So they just gave the title and showed the cover mock-ups; no specific info till Monday?
I'm also hoping for some of the Arch Fey (to go with the Elf and Eladrin stuff) and maybe some Great Old Ones or lords of the Shadowfell (Raven Queen comes to mind)? Don't forget they also mentioned "Elder Elemental Beings."
Hopefully the latter won't just be the four Princes of Elemental Evil; they might very well appear, but hopefully we'll get some CR 15 or so greater classic (earth, air, fire, water) elementals.
And I didn't even think about the eladrin (the 2e/3e CG group of celestial races, not the PC race which we know will be appearing), even though we were just discussing celestials. Granted, they might now have become officially fey, but I would be perfectly fine with that (pretty logical, actually) change, as long as we get to see them updated.
They mentioned the Leviathan as an Elder Elemental that is Tarrasque level. Also Crawford implied That there is also an Eladrin race that were like the Elf PC race but ascended to full Fey and even into Arborea, which would fit the older Celestial version.
You know what, they spent an awfully long timem on Modron/Slaadi lore in Lore You Should Know recently, and it seemed set up as...a great conflict of the multiverse. And they spent quite a bit of that discussing Rogue Modrons and how they work: I wouldn't be the least surprised to see that.Rogue modrons as a race, please?

Sounds like the Elaldrin Elf subrace that has been published in a UA article.
I just hope they don't decide to totally jettison the original Celestial "angel" Eladrin. That's rage-quit level for me. They can rename them "Phlarbnoodles", but they sure as heck better not be written out (currently they've been completely ignored, but not technically stated not to be around). The LG, NG, and CG Exemplars are multiversally necessary components of the cosmology.
