New planeswalker announced.

Oooo i wonder how she will work? Will she come into play as a human and flip back and for like normal werewolves? Or will she flip when she uses some ability? One form adding loyalty the other lossing it? Or will she be another gideon/sarken and have an ability that makes her into a */* werewolf for a time? Oooh the possibilties

The article reads like she may only have the walker abilities in werewolf form, so she could function like a flip walker does
But that is my whole point, how will it work? I think it is safe to say that she will not start as a creature like the origin flip walkers. Will she have a flip mechanic? The two pictures on the articles gallery hints yes. But how will it work? Will she will it be a static trigger that flips her like current werewolves or an activated loyality ability?

They also do many cards to represent the happenings in Lore, Wolf art could be a sourcery of her first transformation in the church. Like Surrak's bear fight.

It could be like how they did  {Garruk Relentless}

True, but he had name on checklist.  This pw doesn't

LinkCelestrial

Nobody taking about how Avacyn is the baddy in this one?

It says she has the ability to change at will back and forth with relative ease. That sounds nothing like our current brand of werewolves. I'm think an activated ability on both sides of the card. Sorcery speed for both probably.

She could easily be something like {Convicted Killer} on one side. Plenty of generic enough names in R and G to fit.

Remillo

Arlinn may just appear in Eldritch Moon.  We're very likely getting a new Jace and Nahiri in SOI, having her card wait a set is not unlikely.

LinkCelestrial

Jace, Sorin, Nahiri, Arlinn. Maybe Tamiyo somewhere but highly unlikely.

Maybe a flip card like the kammy block.
Too much text to put on one side of card to flip like that.

The face behind Jace reminds me hardcore of Oona. I would be so pleased if it turned out to be Fae hijinks causing the moon to phases like the shift between Lowryn / Shadowmoor. And causing the crazy people. Just gonna go ahead and make my own story. Oona - Planeswslking Fae/Demon.

So what's the countdown for?  It ends in under 8 hours....

perhaps they start spoiling cards themselves so no one else does?
or maybe more stories due to lore density in this set?

Yeah. I'm thinking they release the video for the set or we find out the story of shadows.   The only thing we really know was the falling feather and avacyn symbol warping.

We also know that the humans are killing the Angels, that not all the werewolves were "fixed", that demonic possession is becoming more common, that many of the lesser wards to keep evil at bay are failing, and that the werewolves believe something truly evil and powerful is coming and that must gather in number to defend innistraad against it.
It's Emrakul!!! Come to complete the Gothic horror!!!
