This means we face 10 seperate Intro Decks with their respective FOIL Guild Champion headlining them.
Why you should care? Because the price of those will hit the rock bottom very soon and inflicts booster draft outcome

Do you really think there will be 10 separate decks? Maybe there will be a bunch of 3 color decks or something instead. Just a thought.

Spot the Intro Packs in the top picture. Sure no prove for 10 different packs but would be rather strange otherwise

With booster draft outcome I refer to the common "money pick" in drafts. Foil versions in intro deck will drastically affect the Price of their booster counterparts which could be relevant for the EDH crowd unlike other Intro Deck foils previously. These Legends won't help to "break Even" in case of a punted draft

I don't think they would anyway. Your money cards are likely to still be shocklands (now with depreciating price) and whatever chase rares/mythics are in this set.
I mean, the two champions we've seen both cost six. That doesn't mean they'll all cost six, but it's not a good sign. Thar is big and smashy but he makes it painful to play good RG spells, so he's less attractive as a general than a host of other available options. The new Izzet guy seems worse than all of the other available options except Tibor and Lumia (not a high hurdle to overcome), though I guess if you wanted to do some sort of creatureless control deck and were allergic to Niv-Mizzet in either of his forms, you could pick a worse general.
There are plenty of mediocre legends with low foil prices. Putting these in the intro packs just makes it easier for people who want to get foil generals to have them, depressing the value of the foil by some probably small amount. I could see it being an issue if, say, one of the generals is chase, but for the majority of them the appeal is probably pretty niche and demand won't be high enough for the effect of high supply to matter much.
Fair enough

Within a week (and after the Intro Pack announcement) the Price for non foil Ruric-Thar in the Presale dropped from ~5,60€ to ~1,40€
