I'd love to see Delve. {Logic Knot} is my favorite counterspell.

I'm gonna make a theme based guess and say the old is a mechanic based around attacking/blocking since the set is a plane at war. Bushido, rampage (same thing different name, haha), etc but with the stipulation that it's something peeps have been asking for makes it harder to work out. One LGS is very different from the next, my understanding of what people want I aprons way off yours.

I think some other people said something about flanking. That might be cool. Or maybe exalted, but probably not.

Bushido is similar to Rampage, but not the same. Bushido only gets the bonus once, regardless of how many creatures are blocking it. Rampage gets this bonus, but only if two or more creatures are blocking it, and gets the bonus for each creature blocking it.

For my added 2-cents, once again. I firmly support Khans of Tarkir having wedge colors because of this stretch of information: The codename was Huey Dewey and Louey. While these code names don't give any explicit information on the set, if you look into past code names and their set mechanics you can sometimes see the relation... for example Time Block had Snap /Crackle/Pop (for time spiral, it was a snapback to older cards and a crackle for the planar chaos) Imnistrad had Shake/rattle/roll (shake/rattling from being scared, hence the horror-block) Kamigawa was Earth/wing/fire (elements, originally from Eastern civilizations lore) so as you can see...  The three little ducks HUEy, Dewey and Luey are Red/ Green ./ Blue (RUG wedge colors) , and the first set literally has Hue in their name. SOOOOOOOOOOOO That is the only logical explanation to the sets potential themes.

You sir are either a genius or a fool! But ill buy it!! Thanks for the connections!! :D

You do realize that the codenames are specially picked as to not give anything away about the block, right? Also, you missed the most obvious one, Friends/Romans/Countrymen were the codenames for THS block, but they were chosen before the Greek theme was decided upon, a complete coincidence.
