parts of Legends and Homelands got pregnant, aborted the fetus, tossed it in the trashcan, set it on fire and wrapped the corpse in a Dragon's Maze pack wrapper.

Ajani vs Bolas art.

It's a divider and the art used is the art from the Ajani vs. Bolas duel decks that are eventually coming out. Nothing new there.

No, more GB. That's something they haven't tried yet.
