Speed vs Cunning
Spoilers, Rumors, and Speculation forum

"Racing across the blazing steppe, the wave of attackers crests the barren hills. Nothing can stop their reckless advance. These warriors live fast, fight hard, and strike terror into the hearts of those in their path. The scarred countryside seems abandoned. Then, suddenly, hidden fighters spring from ambush. The overconfident enemy recoils in surprise, outflanked and outsmarted. Who will prevail, the swift or the sly?"
The new duel deck! Sounds like control vs aggro to me.
This turns my head towards the supposed "Khans of Tarkir" trademark. The description reminds me of the silk road and general Mongolia.

I am hoping for RDW vs mono blue control, but I think two color decks are more likely. I predict Speed to have Goblin Guide and Cunning to have Cryptic Command .

Looks like R/W vs U/W or R/B vs U/W when it comes to combat. Also the speculation of a warfare themed plane seems a bit stronger now that the appropriate Duel Deck appears to be Combat based.
