General Information
The set is named Khans of Tarkir.
Its expansion code is KTK.
It was formerly known by its codename "Huey".
The other two sets are unknown, but the names Dragons of Tarkir and Warlords of Khanar have also been trademarked by Wizards of the Coast.
The set will release September 26th 2014.
Creative and Story
The plane of Tarkir is war-torn by warlords.
There used to be mighty dragons on Tarkir, but they have all been killed.
It is the home world of Sarkhan Vol.
He left his home world in order to encounter dragons on other planes.
The story takes place after the
last time we saw Sarkhan.
Design and Development Teams
Mark Rosewater is the lead designer of the set.
Erik Lauer is the lead developer of the set.
Innistrad and Theros had the same lead designer and lead developer.
Design and Mechanics
Sarkhan will appear in the set.
It is a Large-Small-Large block.
They are doing something they have never done before with the block structure.
The block contains two things that players have been wanting for a long time.
One of them is something they are bringing back after a long absence.
The other is something they haven't done yet.

Predictions:
- Tribal themed.
- Gray dude up front is an Orc
- Short dude on the right is a Dwarf
- The story will involve a resurgence of Dragons into the world (Skyrim, ASoIAF...)
I don't think that short dude is so short, he's standing a bit behind the "orc" (most likely). Could still be a dwarf.
Speculation: Return of Horsemanship?

FTR someone at WoTC (Maro?) claimed that they would never bring back orcs. I think they also claimed the same or something similar for dwarves, there was some talk about having an unique brand of MTG and these races didn't fir because they were too DnD generic or something, I'm sure someone can dig the pages where this is stated.

Mogolian set kind of screams Red or black Christmas. White, Green, and Blue need to take a breather.
