Nice start of a cycle, the art looks like bant before the conflux.
About the not all swords in the set: it is ok, remember we got 2 swords on Darksteel then after 7-10 years we got another one in each set of the scars of mirrodin block... What would not be ok is if they printed this here then started to print the rest of the cycle in non modern legal sets.
People can argue about horizon canopy but they fail to remember that canopy is part of 2 cycle of lands: the future sight odd lands (that have been touched once with craven cains cycle of all color pairs being printed) this time they are starting to print the horizon canopy all-color-pairs cycle but they are starting with half of it and will probably print the rest in the future (maybe in a MH2...) the all-color-cycle of HC has 6 legal card in modern but the other cards of the cycle were not printed in a non modern legal set.
Now speculation: if we are getting another it will be the BR one and it will have a thought seize like effect and the red part will be the exile the top of your library and you may play it this turn.
And if the art turns out to be on alara hope we get to see a bit of Grixis

Every time I read a comment about "Well if this card had card draw/trample/haste/indestructible/hexproof/life gain...", I think "You're missing the point." They're armchair developer comments that fail to take into account the card's role in the greater Limited and Standard environment. No, it may not be as good as whatever card you're comparing it to. There's a reason for that. Not every burn spell is Lightning Bolt, nor does it need to be or should be.
PSA to everyone who keeps forgetting about the Reserved List:
You're on a website dedicated to talking about MtG. You're only a few keystrokes away from finding out what cards are on the Reserved List. You're also only a few keystrokes away from finding out why some cards on the Reserved List got foil printings in FtV, as Judge promos, or whatnot, as well as why that won't happen again. Stop doing this.
UB Wind and Rain BR Thunder and Lightning RG Life and Liberty GW Heaven and Earth
Seems that the names are designed around complementary concepts this time around instead of opposites, so Heaven and Earth doesn't fits. I also don't get the feeling the B out of "wind and rain" nor "thunder and lightning". I like Life and Liberty tho.
One thing I've noticed though is two of the existing swords (War and Famine) follow the four horseman of the apocalypse. If this is to continue, it would leaves Pestilence and Death as the remaining horsemen.
I could see Black Red being Chaos and Death, but that would then leave Black Blue to being Pestilence and something...
shot in the dark from someone with no idea, this goes infinite with Atraxa? lol
No?
What would go infinite? Atraxa proliferate on end step, this proliferates on combat damage. The abilities doesn't interact.

I want BR to be Sword of Fast and Furious so bad...
Jokes aside, this seems good but not overpowered: more in War and Peace camp than in Feast and Famine or Fire and Ice, but the demand will still be high simply for the color combination itself.
Some other possible names parsed by possible pairings:
UB - Smoke and Mirrors, Knowledge and Power, Death and Taxes, Time and Tide BR - Wrath and Ruin, Fame and Fortune, Sound and Fury, Flesh and Blood RG - Hearth and Home, Stock and Stone, Vim and Vigor, Storm and Stress GW - Heart and Soul, Kith and Kin, Hope and Faith, Loyalty and Honor

Death and Chaos seems like a good choice for BR. Compliments Life and Liberty, too. Pestilence was originally Conquest, though. Sword of Control and Conquest? Plague and Pestilence?

The blue heroic mythic from journey into nix, the sword, hardened scales+ataraxia= infinite
You need to remove 5 +1/+1 counters to get an extra turn.
Once you have one on the hero=upkeep proliferate= 3 counters
Sword equip and attack= 5 counters then 7
Extra turn, repeat but start with 2 +1+1, when it have 10 counters you get 2 turns, seccond turn you start with 4 counters and end with 10 again.

UB could be Smoke and Mirrors
Jokes aside, this seems good but not overpowered: more in War and Peace camp than in Feast and Famine or Fire and Ice, but the demand will still be high simply for the color combination itself.
UB - Smoke and Mirrors, Knowledge and Power, Death and Taxes, Time and Tide
BR - Wrath and Ruin, Fame and Fortune, Sound and Fury, Flesh and Blood
RG - Hearth and Home, Stock and Stone, Vim and Vigor, Storm and Stress
GW - Heart and Soul, Kith and Kin, Hope and Faith, Loyalty and Honor
it was a joke, hence the 'lol'. it feels like if a card says 'counters' or 'pro;iferate' or anything like that, it goes infinite in that deck
