No, that would be 2021. 2020 is their water park expansion.

I think it has the potential to disrupt the eastern theme park market.

Pantheon looks like it'll be fun...
Iron Gwazi looks like it'll be INCREDIBLE.
I’m much more excited for this tbh. Might be my inner intamin fan speaking though haha
Me too. Nothing against Iron Gwazi at all for it looks amazing, but I do have a soft spot for very creative looking Intamin coasters.
I'm completely torn on outward banked turns. I just hope it's a gentle feeling and not as if you are being ejected. My old age is starting to get to me 
Outward banks can only be comfortable if ejector air. As conventional banked turns align positive forces, outward banks align negative forces. You're thrown out of your seat but more or less straight out of your seat. Also, ejector air, unless ridiculous, is great back therapy, like those things that hang you upside down.I'm completely torn on outward banked turns.

I'm not sure I agree with you on that all. If you are being forcibly thrown then you have the restraint to worry about. That is my point. I think of Twisted Timbers and how in the back seat I find it uncomfortable on my legs.
RMC has very uncomfortable restraints IMO. I anticipate these Intamin bars to be more comfortable.
I’ve heard nothing but good things about these Intamin restraints - they look so much more comfy than skyrush’s
To my eye, these (below) are the first three bona fide "holy shit" Pantheon photos, truly reflecting the altitude and disposition of that outward banked high turn as a BGW guest will see it. Wow.
Can't wait to see trains zipping over that section of the layout. Not to mention experiencing it.
Not a great habit to quote others' photos in posts (?), so hopefully I get away with it once and then never do it again.

From what I've seen, looks like the park is BANKING on this one being big a hit.
Am I banned yet? That was truly terrible, sorry I couldn't resist. ?

Some of TT's hills are more yanky than others, I hold on to the bar after the cutback through the trick-track and the last little hills. The reverse bank is intense but not too strong.
Looking at the pics, this does look different than RMC's outward bank. Much more tilted, the pull should be into the track which would make that mild ejector in the vertical plane, pulling mostly horizontal. It's also big. Sweet!
The interesting thing I've found on TT is that if I tense up/grab the handle thing, it feels a lot rougher.
When I just put my hands up, relax and submit to RMCs, that's when they feel amazing.
