3 Returning Planeswalkers for Tarkir
Spoilers, Rumors, and Speculation forum
Posted on Aug. 19, 2014, 3:34 p.m. by damtgmaster
Sarkhan Vol will return that's for sure because Nicol Bolas, Planeswalker has driven him insane I predict him to send Tezzeret and if Tezzeret, Agent of Bolas fails I have a feeling Bolas will go after Sarkahn himself and look at the Shards PlaneswalkersElspeth, Knight-Errant and Ajani Vengeant we saw return on Theros as well as Elspeth being on Mirrodan just like Tezzeret Which leaves Sarkahn Tezzeret and Bolas so I think we will see reprints of those 3

I've heard this theory before. If Sarkhan is trying to bring back Ugin, Bolas may have something to say about that. Sending Tezzeret after him might make sense, or just go do it himself...maybe he'll get a new puppet though?
Also...punctuation is valuable.

Yhose 3 make the most sense because Elspeth and Ajani were on Theros I want to see it happen

The only one I don't support personally is Tezzy, but the others make sense.

MagicalHacker I believe you it's a theory because the other 2 from the block were on Theros with a Bolas like Context I'd assume Tezzeret would show up It's like he's going to hunt Sarkahn down and than fails so Bolas destroys him and does it himself

I would expect Ajani Vengeant if it weren't for the absurd number of Ajani's standard is shaping up to have. I mean when M16 comes out standard could have 4 Ajani's, which would be insane.
Personally, I am really hoping for a Black Red walker of some type, and not a reprint of Sarkhan the Mad

Speculation: The role of Ramaz
Maybe Ramaz shows up? Seems to fit well and is in line with what you guys are saying.

I actually wouldn't be surprised if they give Chandra a spot in Khans because we haven't seen her in a block since Zendikar. Also, Ramaz manipulated her into stealing the Dragon Scroll (how she and Jace were able to defeat Sarkhan on Zendikar) and she chased after him in DOTP 2014.

Ramaz makes a lot of sense. He is a RUG mage that specializes in icy magic (think about the temur clan, which lives in the icy north of tarkir) and he takes orders from bolas. This is about perfect. I really hope my evil dragon bitch gets a new printing. It would be about time for that

damtgmaster says... #12
Ramaz would be a new one band because it's a 5 Planeswalker block that makes sense
August 19, 2014 5:39 p.m.
Ramaz being wedge colors (RUG) makes him an even more likely option
August 19, 2014 5:58 p.m.
I don't know about Tezzeret, but Ramaz I could see. Would be cool, and I would definitely love to see bolas again. Just ready to start finding out
August 19, 2014 6:38 p.m.
KindredDiscovery says... #17
I think Ramaz makes perfect sense. Wedge colors, a servant of Bolas, not already occupied on another plane (I don't think Tezzeret is leaving New Phyrexia for a while)...the pieces fit together nicely.
August 19, 2014 8:12 p.m.
GoldGhost012 says... #18
I think Tezzeret already left New Phyrexia prior to Elesh Norn's takeover.

damtgmaster says... #19
This was about the returning planeswalkers meaning ones that were already printed but Rimaz could be another one
August 19, 2014 9:42 p.m.
Not to be that guy..... but i can't get over the lack of a period in the whole post lol but great points nonetheless. I would love a new nicol bolas!
August 19, 2014 9:53 p.m.
damtgmaster says... #21
Tezzeret would be awesome for me because I always loved him. There's your period.
August 19, 2014 10:50 p.m.
Rasta_Viking29 says... #22
I think you have a very probable plot here just with Ramaz instead of Tezz.
Threat in the North? (GoT) Kahns!. (Ancient Asia) Bolas acting through Ramaz is the villain? (Sweet) Sarkhan the Rad. (sucker for red walkers)
That's flavor I can dig. Hope this turns out true.
August 20, 2014 1:39 a.m.
I would love to see a new Nicol Bolas, but I don't think you can make him much lower in cost, because he needs to be very powerful. However, him being Grixis of colour, I don't know where he would fit in this block. Perhaps in the third set since the wedges are only in the first set.
But then again, how far back are they going into the past? Possible to get a "younger" Bolas?

