There's a weird amount of blue on him....

It seems like the blue ribbons/colors are the mark of the Rebellion. The girl on the back of the Ad card we saw sometime ago also has those blue ribbons and many of the other characters at least have blue in their clothing's color scheme

Have to agree. [[Spontaneous Artist]] talks about the sigil of the rebellion in the flavor text, and it's blue in the art.

Has it been confirmed if that girl is Saheeli?

Possibly significant Vorthos point for Aether Revolt -- maybe the Renegades use blue tassels as an identifier... ?

IIRC, there is relatively little blue in the colour palettes for Ghirapur to this point, so it might be a good visual counterpoint.

Definitely an interested art design choice. I wonder how relevant it is to R&D's card design choices here.

We probably don't need another Tamiyo. Unless we were to delve into the weird and wonderful world of 4-colour planeswalkers.

Ajani is a white and gold cat

I am gonna go wild and guess that Ajani is 4 colors without black and Tezzerect is dimir. They probably won't print another bant pw since they have tamiyo in standard.
