Our first official look is on the 25th:

But a few leaks have surfaced:
DFC land/creatures where you choose as you play them instead of transforming them.
And landfall GB Nissa

Landfall: add a loyalty
+1: One of your lands becomes a 3/3 menace haste until eot
-5: drop a creature into play with a cmc less than your land count. Add 2 +1/+1 counters
Assuming accurate, that Nissa is great anti-walker tech in a ramp deck. So, UGB becomes the new default? Nissa, Uro, etc? Cultivate is huge, and with the duals gone, having a tri-land is pretty important for mana.
EDIT: for standard, not eternal formats.
I wonder into which deck Nissa could fit. Both her landfall and resurrection ability work very well with Loam.

Just gonna load up this wastes with a ton of counters so hold your push until it's a 20/20

annoucement trailer. Looks like spoilers begin in earnest on the 1st.
From what I've read on social media, aside from Nissa, we're also getting Jace as walker. And the trailer suggests that Nahiri is going to be the third one.
Makes sense to me - Nissa is BG, Jace is U, Nahiri would be WR, covering all five colors.
Also, if spoilers start next week, when are we going to get the Commander Legends spoilers?
They'll probably invent new products so that we can have continuous spoilers all year.
Don't ask questions, just consume product and get excited for new product.
All hail the mighty dollar.
Looks like my predictions from yesterday were right.
Man, the borderless art of the new Nahiri is so much better than the regular art.
Also, new Jace, this time with Kicker:
That Jace is pretty cool and probably better than it looks but unfortunately Uro.
I’m hoping for zero Legacy playable cards
If you can play it with Kicker, it's a pretty serious draw/scry engine - 2x Scry 2 every turn can dig pretty deep. Additional copies can also create more duplicates. It can't protect itself, but then again, it has up to 5 starting loyality. Wouldn't be surprised if it turns out better than it initially looks.
I'm hoping for additions to D&T (although that's very unlikely) - that Thalia is still the gold standard for white weenies is ridiculous, given how much everything else has been powercrept.
Finally some PWs who are reasonably costed/stat-ed and don't have oppressive abilities.
Jace is actually really neat since you can scry for a land and draw it with the copy.
Probably not eternal playable but still neat.
Makes me wish not elder dragon highlander was still a thing.
The wording is strange though since cards are normally not "drawn" this way but revealed and then put into the hand to avoid miracle like problems.
Nahiri might be playable as 1-off in Stoneblade to outvalue removal. 4 mana is still a lot though.
But it's so inefficient. You get 3 Jaces from 2 cards. If you just played out the 1st Jace, let it die normally (e.g. using the 0 ability), then played the 2nd Jace, you would get 4 Jaces from 2 cards. The nonlegendary clause does let you get another token copy, but it's card disadvantage compared to using it normally.
