Arlinn Kord, the Werewolf Planeswalker
Spoilers, Rumors, and Speculation forum
Posted on March 2, 2016, 11:40 a.m. by OmegaAura113
In today's Magic Story, we were introduced to the werewolf planeswalker Arlinn Kord. With both her flip and human art looking pretty awesome, I'm pretty sure we're gonna get her as a card in SOI or the summer set. Any thoughts?
Nahiri is not talking to Sorin, she is talking about Sorin... that implies he is not present while she is talking. - Not necessarily 'not on Innistrad', but certainly not an indication that he 'is on Innistrad'.

So we know Liliana, Jace, and Arlinn get cards. That leaves two spots in this block, one of which I'm betting is Nahiri. Maybe Sorin or Tibalt for the other

What was Garruk's status at the end of M15? All I ever knew was he was on a killing spree.

As soon as we know Arlinn's colors, we'll have a good idea as to who else is in the Block, and what colors they are.
Assuming Jace = 
, and Lili = 
If...
1) Arlinn is mono-
.
- Nahiri is probably 
- Tibalt is in and is 
2) Arlinn is .
- Nahiri is probably
- Sorin is in and is (will be in SoI, as they wouldn't print 2 planes walkers in the smaller set)
3) Arlinn is
- Nahiri is probably
- Tibalt is in and is
4) Arlinn is not at all...
- Players quit magic and sell off all their cards.

It is also possible that we don't see Nahiri, and this is just the first in a series of following her in the Wake of her ongoing destruction.
If that is the case, we'll probably get:
Arlinn =
Tiablt =
Sorin =
I feel this is a little less likely.

I think if Tibalt gets put in a set, he's going to be , judging upon what Maro says about Tibalt's color identity matching 's sadism the most.
I would put nahiri as because from a lore stand point, white looks like the villans of the block, and I would think she aligns with them.
Could Arlinn be a middle ground between each side as ?

Arlinn could be , though I imagine her being because from a lore standpoint, she seems to be a werewolf lord in the vein of Immerwolf.

I could also get behind the idea of her being Naya colors... we're overdue for another 3-Color walker.
March 3, 2016 3:52 p.m.
I could see that happening. With the fetchlands going away, getting 3 colors will be more difficult, so Arlinn would need to be pretty beefy. If she does have 3 colors, I would like to see it in something like 
.

We had a 3 color walker in DTK. That wasn't that long ago.
Werewolves were always a R/G tribe, I HIGHLY doubt that they would do a 3 color set so close to the wedge block of KTK.

Remember the good old days when everything was one color?
Good times...

You are also forgetting a potential or 
Tamiyo.
Unless she's dead.

I still don't see what tamiyo would contribute to the story that would be more impactful than all of the other characters named so far.

I still don't know how she contributed to Innistrad. Oh, there's Tamiyo. She studies the moon. The end

Maybe Arlinn isn't a flip card, the werewolf art is for a token she spawns with one of her abilities. The token could be spawned by an effect like 'exile this card, put a legendary X/X green and red Werewolf creature token named Arlin Kord onto the battlefield, where X is the number of loyalty counters on this card'

Why is this not in my life and how can I fix this problem?

Tibalt's lore is so badass he deserves to not be a joke. Fortunately he's playable and even good in Feldon commander though.

Legit tho, I've lost count of the number of games I've won of Tib's ult.

So with this http://tappedout.net/mtg-forum/spoilers-rumors-and-speculation/april-2016-shadows-over-innistrad/?page=18#c2560906, we now know there is a second card for dual faced cards.

"As Zendikar has bled, so will innistrad. As I have wept, so will Sorin." -Nahiri
The flavour text on Structural Distortion that suggests heavily Nahiri and sorin are on the same plane, which would be innistrad.
