I'm fine with humanoid, I can see their justification to a point, I still want a badass evil knight planeswalker.

It's good to see some multicolor decks are planned. With only 1 multicolor deck (that doesn't work well with 2HG) the 'tap your own lands' option is rather useless so far. In DOTP2012 I have up on the 3 color decks because the AI always seemed to choose the wrong lands to tap, and going back to just 9 monocolored was a bit of a letdown for me.

I knew something was coming because of this, having only one multicolor deck ingame was odd after spouting the "tap your own lands" crap.

It just amazes me how it took until the 3rd release of the game to get that feature.

Azorius - Aura Servants
Golgari - Sepulchral Strength
Izzet - Mindstorms
Rakdos - Grinning Malice
Selesnya - Collective Might

No unlocks or other information is available at this time, though I can personally confirm the name of the Aura Servants deck as the same thing happened to me that happened to the original poster.

Evenfall has by now posted all five decks, and no unknown cards are to be seen in them. Apparently Wizards learned a little bit.

The current contents of the expansion decks have been posted. There are no new cards in any of them, but there are plenty of Ravnica block cards in each so there's the possibility that some of them will be reprinted. The poster would like to note that these may not be the final decklists. While all of them play around with the strengths of the guilds, none of them use the guild keywords (so no Convoke, Forecast, Hellbent, Replicate, or Dredge cards are in the decks).

Looks to me like they placeholdered quite a bit, if you note some specific cards in each of those decks seem really out of place for the rest of the deck..

Sneaky bastards, kudos to them.

[Wretchedest]

Well good for them for catching on, i suppose.

This at least does indicate a return to guild. I say indicates, not confirms. Although, Ravnica without guilds seems to miss the point.

My brain locked onto the fact that Pernicious Deed is in the Golgari deck! So... Now I am SUPER hopefull to see it reprinted. I miss and LOVE that card. Come on ROCK! Make a comeback!

Damn, that Golgari deck is practically begging for Savra, Queen of the Golgari.
Flavor fail

[Paddymew]

I think DotP 2013 really needs an Aura deck because of the Akoum plane, so this is really great to hear. It'd make sense for it to be Azorius-colored too.

After playing the game a bit and getting even more excited about these forthcoming decks,
I hope they do the right thing and also make decks for Dimir, Simic, Boros, and Gruul.
I'll be sad if Momir Vig, Simic Visonary and Gisela, Blade of Goldnight don't eventually show up

If they do make a Boros deck, I'm pretty sure they'll choose to put Razia, Boros Archangel instead of Gisela. While much weaker, she's the leader of the guild and would fit better flavorwise.

Correction: She is the Parun, not the current leader.
