Not even the paradise plane that Urza visited long ago is spared. On the other hand, they repelled an invasion back then, and they are more than ready to do it again, as it seems.
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.
Important note: Invasion of Moag is #237. Invasion of New Phyrexia is #239. That means there is one invasion of a plane between Moag and New Phyrexia.
I highly doubt we'll get Invasion of Mongseng, because of it being a slur. But I am absolutely stumped what else could be there. Invasion of Mountains and Seas???

Is Mongseng a slur? I thought they just decided it shouldn't be the name of a set, but were OK with it on cards, with the problem being Southeast Asians going "Hey, I know someone named Mongseng" rather than "How dare they say that word!"

I may have slightly misremembered. I can't find any source of WotC officially mentioning the slur thing, but they were a bit cagey about Mongseng not being used for example for Tarkir. It was pointed out by commenters though, mmh. I guess we'll see.
Still, it would be an incredibly odd choice to have a plane that's fairly close to Tarkir aesthetically, when there's so many more unique planes from planechase likely going without representation.
Leaving aside the planes that have been settings for magic sets, we only have space for 4 more "minor planes" and honestly, Belenon, Equilor, Fabacin, Iquatana, Ir, Kephalai, Luvion and Pyrulea are better choices than Mongseng... Or Karsus and Xerex for that matter.

Agreed, but if it's the only one that fits, seems more likely. Could also be a future preview plane, maybe?

"Invasion of New Capenna"? Or will that be "Invasion of Capenna" since that's officially the name of the plane (AFAIK)?

By my count we don't have any more room for an UR invasion.
It seems there are 4 invasions per colour, 2 uncommon and 2 rare*. Then 10 uncommon multicolour invasions, one for each 2-colour combination. That amounts to 30 invasions distributed across these cycles.
On top of these are 6 "wildcard" invasions (rare or mythic) to get up to 36 invasions (we know the number from one of the streams). We already have these 6: Shandalar, Alara, Tarkir, Ravnica, Tolvada and New Phyrexia.
What we're still missing is:
1 uncommon white
2 rare white (or 1 rare and 1 mythic)
1 uncommon blue
2 uncommon black
1 rare green Forgot we already got the Ixalan one
4 uncommon 2-coloured: RW, GU, WB and UB
This is all asuming there's no shenanigans going on like a lopsided distribution of battles among colours (or more lopsided than it is already.)
*Apparently black gets one rare and one mythic, instead of two rares, because the Innistrad one is ymthic and theres no space for an additional battle in black, unless white or blue get only 3 battles.
By the way, based on the number crunch, Wildfire is out, unless it is white, blue or black, all of which I highly doubt. Iquatana is also out unless it's white, black or green, which is also doubtful.
Edit: Sudden realization: The plane between Moag and New Phyrexia might be New Capenna. It'd be a bit of a misnomer, since the plane is supposedly called Capenna and only the city on it New Capenna, but that seems more likely to me than Mongseng.

To be fair New Capenna is the only part of Capenna that was not already conquered/destroyed by Phyrexians, so it kinda makes sense.
Oh, duh. Yeah, gotta be New Capenna. There's no space of "Invasion of Capenna" in the multicoloreds. I could see a monowhite too, I guess, but white/black makes the most sense to me.
Out of the planes we have seen in the set/story, minus those already show on battles cards we have;
Amonkhet
Eldraine
Kylem
New Capenna
Theros
Ulgrotha
Vyrn
So we have about four planes we don't know about yet. I def would prefer too see Invasion of Mountains and Seas, the little of the plane we saw through the globe decks was nifty.

Yup, Ulgrotha and Eldraine are already confirmed because we got the artworks and I assume, based on the artworks, that they are black.
Amonkhet, New Capenna and Theros are a given since we have a couple cards associated with them.
Vryn also seems semi-confirmed because we have two artworks featuring the mage-rings, so I assume Vryn gets an invasion too. Maybe the "Overloaded Mage-Rings" artwork is the backside of the invasion.
Based on my number crunch, my predictions are:
#20 Amonkhet
#22 Equilor
#23 Theros
#64 Vryn
#113 Eldraine
#116 Ulgrotha
#231 Arkhos
#235 Kylem
#238 New Capenna
#240 Pyrulea
Personally I wanna see Belenon and the Wind-Riddle Palaces are fairly recognizable, but I think Pyrulea is better aesthetically (and has a popular card associated with it), and Arkhos is too good a fit for a blue-black mill-oriented battle. And in white I figure they'd prioritize Equilor over Belenon.
Alternatively, Kylem is blue-black, Amonkhet red-white and then both Belenon and Equilor are in white. Mmh.
Just posting all of this now so I can brag about it later.
Well, the white Invasion of Belenon has just been spoiled, which throws a spanner into the works...

So I just hope there is still place for Equilor. But with the Eon Fog being the only info most people have about it, I would not be surprised if Equilor was blue.
Edit: Okay, I forgot Bloodhill Bastion, but for good reason - we said even back then that it makes no sense to be on Equilor.

Arkhos is a separate plane from Theros, but I put them into the Mongseng pile of planes that have been realized somewhere else and are less likely. I expect Azgol before Arkhos.
Belenon doesn't really change too much. Amonkhet could easily be red-white, Kylem blue-black and Belenon kicks out Arkhos.

I would count Ergamon to be the deepest, as it was first mentioned in Roreca's Tale in 1994.
But it was not featured ever since. Moag played a small role in Urza's journeys.
