Okay, I watched the video to make sure I wasn't missing anything, and you guys have made a false assumption. The "Ghost of ____" card does not need to use the text after the comma. In the video, the example he gave was, "If it were Squee, it would be,'Ghost of Squee.'" Therefore since he didn't say it would be, "Ghost of Squee, the Immortal," we should assume that the title of the legendary creature will be left off.
That means, "Ghost of Agrus Kos," or, "Ghost of Yawgmoth" or many other variations are possible.

Protection from reason (Decadent_Creed can't be blocked, targeted, dealt damage, or enchanted by reason.)
Ghost of Argus Kos would make sense. He was pretty important to the original Ravnica story, and did in fact become a ghost in the lore. Also Szasdek became a ghost as well. Both would make interesting legends if they returned!
Also, I love the idea someone mentioned; "You control your opponents while they have no cards in hand." I could totally see some weird Mastermind Cult leader or Cthulhu like legend.

I think this is the least likely of the guesses so far. It just creates way too many weird situations where a player casts the last card in hand and now it requires a choice to be made on resolution. Or, hell, choices made during casting like targets and such since the very first thing that happens is the spell is put onto the stack so every decision would now be made by someone else.
I can't wait to see what the actual card ends up being though. Not really a fan of the effects in general, but if it is a tough enough hoop to jump through, I could see it being interesting (even if it isn't all that much fun in practice).
"Ghost of Agrus Kos" makes perfect sense and fits the clue. It doesn't need to have a title from a previous card, just the name of a legendary creature previously featured on a card.
Yup, too many hyperfixated on the notion it has to be ghost of and then exact existing legendaru card name, but it doesnt at all
My money is on agrus kos too
Hes also the most obvious option from the story. No other existing legendary card has existed in the story as a ghost after death so it really doesnt make sense for it to be anyone else
Clue #3 seems interesting. What kind of drawback could balance a Worst Fears for all opponents and in a permanent's Continuous effect? My first thought would be something like Underworld Breach, aka. a permanent with a spell-like effect that sacs itself after a while, but maybe it's something super narrow, like "You control your opponents while X is being targeted by a spell" or something.

Heck, every day I wake up, I don't go out and kill people - and I'm rewarded by not having legions of enemies! Amazing how that works.
Although ninjas are experts of camouflage and concealment, they are actually horrible liars. This means that no matter where you are, you can shout out, “Are there any ninjas here?” and if there’s a ninja within earshot, he’ll be compelled to respond.
I would love the bathing beauties by seb. I hope they continue to utilize mtgo art - I would love the red elemental/blue elemental, Pyro and hydroblast, elvish spirit guide (bad fit for this product), quirion rangers and several others.
why do people keep pushing this idea that the ghost of card has to be the ghost of a... ghost?
i just don't understand it. karlov is already a ghost, does it make sense to have a ghost of karlov if he's already a ghost?
It's a joke! A humorous play on words... its where the comedy comes in. You see, they're suggesting that a previous character be made a ghost but they've already been a gho... nah... He gets it.
Am I the only one hoping the Ghost card is going to be Ghost of Balthier, so we get all three incarnations of the poor dwarf?
Also man I really hope that reprint with the online-only art is Elvish Spirit Guide. I mean, yeah the Seb stuff is cool, and there are a lot of really, really good pulls from the list of MTO-only art, but I just want a foil ESG. Thing hasn't seen print in, like, 25 years. C'mon Wizards. Put the lady in foil already.

“You control opponents while they have no cards in hand”?
“You control opponents while you have exactly 1 life.”?
“You control opponents while there are no cards in your library”?
there are certain effects I can imagine:
You control opponents while they are on extra turns?
1 is Ghost of Agrus Kos imho. Maybe Jeskai.
2 don't know
3 sultai legend with "You control your opponents while they have 10 poison counters and don't lose the game for having 10 poison counters" damn i wish
4 confirmed monarch or we can expect something else?
5 we saw them. Meh
6.Pheldagryff????

How i feel about competitive players and casual players in EDH: The competitive are german tourists, the casual are italian tourists, both in a italian beach. The italians asking themselves "why are the germans here?" make a legitimate question, the answer is because the beach is beautiful, no matter the country you came from. The italians wanting to ban the germans are dumb, because if the germans pay for their stay and follow the rules like everyone else, they have the right to be in the beach. Hovewer, if the germans started to ask themselves "why are the italians here?"... they would be dumb as hell.

That idea would be so cool and it would be strong enough to even build decks around

I do think that sounds cool, but I could easily see it being: You control opponents while they declare blockers. The card would then have reminder text pointing out that you can't usually activate mana abillities while doing so (unless blocking for some reason costs mana). Note that it is similar to heathstone, which I could imagien WOTC wanting to try.
That said, if it is a common one like this, I guess one of the main annoyances is that you can see their cards while doing this...

If it did have a non-godzila art in magic online then it could be the hinted card as we only have Zilortha as a buy a box card with the godzilla skin

(Ghost of Karlov actually seems possible)
OMFG... Stasis?!?!?
I’ve been waiting on a new version, like, *forever*!
(I suppose that’s very fitting all things considered)
I’d love to think that’s the card, but they seem to want to forget it ever existed.
I guess we did get Winter Orb in EMA, so maaaaaaaaayyybeee?
Sterling Grove's online art has been printed once, as a judge promo, so it's not it.
i really wish sterling grove Was possible but it’s not
we got that Art as a judge promo
