I kind of wished the limited the cards to contain only cards from KTK block. Not that I don't want to see Hornet Queen in a deck, but I would much rather like to see only cards from KTK and FRF for flavor reasons.

You have to wait till the end of 2015 or maybe 2016 for that, and by that time, all future intro packs won't have core set cards in them.
I do wonder why Born of the Gods and Journey into Nyx intro packs don't have core set cards, and Fate Reforged does? Did they decide to go "backwards"? Another thing to note is that this is the first set to have rares from the core set, in which the intro pack itself isn't from the core set. Theme Decks and the early intro packs up to and including Mirrodin Besieged had both rares from the set the intro pack is supposed to represent. Then from New Phyrexia to Khans of Tarkir, every small set intro pack has the non foil rare be from a rare that isn't from the intro pack it represents, but from a set from the same block. Now we get non-core set intro pack non foil rares from core sets. I can't really complain about this, considering how this is probably the only time this will happen (depends on whether they decided to put "M16" cards in the one or two blocks after that), but c'mon man.
I really enjoy that the Intro Decks have the promo card. While my inner collector squirms at the extra cards I'd need to acquire, I love seeing different artwork for cards. That promo Archfiend looks sick.

Nothing too important to note, except the Black deck has a Hornet Queen in it.
