Desert seems a little out of place. Shivan Gorge instead of Rishadan Port is a bit of a let-down too. But, all in all, pretty sweet product.
edit: ....pretty sweet product that I'm not going to buy. Desert and Shivan Gorge being the worst offenders of the bunch... When was the last time you heard "hey, you gotta foil Desert? no? Shivan Gorge?" ...yeahhhh
OH, ALSO, (pretty sure) ZERO Return to Ravnica lands.. too bad
If I were getting it, I'd be disappointed by the lack of Wasteland, but since I'm not, I'll gladly read all the butthurt posts about it (Either way I would've loved to have seen it reprinted in here).
Still, it's a decent list. I like it. Maze Of Ith is great to see.
Oh no! You have a ton of other good lands and every color is represented. Let's all cry that Wasteland isn't in here. No other money cards. Boo hoo.
Windbrisk is just so out of place. And lackluster compared to what is already in the set and what could have been in the set. And part of a cycle where only one piece is represented.
I would have preferred it be something not from a cycle.

There is no preview card from RtR in the product. Izzet vs Golgari contains the preview card of RtR which is Jarad.
Grove of the Burnwillows, Cephalid Colosseum, and Shivan Gorge are all part of cycles, as is, by a far looser definition, Murmuring Bosk.
There's even a pretty nice breakdown between the five colors here, with Windbrisk Heights standing in for white, Cephalid Colosseum in for blue, Shivan Gorge in for Red, Dryad Arbor in for Green, and Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth in for black.

White - Windbrisk Heights (From a cycle)
Blue - Cephalid Coliseum (From a cycle)
Black - Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
Red - Shivan Gorge (From a mega cycle)
Green - Dryad Arbor
All of these have been tournament cards (Shivan Gorge maybe a little less so). How is this out of place?
Pretty disappointed by this. The best cards are Maze of Ith and Urborg, which I already have multiple foils of so I don't care. Desert is totally worthless, and Shivan Gorge is almost insulting because not only is it useless, but that spot could just as easily have been Phyrexian Tower since it's the much more useful card from that cycle that isn't reserved. Bleh.

Hey look, Boseiju! Hey look, Vesuva! Hey look, Maze of Ith! Has everyone preordered now? Awesome, let's reveal the other half of the cards. They're all ****.
White - Windbrisk Heights (From a cycle)
Blue - Cephalid Coliseum (From a cycle)
Black - Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
Red - Shivan Gorge (From a mega cycle)
Green - Dryad Arbor

Dryad Arbor was from a cycle as well (Future shifted lands) and Urborg was from a cycle as well (An actual mega cycle, whereas the gorge was a regular cycle)

I feel that emeria (with new art) or flagstones of trokair would have been more appropriate for white. Desert kind of makes sense, but is unfortunate.

A little bit better than Legends but not worth the hype. Disappointing.
Hey, if you don't want it, I would gladly take it off you! And since you've paid for it already, and it'll be my birthday rather soon...

Good luck getting that amount from the individual cards.

There is none. It's been said many times this won't have any previews.

Those that complain about Windbrisk. It was quite relevant in its time with Spectral Procession. Also, it is there to fill out a cycle.
Heights - Coliseum - Urborg - Gorge - Arbor
If you have better inclusions for this cycle that aren't reserved, post them.

I like Turtles
Probably more, several of those will be much more then people think...Ancient Tomb for less then 20.00 maybe short term, but in a year or so...nope...
