Here's my speculation on Chaos legion's legendary life summer. I've been playing the game since July 2021. Since that time I've been thinking about splinterlands all day every day.
Recap of modern life summoner
Before chaos legion, Life has been all about being protective because life summoners had +1 shield, +1 hp, divine shield, and Chanseus the great offers repair, triage, and resurrect.
Chaos legion introduced general Sloan +1 archery damage. So now life is not all about being protective. Does being protective continue, or now life is more offensive splinter? I think it goes back to protective route but I can see both, so I thought about 2 scenarios.
Protective life summoner speculation
Here's my guess. I think 6 or 8 mana are most likely. The reason is that they increased the rare summoners' mana from 3 to 4. So it's possible that they do similar thing to the legendary summoners as well.
Buffs & Abilities:
I think they add +2 armor, make it void armor, and add forcefield. I think the most important ability here is void armor. What is the biggest weakness of life monsters? It is magic. Life monsters often have armors but magic ignores armor.
If this new CL legendary summoner adds void armor, life tanks get tremendous benefits. You can add multiple repairs and resurrects and it'll be really hard to go through the tank.
Void armor: Magic attacks hit this Monster's armor before its Health
Can you imagine these tanks having void armors?
Life has not been the most popular splinter but this summoner could make life one of the most popular splinters.
Offensive life summoner speculation
I'm guessing that life gets +1 magic buff because life has a lot of magic monsters! I added deathblow because that's one of the new abilities that has not yet been implemented on a summoner. I think this would be a great counter to Scared Llama (especially lama kron).
Here's the list of life magic monsters:
You can use 11 out of 16 monsters in the modern league. Those magic monsters in life are not super popular, maybe except a few. If we get +1 magic buff, it'll add a lot of value to those cards. In my opinion, adding a magic buff makes sense.
This is just my speculation from my own thoughts and hopes, coming from playing splinterlands more than half a year, thinking about the game all day every day.

Void armor for Life would be great!! I like the magic buff but leveled up Temporal Master would be so devastating...
Thank you for your comment, shingoski! I completely agree with your view on temporal master. With a magic buff, 9 damage every other turn with 3 mana! Wow. Temple Priest would be very strong too, with 5 magic damage, only 5 mana.
