Landfall Confirmed?

After seeing the Zendikar vs. Eldrazi box art and front cards. I feel like there's a strong chance that landfall will return, because the front card for the Eldrazi deck has an ability that allows you to put so many lands onto the battlefield all at once, which could trigger some pretty insane landfall stuff. Thoughts?

As much as I'd love to see landfall an possible reprints of Avenger of Zendikar and Lotus Cobra in standard, I think it may be too early to tell. The eldrazi bringing in lands seems pretty situational to me as you can't guarantee you will hit any lands and there isn't much in the way of forcing lands into exile at this time (Tormod's Crypt is rotating so you can't land destruction + exile the grave)

weisemanjohn, Avenger of Zendikar is confirmed to be only a reprint for the duel deck, so it will not be standard legal.

I am more hype for this than pretty much any other Magic product this year. You can never- let me repeat that, NEVER- have too many Avenger of Zendikar around.

To be fair, the description did say "It is not necessarily returning to Standard" (emphasis mine). It's distinctly possible they're reprinting AoZ, in addition to this new guy.

I doubt we are getting landfall as we know it back,maybe some new form of it though. but we are getting allies back and some colorless spells like ghostfire.

Let's be honest, Landfall is definitely going to come back. If you name one new mechanic from Zendikar block that people would be upset not returning, it's going to be Landfall at number 1.
