Can anybody glimpse more of what the elf in the binder next to Liesa is doing?
The only thing I could make out:
Rootweaver Druid 2G
Creature - Elf Druid
When enters the battlefield search your library for three basic land cards on put them onto the battlefield.
2/1
Not sure if it is only the player who gets to search their library, or everyone. The second part must be some kind of drawback, if it is only the player who gets to search their library.
New elf druids were the thing I was most excited for in this set. I don't suppose with the slightly clearer binder pictures, that any kind soul could please tell me what this elf druid does?
Hard to see everything but I think the Spinxs reads as follows:
Eligeth, Augur of the Crossroads 4UU
Legendary Creature - Sphinx
If you would look at a number of cards with scry, instead draw that many cards
Partner
5/6
Wow. This makes a lot of cards ridiculous very fast!

Well I looked the binder image. It is still *****ty.
What I got:
Wenn der Wurzelweber Druide in Spiel kommt, kann _____ Gegner seine Bibliothek nach bis zu drei Standardland-Karten durchsuchen. Jede dieser Spieler _____ der eine Karte
The rest is just blurry... and I am not sure if the part I got is right... If it is right than it seems like you opponents are getting the lands and after that you get a bonus for each land they took. I wouldn't put my hand into the fire but I guess it will be a Collective Voyage variant on etb.

If that's even remotely true thats amazing
Edit: I looked up the German printing of Collective Voyage on scryfall and I see a similar templating to the words so I think you're definitely onto something
Tevesh Szat - really do not like that they made a planeswalker commander that wins the game when it ults. None of the previous ones won the game with their ults - they gave huge advantages but you had to find synergies. This guy seems like he will be annoying. Spam tokens to block, play interaction on evasive attackers, then ult to steal 3 commanders.
How exactly is stealing 3 creatures winning the game? The most annoying part here seems to be his ability to force out creatures from the command zone and thus ticking up the command tax of your opponents commanders. And even that takes at least four turns of protecting it (without proliferate shenanigans).
Most people build around their commanders. So when they can't play their commanders their decks are much weaker. Stealing 3 commanders should be a big enough swing to win you the game, even if they don't help you that much.
I know there are stronger ults than this but I think this is the most game-winning of the PW ults from the command zone so far. I play some of the PW commanders and I don't even try to ult them.

Daretti ult is pretty much always a Mindslaver lock.
Teferi usually combos out the turn he gets his ult (usually multiple ults)
Windgrace's ultimate will pretty frequently be better than nabbing a few random legends that likely don't synergize with your deck, and it's not like they can't get them back.
Usually in commander, if you're ulting almost any planeswalker without proliferate or doubling season, you already won.
EDIT: Not to say that this isn't a string ult, I just don't think it's an autowin or overpowered.
I know people are complaining about partner and plabeswalker commanders, but I am really excited for this set. The drafting aspect with weird partners sounds super cool, and I think it will be a fun way for some EDH players to break out of their usual habits of playing overpowered cEDH stuff as well as their typical strategies and instead play some weird decks.
As for Partner returning, I have mixed feelings as I know how busted some of the old combinations are, but I also know how fun it is to mix and match partners to make some fun and wonky combinations. I guess I choose to not play cEDH so I get to avoid the really dreadful partner combos.
Also, did someone mention that they were also releasing Commander Precons with this set? Or was that just speculation?

Stop labeling good cards as cedh. Cedh is a particular archetype not a set of cards. Way to often people label efficiency as cedh and frankly it just needs to stop. All it does is increase the competitive vs. casual divide and validate sloppy deck building.
This also wont do that for the people who optimize. They just wont play those weird cards. Theyll still pick and choose the best. People who prefer weird will still pick weird.
The more wotc aims their sights at edh the more youre going to have to accept those overpowered cards. The more of them printed the easier everyone accesses them. The more they aim for a reliable strategy.
Im just sick to death of "casuals" calling every good card cedh tryharding just because it foils their 36 card beeble combo

Yes. There are Precons. In the vein of the Zendikar Rising ones. Only like three exclusive cards.
Since I’ve yet to meet a single other person who knows how to properly pronounce “Gisela,”
let me waste my time by pointing out that “Liese” is pronounced “LEEza,”
not “Lisa” or “Liza”.
Not tooting my own here, just basing it on my experience teaching HS English, I believe my way of spelling is correct: Ji-sel-luh, w/ an "s" that's almost a "z."
On a different thought; will the leaked cards get added to the card gallery only after they are confirmed correct? I don't think we wait for clear, not-small-in-scale art as I've seen cards added w/o the art.
I'll point out that Gisela, Blade of Goldnight is "Sela Goldnachtschwert" in German. Actually the name Gisela in German would be hilarious, it sounds like an old grandma sitting in her rocking chair and knitting...
Therefore, I deem it entirely possible that the new angel has a somewhat different name in English.