canterlotguardian says... #24
I'd like to see Ramaz as a RUG 'walker and a Grixis Bolas that's a new card and not just a reprint of Conflux Bolas.
August 20, 2014 12:07 p.m.
I expect we see a Planeswalker that is currently dead in the timeline we are in right now for the second half of he block. Maybe Venser or another walker who hasn't had a card
August 20, 2014 11:32 p.m.
damtgmaster says... #26
I expect Bolas at the 3rd set but per block we get 2-3 returning walkers as well as 2-3 new ones so this theory was set 1 SarkahnA new walker (Ramaz maybe)Set 2TezzeretSet 3BolasA new walker
August 21, 2014 1:01 a.m.
Aside from Sarkhan, Ramaz and Ugin seem most likely to appear. I'd like to see Bolas in third set, but that will probably depend on how the block is actually structured. He may be saved for the next Zendikar block. Liliana and Chandra are both due for a new version, so they could certainly appear.
August 21, 2014 10:56 a.m.
The returning planeswalker will be Chandra, and it'll turn out that she has two hot sisters who are also walkers!

SwaggyMcSwagglepants says... #30
There's probably not going to be a Tezzeret reprint because in Alara there was Esper, the tri-colored home of artifice. That kinda leaves Wizards with no other place to put an artifice them since another tri-color grouping stole that.
August 21, 2014 11:40 p.m.
damtgmaster says... #31
Ok Tezzeret could be seen in the next block hopefully I want to see a new Zendikar because maybe we'll get an Eldrazi walker but I believe Bolas is returning here
August 22, 2014 2:48 a.m.
CommanderOfBolas says... #32
Eldrazi wont be walkers. They can already move through the blind eternities (well, the titans can) so there would really be no point

Rhinowarrior says... #33
I cannot describe to you how freaking awesome a ramaz planeswalker would be! And where there is ramaz, there is chandra. And bolas. And where there is ramaz, there is sarkhan. and where there is sarkhan, there is ugin.
August 22, 2014 6:09 p.m.
Rhinowarrior says... #34
2 new. 1 returning. they don't really do reprints in new fall sets. those are for the core sets.
August 22, 2014 6:10 p.m.
Rhinowarrior says... #35
sorry to triple post but i meant 3 returning. all of which should be much different. Maybe a BOROS CHANDRA!!!
August 22, 2014 6:11 p.m.
Nicol Bolas is not allowed to have another card. He is perfect the way he is.
August 22, 2014 7:02 p.m.
damtgmaster says... #37
So this is the theory I now have this will be a mostly red block with Sarkahn-ChandraRamaz Ugin-Bolas
They all have Red so this will be a red block
August 23, 2014 5:52 p.m.
Rhinowarrior says... #38
Red is the primary color for dragons so i could see that theory have a semi-legitamacy
August 23, 2014 8:19 p.m.
Ramaz makes sense, as does Chandra. Maybe Liliana? Neither got a new card. Ugin could get one soon, I think his plan has to do with resurrection.
Also the code names for Tarkir block are, of course, Hewie (Red), Dewey (Blue), Louie (Green).
August 28, 2014 7:14 p.m.
Pot hole in your theory. Elspeth got shanked by Heliod's spear from Erebos I think. And I hope tezzert comes back. Mono brown player at heart XD
August 29, 2014 8:43 a.m.
I'm new to this kind of thing, but if it's in the past why don't they have PW's as heroes instead of legit Planeswalkers, like a legit Nicol Bolas creature, maybe not exactly that, but it'd be nice to see heroes do something for once instead of the PW's getting all the credit.

CommanderOfBolas says... #45
@Em0B0b: Actually it was heliod that stabbed her. He was basically jealous of how strong she was, and was scared that she would also become a god. Also, wizards has said that she is in the underworld with erebos right now, so maybe she will come back in the future.
@Kiora_Fan-01: Basically what you are saying is they should feature the PWs before they became PWs when they travel to the past? It is certainly possible. Nicol Bolas
does already have a card, and I doubt they will go back that far anyway. Also, what do you mean by "see heroes do something?" Aren't PWs heroes (in some cases, anyway)?
August 29, 2014 10:53 a.m.
CommanderOfBolas Heroes I meant like creatures like it used to be.

A new nicol bolas that isn't a lot of mana to cast would be super cool.
