Having some creature type matters of tribal element also fits with one of the themes of modern horizons. I guess something like Cost reduction, +p/+t, and extra abilities based on the quantity of creatures types would be a start (with a limit)
A god that gains +p/+t for each creature type among creatures you control but with a cap (of say +7+7) could fit I guess.
See that makes sense and would be a cool way to go into the god development string even further. Like a goblin god will be as powerful as the goblins that worship it. Ok, maybe the odd human or non-goblin might but that's another story.
I personally think a god's stats and abilities should be only as powerful as the devotion of their followers. Because, in "real life," a god is only as potent as the number of people who believe in them.
So maybe a tie-in to devotion or # of creatures of a specific type and/or something else maybe? That'd be cool if we do go that route in the next (few) set(s).
I wouldn't be surprised if the next story arc is like an epilogue to the events that transpired in War. We have several fugitive planeswalkers on the run in a heated chase by some protagonists. It would make for an interesting post-war thriller before we move into the next chapter of the story.
It feels like a better segue than what they did with the Weatherlight story by its abrupt end at Apocalypse other than the X years later feeling we often see in story naration.
There's your traditional fantasy item found in most settings in this genre. Here's hoping we get a Magic Rope-type spell in the near future to go along with it
I think a plane inspired by D&D is more likely. That way they have more creative freedom.
If Legends' legendary creatures were the manifestations of designers' D&D characters, then I think this has substance, and I don't mean in a thorny armour capacity.
TBH Shards of Alara had that basic fantasy feeling so hopefully, whatever happens, it is reminiscent of that with the adventurous nature of Zendikar I's design.
Half a Realms Uncharted effect for creatures. No other restrictions. That's pretty good in EDH/casual formats Elsewhere I'm not so sure. Limited? Absolutely.
Please stop saying "it dies to removal" as an argument against a card. Pretty much all creatures die to removal at some point so this is no longer a valid statement.
Anywho.

Funny how it says it only has to attack and not deal combat damage. Declare attackers and then use things like Ebony Horse or something to that effect to remove it from combat.
Clunky yes but fun to try. And that's spectacular for a common. Very aggro-ish too for B.
They could put it in because Tarmo is dealt with much easier now and isn't quite the powerhouse it once was under Time Spiral/Lorwyn block standard. However that alone would be reason to inflate the pack price so there's your tradeoff.

Tribal gods. It could be a thing...

It'll be a nice addition to my Play-From-Exile deck that uses Cadaverous Bloom along with Eternal Scourge, Torrent Elemental and Misthollow Griffin to generate large amounts of mana to draw into Well of Knowledge to locate key cards and replay them from exile.

I want it strictly for the art. Everything else is gravy.

And there are your ten-land cycle (albeit at common) that someone was complaining about in an earlier thread.
That lich is good especially at uncommon. A 2/1 flyer cantrip is limited fodder but good limited fodder.
