Innistrad is more or less back to "normal". Eldrazi are just a bad memory, but Avacyn's gone, nights are getting longer an the people are reverting to old ways to survive (basically paganism, nature rituals, etc...). The werewolves are getting "loony".
First multicolor flashback cards (an flashback's back)
Wrenn is present and indeed has a treefolk #7 now. Arlinn Kord is in the set (obviously). The identity of the Kamigawa-looking lady was not shown, and neither had any werewolves.
There are new fullart "Eternal Night" lands. Available in foil, in all kinds of boosters.

Champion of the Perished just might provide the final push to make Aggro Zombies a thing in modern. They already have beef, lords, walking disruption in Tidehollow Sculler...
Infernal Grasp might be the best 2-drop Black removal card out of all of the rest of its kind. Two mana and two life? To get rid of anything without Indestructible or Hexproof? Sign me up.
No werewolf commander deck. Instead it's zombies and humans.
Exactly. As good as that removal spell and new surveil card is, I don’t give a ***** about anything from Midnight Hunt until I see some werewolves. And it’s incredibly silly to hold back on that in any way.
The black and white full art lands are pretty cool tho

They explicitly said at the very beginning that we are not seeing any werewolves in this stream. Because they did again something cool with them and cannot show it yet.

We have also been told through the years that there is some issues related to the printing process with pre-con and adding in double face cards, which is why we never got a werewolf commander deck despite the want for a werewolf commander nor any non-token double face cards has been put in a pre-con.

Pretty weird there isn't a werewolf tribal commander deck in midnight hunt, no? I thought folks were clamoring for a "true" werewolf tribal legend (disappointed in the non-lord one from shadows/eldritch). I'm guessing we still get a tribal werewolf lord legend in the set, though.
We've already had spirit and vampire tribal decks, but I'm sure they couldn't not give us a new vampire tribal deck at least with crimson vow. And maybe the zombie tribal deck is actually a more broad "undead tribal" considering some more recent undead lords have boosted more than just zombies.

I mean, that would certainly be a neat thing to have happen. I kind of doubt it though given part of why it happened is they don't want Innistrad to change too far from it's horror stuff.

I enjoyed the contrast of the church vs. darkness that could never be conquered but only diverted. The idea of Avacyn as never truly succeeding and humans a livestock was its own horror.

Anyway, where is Sigarda in all this?
Probably the one that found and/or re-taught all the "pagan rituals" in the first place.
I just love how the Coven/Midsommar/Burning Man route makes green-white Humans themselves suspicious and Horror-themed.

Quote from Conuly »
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.
Could we not see one or two DFC that flip into an Eldrazi Werewolf when a full moon is out? Just a thought.

Consider is Opt with surveil instead of scry.

Consider is going to be one heck of a role player, as fair U/X decks are more likely to want cards in the graveyard instead of their library (e.g. Murktide Regent, Dragon's Rage Channeler, Snapcaster Mage).

Infernal Grasp can end up being Dismember's brother.
But dang that artttttttttt. I LOVE the pagan/Shakespearean feeling of the flavouurrrrr. Aghhhh good thing I started a new job 👍

No werewolf previews.

The GW deck sounds +1/+1 counter themed more so than humans so it will I suspect have some of both.

remember the leaked packaging of innistrad that’s real now the wrenn art on the card matches one of those pack arts perfectly

Agree - between these and the new strictly-better shock, they seem to be invalidating a lot of classic staples.
Is Infernal Grasp the best "doom blade" ever?

While unlikely in these two sets we could in the future see her bring about the next generation of Innistrad angels to replaces the ones lost.
