Ugin is dead, yet Ugin card possible?
Spoilers, Rumors, and Speculation forum

Bolas has stated that he took care of Ugin long ago, so he is almost assuredly dead. However, a set in the Khans block is said to involve TIME TRAVEL. This could mean we see a Ugin planeswalker card in the past time set. Am I crazy or am I on to something, what do you think?

If you go to the spoilers rumors and speculation forum, there are a few interesting threads in him already j would suggest you take a look at.

I would be surprised if Ugin doesn't show up during this block. Khans is unlikely, but the next two seem like strong possibilities.

Ulvhedner Ugin is suspected of being a planeswalker. He definitely will not be in Khans, but another set in the Khans block. For him to have been on Tarkir in the past makes a lot of sense, as Sarkhan knew who he was when he spoke with a apparition of Ugin on Zendikar. Plus, we need more colorless planeswalkers.

Well now that makes a lot of sesnse. Sarkhan going to the past in say the second set of the block would be a perfect opportunity to give us a Ugin card. But it could also show up in the third set when Sarkhan returns to the present and lots of dragons roam the plane again including Ugin.

katarhero Ugin is a planeswalker, for definite. We just don't know whether he's a dead one or an alive one. Just to clarify.

In the comics bolas states that ugin won't bother sarkhan and him in the quest to release the eldrazi because he "knows where ugin's body is".
That being said, since ugin isn't a spirit dragon I don't think it is far fetched at all that his spirit is still around (sarkhan vol is hearing him in his head) and simply being detached from his body or not needing a body.
Also since this world has time travel and bringing back the once extinct dragons, it fits flavor and storywise

In Khans, there is a card called Ugin's Nexus and flavor states that "All at once Sarkhan's mind fell silent." So is it safe to say that the Ugin Sarkhan was hearing really was the spirit of Ugin and left Sarkhan's mind to reunite with his worldly body or was Sarkhan highly delusional and the voices laid to rest when he saw Ugin's Skeleton.

IMO there are two possibilities for Ugin coming back.1) Sorin uses his black planeswalker powers to bring back Ugin as a skeleton dragon planeswalker (maybe black colorless like Ghostfire 2)Sarkhan and Sorin go back in time to fight Bolas with Ugin to prevent him from dying to have him help each of them. Sorin's motivation to rid innistrad of the eldrazi, and Sarkhan's to repopulate Tarkir with dragons.

I'd love to see more ugin related cards but I highly doubt seeing him in this set, especially as a planeswalker.
