The bolas artwork is for the duel Deck I'm fairly sure. I believe Maro said that there will be only two PW's in ISD but not sure.
Since Sorin is going to be in dark acsension, I'm guessing that either in that set or roll will have a new gideon.

because of the tribes in this set I think it will be highly probable for a legendary in each of the allied colors for each creature type. kinda like the praetors. i cant wait to draft all wearwolves XD

After reading Maro's article today and he posted some teasers for ISD (Spoilers start next week!) Here they are:
- A card based on a silver-bordered white card
-A token-making sorcery which makes more creature tokens than any previous token-making spell (not counting X spells or spells that make a variable number)
-An enchantment that could let you play all your creatures for free
-A spell that can deal 13 damage to multiple creatures for one mana (and yes, I mean 13 damage multiple times)
-Many—and I'm talking more than a few—cards inspired by famous horror stories
-A card that turns a loss into a win
-A two-mana creature that lets you make a 2/2 creature each turn for two mana
-A card that lets you exchange your life total with something you've never been able to exchange it with before
-A planeswalker with five loyalty abilities
FIVE Loyalty abilities??? Holy crap!!!!

wow five abilities? wonder if it is Lilliana because i hear that her new counterpart will be extremely powerful compared to her old self
"A spell that can deal 13 damage to multiple creatures for one mana (and yes, I mean 13 damage multiple times) " Suspend coming back? cause for 1 mana hardcast to wrath the board? that's a bit rigged.

There's going to be a new Lilliana and a new Garruk. The rumor is, a new Sorin will be made in Dark Ascension, but it's not confirmed. Ral Zarek is Duels of the Planeswalkers 2013 only. They've already revealed one Legendary Creature; http://forums.mtgsalvation.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=122481&stc=1&d=1313035431Garruk isn't entirely guaranteed, either. A new Ajani is rumoured over a new Garruk. There should not be a new Nico Bolas, as a Nico Bolas vs. Ajani Goldmane or Vengeant duel deck is being released on September second.

Sorin has been confirmed to be the cover of Dark Ascension. so it will be highly likely that he's gonna be in there. but it is unusual for 2 black walkers in a block. they are really trying to push black it seems
that legendary creature is part of the From the Vaults legends. like sword of body and mind it's a spoiler for new sets. I think they might release a new from the vaults every block if this keeps up.
I tdont think their will be a nico just because 3 black walkers then (sure nico isn't just black)? but seems pretty big leap.
we'll have to wait till next week >,<

This entire set is 'Horror' themed, so multiple Black walkers wouldn't be very crazy. It would fit.
I'm interested to see what the new Sorin, if there is one, will do.

I doubt that ajani will be in over garruk. It makes sense story wise for garruk and liliana to be together but not ajanai and liliana.

Transform mechanic confirmed click hereDouble faced cards?!?! seems like a familer mechanic? Why didn't we just keep the Flip mechanic in place of Transorm Mechanic? From my point of view their both the same thing, sure some people might not remember the other side of the card but it just seems tedious for flipping. and when we use the checklist card in tournaments, which will happen in PTQs, I now need to carry a separate pile of cards with my deck, its almost like YugiOh in a way. we don't have space in our deck boxes >< I am NOT excited about this now. We could have just went with the flip mechanic from kamigawwa block, saves the players a lot of trouble. I bet those stupid checklist cards are gonna be costly too unless one is garrented in every pack FYI Garruk relentless? maybe this will be our 5 abbility planes walkers the 5th one being transform

-sigh- so much negativity online right now...I guess it's because I never experienced flip cards is why I am looking at this mechanic neutrally.
As for garruk, I think you might be right. It could be because of the curse placed on him by lilly which causes him to transform. I think each side will have 3 abilities with the third one being transform for maybe a 0 ability.
