Mark Rosewater gave his traditional teaser with the following hints.[1]
First up, here are some things you can expect:
- A white creature that can make an opponent lose the game simply by attacking them no matter how much life they have — Angel of Destiny
- A multicolor creature that lets you repeatedly reanimate permanents out of your opponent’s graveyard for no mana — Zareth San, the Trickster
- Three creatures with five creature types — Tajuru Paragon, Veteran Adventurer, and Stonework Packbeast
- An artifact granting +2/+2 to a subset of creatures that first appeared in Alpha — colorless creatures (Forsaken Monument)
- X being used for a variable it's never been used for before — party size (Cascade Seer, Drana's Silencer and Malakir Blood-Priest)
- A 6/6 artifact creature that costs 3 and a 7/5 artifact creature that can cost 3 — Relic Golem and Sea-Gate Colossus
- The return of four mana symbols that have each only ever been used on two cards before — two-brid mana (Tazri, Beacon of Unity)
- Lands that come with a choice you've never had before — Pathway lands and in general all modal double-faced cards have on land side in Zendikar Rising
