When we learned more about behind the scene for the Bolas arc they said Dovin and Kaya had been created for the Ravnica 3/War of the Spark storyline and had been put into Kaladesh and Conspiracy Take the Crown to introduce them some before hand and I wondering if they did something similar with some of the other planeswalkers such as Dav, Yanggu, Vivien and Angrath for War of the Spark and future stories. Maro said Kasmina is a character pulled from a future storyline they decided to give a tease for. Sanderson said originally Dav was also a future character that was being in the process of being in a currently drafted story (wanna say they needed a mono-black character and rest was up to Sanderson) which might have been War of the Spark but might also been little intro set for a bigger story line*.
*like main set big not necessarily being big story arc.
I think you're on to something here.

I totally expect him to be in the 2022 Core Set, or perhaps a suppimental, non-standard set. I do not however expect him to be in any non-core, standard legal sets anytime soon as everythig coming out has been in the works for quite some time. He barely made it in WAR and that was only because they needed a new Mono B planeswalker with a discard theme, which Dav happened to fit perfectly.
Interestly in Maro's article today he talks about the struggle they had with trying to include a three-colour planeswalker before they settled upon Narset, and Nahiri as RWB was mentioned as a possibility. While this was a hypothetical exercize and doen't mean Nahiri is necessesarily in these colours per se, I think it does confirm the fact that WoTC still sees Nahiri as a revenge-bent and a possible antagonistic force. Black isn't necessarily evil I know, but it often ends up there and the fact that they considered it for Nahiri fortells her being in a dark place still. I totally expect her and/or Sorin to be antagonsits in the Zendikar Rising set, with thier grudge endangering Zendikar's recovery.
I know, grossly off-topic. Sorrynotsorry
