My money on the next big death would be on Ironwood; within the story itself not much is lost, as he isn't friend or mentor to the group, while being a major victory for Salem's forces and a massive blow for the world as a whole.

There are already signs that this could happen; since the start of season 7 we've seen him as a lot more human; tired and trying to do his best to protect Atlas and the world the best way he can think of. His joy that Opzin had returned wasn't feigned and I think even the hug he gave Qrow was truly heartfelt.
