Went back a few pages and didn't see. Did they list the guild leaders for each pack on the prerelease.

Lotleth Troll is interesting, but probably not my style. I like the Gravejumper better.

I'm starting to think this is gonna be one of the craziest sets of OP'd magic cards of all time. I can't stop thinking about how insane the few cards we've seen so far are

I love how each guild is OP. I truly think that in a spike utopia, I'd love to live in, the more insanely playable and powerful cards that exist, the more the line between "tier 1 deck" blurs. The more home brew that can exist the better, because the difference between top tier and "trash" will be the person playing the deck.

What cards are OP? New jank Jace?

The current meta is a couple of decks, probably 10. It's not Caw-Go or Stoneblade era magic (which represents one of the lowest points in Meta history). But it's not what could be referred to as "rich". If all these cards are OP, but don't really converge color-wise, we will have a richer meta comprised of more cards were "comfortable" playing as opposed to "having" to play because those are strictly the best cards.

If the Magic triforce works, it works. We could find our way into a meta as rich and healthy as Legacy. Optimism is on overdrive for me! I love all of the spoiled cards, with the exception of new Jace, the playability and benefits are incredible.

Even the new guild leaders are equivalent to the Titans, they reward guild play dual color playstyle as opposed to mono playstyle.

First question: Rakdos's Return, the new Miz, Dreadbore, a whole lot of other stuff

Second question: No.

I like how they're not afraid to let Azorius have priority cards, disruption cards, tempo cards.

They haven't been afraid to allow Izzet to loot and have powerful burn cards.

So far they've spoiled cards that allow these color combinations to "do what they do". They're not trying to stranglehold the meta, and dictate what it does. These cards say "you wanna run tempo? Good luck beating all of these opposing tokens". For now, pending any broken decks using Innistrad cards, these guilds are prepared to fight each other. These guilds haven't been "well blue has been so powerful for so long, let's nerf it and give it no functional counters", it's a fresh start and it looks amazing.
