Host of Gluttony3BG
Creature - Demon (R)
Flying
Sacrifice another creature: Put a +1/+1 counter onto Host of Gluttony.
3/3 "I consider each member of the Host of Gluttony to be my childs. My sweet, sweet delicious childs." -Mother Peshe, elder demon
Host of Greed3UB
Creature - Demon (R)
Flying T: Target player reveals his or her hand. You may choose a card revealed this way and play it as though it had flash.
5/3 They are the most solitary of the seven, 'host' being a purely decorative title, for fear that they would steal from one another. No one is saying it is an irrational fear.
Host of Envy3GW
Creature - Angel (R)
Flying
Whenever another player gains two or more life, you gain 1 life.
Whenever a non-token creature enters the battlefield under another player's control, create a 1/1 green Saproling creature token.
3/5 A greedy person merely takes, while an envious person must stew in their desires.
Let us now be speaking of tribes for the set being called Commander 2017, yeah?
The dragons appear to be taking up the big stompy play style, so I think we can rule out other big stompy tribes such as Giant, Octopus, Wurm, Leviathan, Kraken, and Sea Serpent.
What play styles go with what tribes?
Graveyard shenanigans? See Zombie, Spirit, Ooze, or Insect.
Artifacts matter? Let's go Artificer, Golem, Myr, or Kor.
Hard aggro? Got to be Warrior, Soldier, or Knight.
Counters? Literally any tribe fits, however, Hydra, Fungus, and Mutant are dependent on that play style.
Life-Gain? Better be Cleric, Vampire, or Angel.

Host of Lust4BR
Creature - Demon (R)
Flying, haste
Whenever Host of Lust becomes blocked, you may return it to its owner's hand. If you do, gain control of target creature until end of turn. That creature is tapped and attacking.
3/3 "You say it's strange that the demons of this world look so much like its angels? I find it more strange that the demons of other worlds prefer to be gruesome and intimidating when its quite obvious you catch more flies with honey." -Nacl, Don of the Spice-Rack Gang
I see talk of Ajani going back to Dominaria and I have to ask, so please tell me if I'm wrong. Isn't Dominaria still closed off? I thought PWs couldn't walk back there because something had closed it off.
Dominaria was only closed off during the Shard of Twelve Worlds era. It stopped being closed off at the end of the Ice Age set.
Host of Pride3RW
Creature - Angel (R)
Flying, vigilance
Whenever a source an opponent controls deals damage to you or Host of Pride, Host of Pride deals 2 damage to that source's controller, then deals 4 damage to that source if it's a creature or planeswalker.
3/3 "This plane, it reaches inside of you and pulls out all of your darkest, immoral desires" explained Darus. "Is that why you've stripped down to a breechcloth and have your wings flared out like a peacock?" quipped Ondeze.
Possessive Wrath1RR
Tribal Sorcery - Dragon (M)
Possessive Wrath deals 4 damage to each opponent for each non-token permanent he or she controls that you own. It can't be prevented. "Never steal from a dragon! Never! You'll die if you do; you'll die, and so will everyone standing between you two."
Forging Pools2R
Enchantment - Aura (U)
Enchant mountain
Enchanted land has "T: This deals 1 damage to target creature. At the beginning of the next end step, put a +1/+1 counter onto that permanent if it's an artifact, Dragon, or Elemental." "Ah, nothing like a refreshing dip in molten lava."
Now we'll finally have definite proof as to when the freaking Mending happened. In Alara block they said it was a century ago, then in Scars block they backtracked and said its only been about a decade, but then the Amonkhet story doesn't make sense unless it was a century ago since Bolas couldn't have subjugated an entire plane and established an entire culture around himself in a mere decade because he was nothing more than a disembodied spirit trapped in the time rifts before he tricked Venser into freeing him. Speaking of Venser, that's another issue; if the Mending was a century ago, how did he not age but Liliana did. Was it an aftereffect of walking into a time-rift? Does that mean Teferi and Radha are both ageless too? I hope so.
Even if a hundred years have passed since the Mending, the following characters should still be alive on Dominaria and I want cards for them all:
-Karn
-Jhoira
-Squee
-Jodah (especially Jodah!)
-Multani (Possibly still comatose from being used to close the Yavimaya time-rift)
-Teferi (if time-rift exposure explains Venser's youth)
-Radha (if time-rift exposure explains Venser's youth)
I also want to see slivers (not predaliens), I want to see kavu, I want to see cephalids errata'd to be octopus, I want kobolds, I want green cat warriors, I want to see where the heck Guff's library full of omniscient, reality bending books is located, and I want a lot of other things but my rambling has gone on long enough.
I like kindle-esque spells, so my favorite card is Diligent Farmhand for being the only card that enables X to equal more than what would normally be allowed.
