So...5 corresponding shock-lands in the 2 sets?

(would be cool if the guild-specific promo was the land, but I doubt it... just wishful thinking)

seems quite likely now that it is confirmed that the guilds still exist

Also, when the guy asked about reprints of modern staples, the responder mentioned something about hints that some were going to be reprinted soon. All evidence points to shocklands.

Jace is boring, can lili or bolas kill him already? Then just have someone give teferi a spark again.

It makes sense because you can't fairly divide three packs evenly among RTR and gatecrash (best set name EVER btw) so some guilds would be over-represented if you tried to draft the first two sets together without 'Sinker'. It has the nice side bonus of meaning that there will be roughly the same amount of cards from each set available on the secondary market which should help stabilize the price ...of shocklands (especially the Simic one - you wouldn't want that to be in the last set both times!) Now I just have to decide whether I want to go to the prerelease as a tree hugging hippie or as a sadomasochist... or maybe even a mad scientist (my impulse for learning is a bit too much impulse and not enough learning!)

I second that. Let's lure Jace to Dominaria so Teferi can steal his spark.

There's some strong evidence that jace will be U/R in this set so perhaps he'll be more interesting
