Just a heads up for people: There are no white Eldrazi.

Why would anyone even think that? It does basically nothing.

I think it was just them reaching. MaRo has talked a lot about that color combination needing an overlap now that they basically have the Blue/Red overlap solved with Prowess. I'm willing to bet he'll get that question for just about any mechanic that appears in both blue and black from here on out no matter how dumb the suggestion would be.

For what it's worth, the asker meant ingest rather than devoid.

Ingest makes more sense in the context of the question, but strikes me as a poor choice for an evergreen mechanic.

Well, Ingest doesn't do anything either :v

Eh, it's sort of like a mil mechanic that is definitely something a Blue/black overlap mechanic should do. Being more combat oriented however, and being an exile mechanic instead of a true mil mechanic, it's just not a good fit for evergreen in those colors.

it's also not a good fit for evergreen in general

it's also not a good fit for being keyworded

Racist. #whiteeldrazimatters

Drana pretty much confirmed to appear in BFZ.

Chances of Zendikar surviving this Eldrazi fight have decreased.

He later admitted that what he really meant was "not all full art lands will be set on zendikar"

Possibly sub themes are by shard?
Allies = Naya
Awaken = Esper
?? = Jund
?? = Bant
?? = Grixis

Landfall and Converge seem to be Temur so I expect them to be 5 color.

I suspect awaken will be in all five colours, and sadin said that allies will be in all five colours. Meanwhile colorless-matters / devoid is in every colour except white, and landfall will probably be in every color.

They may be more centred in some colours than others, but I think most mechanics will be centred in a pair of colours rather than a shard.
Gw - allies
Wu - awaken
Ub - ingest / processors
Br - colorless-matters / devoid
Rg - landfall

Ramp and scions-matter seem to be a colorless thing and converge is of course a five color thing.

Looks like I was wrong about there not being enemy color strategies. Looks like it'll be something like

WB - lifedrain
UR - eldrazi ramp
BG - sacrifice
RW - big allies (GW is go wide allies)
GU - converge

WB could also be vampires.

They probably won't, but it'd be cool if they printed a land this set that had a bunch of creature keywords but wasn't a creature, just as a neat Johnny thing with awaken.

Call it Ashaya Dormant or something.

The mythic color balance is a bit weird. There are four mythics that are at least part green. Perhaps the multicoloured mythics count as colorless for purposes of color balance. Then we'd have our five colorless (kiora, omnath, ulamog, oblivion sower, void Winnower) the two green ones and ob Nixilis and Gideon. So we could expect two more blue, two more red, one more each of white and black?

Or could they be counting kiora as just blue and omnath as just red? Then we'd expect one more of each color except green, and two more colorless.

my recollection from when I was looking at these for Ossia is that they don't bother with color balance at mythic. like they'll try and have one of each at least, but beyond that it's a free-for-all, they come up so infrequently that color imbalances don't really affect the as-fan.

Someone on tumblr pointed out an interesting relationship with the design of Oath of the Gatewatch's Set symbol and Kozilek's brood...
