Some thoughts from this and what we say with the pathways;
-Looks like Kaldheim is somewhat like Theros and Kamigawa had might be made of a few sub-planes which would reflect the Norse thought of there being nine realms and connected by Yggdrasill.
-A few of the art background features what looks like branches, which I'm guessing is this worlds Yggdrasill. Also a lot of the world has ruins appearing in nature.
-The white lands have some sort of glowing thing in them, wonder what that is.
-The rock/metal theme feels right and fun even if its not my taste. Might a reason they brought Tibalt, as well as color balance with Kaya (WB), Tibalt (R), Niko (U) and Tyvar (G).

Thanks Urabrask and King in Yellow, I def missed that because I prob glossed over their names and focused on the new walkers. I knew of the pack pic of Tibalt, so it is nice to get the confirmation!
Now the big question is... Will it be actual METAL bands doing these previews? Or the non-metalhead's badly misshapen thoughts of what metal bands are?
Vikings is a 5-color tribe from one of the theme packs (ofcoarse so is warrior so probably warriors)
Which probably means Najeela, the Blade-Blossom is not gonna be the only option for warrior tribal after this set
They did a similar thing having a Ikoria monster theme pack so might not be any hint to tribal colors.

I think I've learned to treat Magic cards like baseball cards: keep 'em in a binder in numerical order, don't play with 'em, try to finish the set and just keep my head down.
I think its a shapeshifter going from that model of having a kinda similar mask/head. Maybe the mask stays the same but the bodies but change?

Please let it be actual metal bands! Now, will they only come from Scandinavia, or will some possibly hapless German/American/Japanese/Brazilian/etc. metal band get previews, too?

While I doubt it will be Cattle Decapitation level metal I'm sure they will find something in between them and Baby Metal. If I recall correctly members of Gwar have played m:tg. They would be awesome for a preview.
Those are nice lands with snow with them. Though doing a quick ctrl+f search didn't pull up snow mechanically being a feature. I just want an article that shows a snow land and/or snow mana symbol.

This week we will get some previews with the real seasons starting January 7.
Thanks to DarkNightCavalier from Heroes of the Plane Studios for this sick Signature.
Also, Tibalt officially confirmed and Oko is absent from the set.
Also also previews this week will apparently be made by music groups?
Uh, okay. Rock on, dudes!
now no more complaining about the pathways not having snow on most of them

Did they specifically state the snow mechanic was in the set, or are you exprapolating from the artwork?
Where was Tibalt confirmed? Did I miss that from the mothership articles?

"Kaya and Tibalt are back and more formidable than ever."

The same store who leak the commander decks also leaked the packs of Kaldheim.
And Tibalt's face was on one of them.
