Dracolich or Death Tyrant for the dungeon deck?

Gavin did tease a Death Tyrant, so one is in: because it will be Legendary, I expect a named Monster character.

Netherskull was in Undermountain.

Netherskull was in Undermountain.

That would fit the Venture & undead theme of the deck.

 

[Henadic Theologian]

I'm going with...

Powerful Fiend for Planar Portal, maybe the Patron of the Warlock
Powerful undead for the Dungeon Deck: Ackerack or Szaz Tam?
Dragons McDragonface for Draconic Rage
Archfey for Aura?

When you here the Patron described it sounds more Lovecraftian, so I'm thinking Great Old One Pact, although the chains in the art suggest Kyton Patron if he is Fiend Pact.

It seems he was intentionally not giving info on the Patron, which is why I suspect there may be a link to the Monster there.

What colour would an Aboleth be? Could a Legendary Aboleth be in Rakdos colours?

For creatures I see alot of Demons, Tieflings, maybe Slaads, possibly Fairies, Imp/Efferti/Devil reprints (but not new Devil cards, those are likely on Orzov colours, not Rakdos), Succubi/Incubi, Yugoloths, Star Spawn, maybe Shadar Kai Elves, Aboleths, Elementals, Warlocks, Shamans, Spellslingers. Maybe Beholders. For Planar Portals you could have maybe the Death Tyrant, or Bazram Gorag, or the Yorl the Slaad Lord, or a Primordial, or Demigorgan, or Malcanthet.

For the Blue/White/Black deck I think either a Dracolich or a Gem Dragon, Lich, or an Elder Brain Mindflayer would be cool second Commander.

UB imo.

 

[Bardic Dave]

UB imo.

Most likely. Possibly (less likely imho) even just U. Rakdos seems unlikely to me.

Yeah I realized they would be a poor choice for a R/B deck. For Aberrantions Slaads make way more sense, amd fits the themes better.

I'm trying to think what Dragon type would fit as the Second Commander for the Gruul deck. I lean towards either a fameous Green Dragon or Copper Dragon, they like forests but are chaotic enough to be red mana based. The Copper Dragon Twins from the Drizzt novels would be cool. I doubt its a Red Dragon, unless its Tchazzar.

Rosewater's teaser suggested Asmodeus would get a card: Asmodeus could be Rakdos.
