Looking back at Dragon's Maze, all multicoloed split cards (like the BG one spoiled today) go together in the crunch, alphabetized. Presumably, they are ordering split cards white blue black red green multi, just like anything else. It's safe to assume that 210-214 are the WUBRG rare split cards, while 215-224 are the ten two-colored uncommons. We still have about 14 regular multicolored slots, meaning that we will likely see ten regular multicolored uncommons as usual, plus another 4 or 5 multicolored rares.
Today a card named Djeru's resolve was revealed. I'm wondering if we are either getting a white legendary creature or (and this may be a stretch) if the blue god is named Djeru. I'm leaning toward legendary creature though.
Edit: I actually found flavor text on another card for Djeru. Forgot name of it but it was a black Minotaur card. It's not the blue god but Djeru is probably a white legendary creature if it is in the set.
I think the split card section needs to be expanded to 15. We're probably getting the following cycles:
210 - Dusk // Dawn R
211 - Blue
212 - Black
213 - Red
214 - Green (Confirmed in mothership article today)
215 - Orzhov (White from hand, Black from yard)
216 - Izzet (Blue from hand, Red from yard)
217 - Destined // Lead U
218 - Onward // Victory U
219 - Simic (Green from hand, Blue from yard)
220 - Prepare // Fight R
221 - Azorius (Blue from hand, White from yard)
222 - Dimir (Black from hand, Blue from yard)
223 - Rakdos (Red from hand, Black from yard)
224 - Gruul (Green from hand, Red from yard)
Also just noticed Prepare // Fight is incorrectly listed as uncommon (it's rare).

This is basically confirmed. There's a monocolor rare cycle, allied rare cycle, and enemy uncommon cycle.

There was a post showing Ultra-Pro products that had the new Gideon art, the new Liliana art, and new Nissa art... for this reason it seems there will be a new Nissa in this set.
Here's the current list of Tokens. Can't really do any good number guesses yet, because we've yet to see many non-white Embalm cards, and those throw off the normal guesses.
Anointer Priest embalmed
1/1 White Cat with Lifelink
1/1 White Warrior with Vigilance
Sacred Cat embalmed
Temmet, Vizier of Naktamun embalmed (12/25)
Trueheart Duelist embalmed (13/25)
Unwavering Initiate embalmed
2/2 Blue Drake with Flying
1/1 Black Insect
4/2 Green Beast
3/3 Green Hippo
Gideon Emblem
Here's the current list of Tokens. Can't really do any good number guesses yet, because we've yet to see many non-white Embalm cards, and those throw off the normal guesses.
Already confirmed that all the Embalm tokens are white. From the original mechanic article.

I know that. What I meant was that, since the embalm tokens are white, the non-white cards that produce Embalm tokens can throw off the numbers.
For instance: We know that Trueheart Duelist and Unwavering Initiate are sequential, numbers 35/269 and 36/269 respectively. We know that Trueheart Duelist is number 13/25 on the tokens. What we don't know is if there are any blue (or other color) embalm cards that are alphabetically between T and U. That's what I meant by throwing off the numbers.
So with cruel reality can we expect to see 4 black mythics in this set? We got liliana, Bontu, and now cruel reality. I'm wondering if they'll move Razaketh to hour of devastation since I feel like 4 black mythics seems a little unbalanced at least to me anyway. Then again this is a graveyard set so who knows what will happen.

Given Cruel Reality I think we can safely say Razaketh will be in Hour of Devastation, along with Bolas. It is clear that the story of Amonkhet is set with Bolas being MIA and that his return is what everyone on Amonkhet is waiting for, striving to become one of the 'worthy' to survive the trials and be killed by Hazoret in order to be reawakened when Bolas returns.

Razaketh could still be a multicolored mythic or monocolored rare. From a storytelling perspective, it makes way more sense to get the fight with Razaketh out of the way in the set, then devote Hour of Devastation to Bolas alone, so I would be pretty surprised if they don't put Razaketh in this set somehow.
Just a heads up but Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of next I will be out of town with only my phone for editing this thread so if a mod could help with that next week I would be greatly appreciative

Looking at the Mythics, as we are done with week one of spoilers, we seven remaining to be revealed but we already know 4 of them:
Bontu - B
Oketra - W
Rhonas - G
Nissa - G
That leaves three mythics open. Black and White both have 3, meaning blue, red, and green theoretically could each one more mono mythic in order to ensure color equality.
How likely do you think this will be?
Also, any thoughts on what the remaining non-basic lands will be?

I'm thinking
5 uncommon land cycle
That leaves one which could be a Mythic or at least rare
Looks like 3_4 more rares in each color BLACK only has one so far so they would make up the imbalance
2-3 more rare multicolor VIZIER Rares
Are we confirmed Nissa is in AMK? Could she be in HOUR I know she's in the block but 3 Gatewatch right of the bat? Would be disappointing.
Where's Razaketh? Did they abandon that line...Or get caught up in the Gideon god worship then dissent and trials? He fits but that would make B heavy mythics or maybe he's a rare but that seems unlikely. I agree having to split Hour of devastation (a smaller set mind you) between him and Bolas might dilute it
I like the cards and flavor but power level may be more timid and slower this block unless some really cool surprises come next week

I would not be socked to see one of those 3 colors not get another so they can have a colorless or multicolor mythic in that slot, with the possibility of making up for it in Hour. my bet would be red because I expect Bolas will bring some red weapon in Hour

Project Booster Fun makes it less fun to open a booster.
Scans of pages from the artbook show art from an Aftermath card named Spring//Mind. Either or (211 or 219).

And...
Look at the flavor
So that... is the name of the crocodile god.
My guess would be 5 monocolored and 5 dual-colored Split Cards.
