Basically, if it hadn't been spoilt yet, you'll not like it as much as the rest of the week. Sphinx of the Steel Wind is the final mythic. KTK Refuges in the land slots. Crater Hellion and Pyrokinesis at rare. Some nice common and uncommon cameos, though.
Well those are some vomit inducing lands to go with.
Sphinx being the final mythic is also incredibly lackluster.
I mean, overall I am really happy with the set. There's some very questionable inclusions on top of some painfully questionable exclusions (no Worldly Tutor but they did the rest of the cycle?, no Demonic Tutor makes me sad as well).
No second white mythic. White really got the shaft in this set compared to the other colours. I'm sure there some other good white cards prior to Modern.
Looks like I will be going with singles again. There are some good reprints, but most of it is chaff. There are a couple of rarity downgrades, but none of those cards are interesting anyway. Personally I wouldn't pay $10+ for a pack.

Karakas is the second White mythic, and it's the second most expensive card in the set. White did a lot better than some other colors, like Black, which got two Legacy-banned cards.

Calling a land a colored mythic is a bit of a stretch, I don't care what color it taps for.
Awww, no Imperial Recruiter. Also, what do I have to do to get a Young Pyromancer with decent art!
Overall the set looks sweet but there is no way I am going to pay $15-20 AUS for packs of it.

I believe Green Sun's Zenith took Worldly Tutor's slot.
Where the hell is Worldly Tutor? Green is my favorite color and I'm tired of dropping $6.50 for them, with no opportunity for new template and a foil. Dammit!!

Last Mythic is Sphinx of the Steel Wind
Land cycle is the lifegain lands from Fate Reforged.
Invigorate and Pyro are nice.

Reality is only what man allows it to be. Few shape it so that many may accept it.
