Considering they did not put full face lands in the BFZ intro decks for fear of them getting purchased by people looking for value I think it is a very safe bet that no value lands will be reprinted for precons
they didn't put full art lands in the original zendikar precons either.
There are ridiculously few enemy colored lands in the game. They're going to need to put a few good ones in these or one of tho things will happen; they'll all end up with an overwhelming number of basics, or a good chunk of the new card space will be sucked into land slots.

They will never put high value lands into precons because they defeat the purpose of making precons

Wouldn't be the first time they put high value cards into the set, although most of those were new cards.

Sorry
I meant reprint high value lands
The last two commander precons had obvious Legacy plants in them (True Name Nemesis and Containment Priest) so we should expect another one in C15
Lieutenant is a creature mechanic that only works if you have a commander. I'm sure they could slap it on to a bunch of things. Personally I'd rather they didn't, that way parasitic cards aren't printed so often.
Lieutenant doesn't bother me so much, but having that on a land making it useless most of the time seems like a bad deal.
I'd like to see an Orzhov Stax General. When X happens each player sacrifices (or chooses and exiles) Y. Kinda like Braids, Cabal Minion but slightly different somehow.
They are not going to promote Stax as an archetype in a Commander product. Too anti-social
It would be a pretty cool surprise to have the enemy fetches reprinted in these upcoming commander decks. At the very least it will sell a ton of decks.
At MSRP 34.99? We dont need a reason for shops to jack up the price while we wait for them to come into Targets.
If people are sick of reading about stuff just stop taking part. You have 100% control over what you read. Simic Ascendancy isn't going to get banned just because you didn't tell someone to shut up on the internet.
I have to say it is rather impressive that WotC can still keep information from being leaked. 5 weeks out (and a day), nothing but the original release info. Hope it's worth the wait.
somethings gotta break soon right? this is driving me nuts! hoping for a strong boros commander and a reprint (new art please) for jor kadeen, the prevailer

We probably won't be seeing anything for another two weeks, at least, but most likely for three weeks.

That seems excessive- it's been most of a month since we heard news of any sort.
I find it hard to believe they would wait three more weeks before giving us *anything*...

So, it seems like they usually give us a commander or two that are perfect fits for existing archetypes without commanders, or at least without strong commanders.
I am guessing we will see some stuff on the 19th or 26th of this month which is another full week to two out.
November 2nd would be like the latest they could do spoilers and still be spoiling as that would give them one week until cards are in the mail. I honestly would expect that the 26th of this month will be the start of spoils for this. Any more time than that and you have to really push the reprints which are less interesting. I think its normal that we haven't heard anything yet because we would be overriding some of the BFZ hype if we had stuff already. I think they could start doing spoilers as early as next week without really reducing any hype from the BFZ release. I suspect it will be at least another week though to give BFZ as much time to get its release done.

I have officially moved to MTGNexus. I just wanted to let people know as my response time to salvation decks being bumped is very hit or miss.
What archetypes could use a commander in the enemy pairs? I know we've talked about U/ getting an artifact commander. What else is there?
Myself and several others would like to see one or both of these from WB:
- A good Reanimator option (think Obzedat's Aid for inspiration)
- A much better Life Drain option than the Obzedats (think Debt to the Deathless or a better Pontiff of Blight)

I don't know you Guys, but I'm curious about those "Experience counters".
"~ enters the battlefield with X experience counters where X is the number of times you have cast ~ from the command zone." Then rest of the text box is like a level-up creature.
Not sure how they would fit all that on a card, but even if it's not that exactly, I'd bet they're doing something where the "face" commander of each deck gets better on subsequent castings from the Command Zone.
If they have the "counters remain even when changing zones" clause, experience counters could be added each time you cast the card. Then it only needs an ability that says, Remove an experience counter: Do the funky chicken dance. they could narrow the clause to being experience counter specific too in order to avoid something potentially busted.

Well MaRo said he's writing his preview article for C15 tomorrow (the 9th)
Anybody know how far ahead he writes his articles? That should give us a good idea of when to expect spoilers
Going from this article, it looks to be about 3 weeks plus a weekend. So if he is writing his preview article tomorrow, that would put its publishing to November 2nd.

The first set gave us cloning (Riku of Two Reflections), group hug (Zedruu the Greathearted), and others.
2013 gave us wheel-n-deal (Nekusar, the Mindrazer), blink (Roon of the Hidden Realm), and others.
Last year, Red got its artifact commander (Daretti, Scrap Savant).
