What's the evidence of Eliminster? Mordenkainen has a name checked card in the Set in Blue, and a flavor text quote. Similar to what we see with Wish. Expect Mordenkainen.

If Elminister isn't in this set, the naughty word will hit the fan, I guarantee it. No way the El isn't in this set, it'd be a declaration of war against FR fans. There is a small chance they decide to make Elminister a creature so he can be a Commander or something really weird like making him a Legendary Token that appears when you play Mystra Goddess of Magic, but no Elminster at all is madness.

Who says no Elminster at all? It just seems that Mordenkainen is being set up as the Blue Planeswalker. It would also make sense if the Planeswalkers aren't particularly Forgotten Realms centric, as they might have been chosen when the intention was to make a more Generic D&D Core Set.
 

Started a thread for the adventure they just posted to go along with the set...

D&D 5E - MtG Adventures in the Forgotten Realms - Adventures for 5E

It looks like instead of stories that WotC is putting out Adventures for the MtG set AFR. The first is for 4-6 characters of level 8, and the last page of it teases the name of the follow-up. Spoilers likely beyond this point! Part I...

Yeah, like FR fans are going to burn WotC HQ to the ground for missing one character in their exclusive card set :rolleyes:

Honestly not a lot of these call to me for constructed. I think limited would be a lot of fun, the flavour is unreal.

But what I would love is to have some kind of game that is 'not Magic' that was playable with these mechanics/cards.

I'm probably not explaining well, but a Fantasy, Dungeon driven set that leans into D&D tropes is...not something that I knew I wanted.
 

We’re seeing so many flavor home-runs here, it kinda makes the misses stand out more to me. When your Shambling Ghast dies, you can choose to brave the stench, which gives an opponent’s creature -1/-1? Huh? Or you can choose to loot the body (of a creature your opponent presumably killed), and doing so… is the alternative to braving the stench? How does that work?

Don’t get me wrong, the overall flavor quality here is consistently very high, but this one doesn’t do it for me.

Sometimes, that's just Magic cards.
