Haha great minds I guess.Depending on how closely they're following the comics Phoenix Saga also probably means Hellfire Club. I'm going to guess Emma Frost first appears as an antagonist, then takes on a chapter 2 Storm-like roll before becoming a class teacher at the beginning of chapter 3. The devs have also said they want to add "flings," one-off non-romances. So Emma could possibly fill that roll for chapter 2, or be retconned into it later if the flings are further down the development calendar.
Kitty Pryde had been in the comics for a decade at this point, so I'm going to guess she's going to be the inexperienced freshman who just discovered their powers and you have to help her learn to control them roll.
My guess for third girl is going to be somebody out of left field no one expects. She'll also be one of the "friends" that was gossiping about Jean in chapter 1. Not sure which character they'd use for this one. Unless the curve ball is they aged down Emma for this version. "Befriending" Jean just to gossip about her would be on-brand for Emma. If you want both you're going to have to get them to reconcile. It would tie nicely into Dark Pheonix being the chapter two boss (just my guess at this point).
I don't think they'll be too out of left field at least for the first couple chapters. There are a lot of core X-girls that need to be included first. But Psylocke could be an interesting unusual choice for that storyline. Or Jubilee.
