[GTC] – Name and Number Crunch

[chaosof99]

I think the distribution of cards will be identical from Return to Ravnica, since the two sets are more or less twins. Gatecrash is of identical size as RTR without the basic lands, and since it also contains five guilds it should have the same color distribution. The only exception I think is that there will be one more multicolor and one fewer land card, as the Grove of the Guardian slot transfers.


- Names in bold are confirmed, including their card number
- Names in normal type (not bold) are confirmed, but their exact card number (or even color) is as yet unknown. Their positions may be subject to change.
- Names in italics are speculation
- Words in brackets [] are placeholders for cards we know a lot about, except the name, or only a partial name.
Please note that the grouping of colors and types is only an estimate and may be subject to change.

Thanks for getting this started! It's exciting to see movement towards Gatecrash happening already.

[Solmancer]

Orzhova Guildmage is actually Vizkopa Guildmage (naturally begging the question of "Vizkopa wat???"). They showed that at the PAX party.

[teddy_bear_x]

That's why I don't like cycles. We know the effect of fifteen cards and the name and what to expect of other fifteen...

[Italian Stallion]

That is just a minor gripe I think. After the set is released who doesn't really like cycles?

I have found the picture

Spoiler:

[Schondetta]

can someone explain to me how we know some of these cards already? i dont understand how the crunch is deduced

[void_nothing]

So are we figuring on five monocolor myffics and two per guild?

Godless Shrine - 242

I knew I would kick myself for not taking photos of the Gatecrash stuff for N/N crunch. Sunhome Guildmage is correct in N/N from the photo that I have.

EDIT - Attached Sunhome Guildmage pic for confirmation.

[naturax]

I feel very strongly that they should have gone with "Swamp Plains".

Plains Swamp follows typical WUBRG order. All WB cards go in the same order. To change that to Swamp Plains goes against structure and a lot of precedence.

[Zapgaze]

I have a feeling card #248 land between Stomping Ground and Watery Grave will be Transguild Promenade.

Based on the image, Godless Shrine should be #242 not #241.

PAX had a lot of pictures, plus the 5 foils we have info about, plus all of the cards we can deduce from RTR like charms, keyrunes, guildgates, guild leaders, and guild mages.

That appears to make very little sense. If anything it'll be a new five-color-fixing land or simply a random one-off like Rogue's Passage.
