Nice catch. I don't think anyone pointed that out in some 15 pages of babble on Salvation. (God I'm such a snob.)
That kinda sounds like Domri isn't a Ravnica native though. It suggests to me that he's fallen in with the Gruul after coming from another plane.

I think I like it better that way.
Magic's narrative forces contrivances in its walkers hard enough already (why are all of the major recurring characters people between the ages of 20-40 with too much time on their hands), so that we often have multiple characters from the same setting ascending at close relative times.
Vraska, Ral AND Domri all being Ravnica natives that ascended in the last decade or so would just be too much.
Edit: Before anyone says it, Yes, Bo Levar and Urza ascended at the same time because of the same trigger.

To be fair, the Sylex Blast was a big trigger.

As Bo Levar said "We're gonna need a bigger boat."

Agreed. I would bet that Domri is from a different plane. I heard someone suggest Muraganda as an option. Also being that he appears to be a child/teen maybe he fled his plane after his plane was being destroyed by nature, dinosaurs if its Muraganda and he came to Ravnica to seek help. Gruul would be who he relates to most so thats who he joined up with. This is all just wild speculation.

At least you have the decency to admit it.

Would never claim to be some kind of all knowing WOTC insider.

Hm, the idea that he might be from Muraganda is interesting... In fact, there's a good chance, I think, that he's from a known plane. Creative seems to be getting more comfortable giving nods to past material, after all.

Don't start with him. He made a comment the other day that still has me tweaked.
And no, it has nothing to do with Liliana.
