They went too far with the masterpieces by putting them into every set, so they pulled back and decided to save them for special occasions. Here we are, special occasion central. Magic's home plane on its 25th anniversary.
That plan worked well...
I heard a rumor that they are just going to do them in Masters product since they have started to lose their shine.
After reading the article just now I kinda wish they kept her name Rumiko actually. Regardless, can't wait to get this card.
Tetsuko is a nickname used for female train nerds in Japan. Rumiko would have been better. And the haircut is awful. She looks like some bland podcaster.
Planeswealker deck planeswalkers and special cards have the same numbering, so it's infinitely more likely that they are part of that kind of product.
The FAQ explicitly stated it was for buy-a-box:
The Dominaria set contains 269 cards (20 basic land, 101 common, 80 uncommon, 53 rare, and 15 mythic rare) that appear in booster packs, plus 10 cards available only in Dominaria Planeswalker Decks and 1 unique promotional card (available as part of the Dominaria in-store Buy-a-Box promotion
I feel it's mean spirited to play cards that are this severe that only target one player.
It would be like playing Identity Crisis in a multiplayer EDH game. Just feels especially mean.
There are "mean-spirited" cards that hit all players. Symmetrical or "each opponent" cards can be feel bad or draw games out too.
Someone could be a jerk with this card, but there are lots of cards like that. The "social contract" should stop you from being a jerk. Targeted removal has a place in EDH and so do cards that target a player. It's all how you use it.
Considering Overwhelming Splendor costs 6WW at the bare minimum it should affect all opponents. EDH players don't want to pay 8 mana for one card that hates out one player. I can cast In Garruk's Wake for one more mana. Mark Rosewater really needs to start playing EDH.
On an somewhat related note, I really wish there were more ways to reanimate enchantments.
But blinking this could be fun. If this hit all opponents it would really put a target on you. Targeting one player can be good if someone is getting out of hand.

I didn't think you could read that any other way, but the number confirms it for sure.
Don't really like the new legendary frame.
I think it will be PC first, then released to other platforms.

Maybe if it was only in your graveyard. Have they ever made a card with unconditional trample and P/T based on lands in play?
I do like how cycling a desert can be a combat trick.
