this one has some potential. nothing else jumps out at a skim of the final dump (emphasis on DUMP)
so annoyed to see Cancel AGAIN, confirming no counter in the set close to good enough to justify the counterspell hate.
also no good discard. for a set with so many cards that care about discard, I would have expected another IoK level discard spell, or at least SOMETHING relevant
they really should save a couple rares for the last day. remember DRS? or an awesome reprint at any rarity
set is fine, some EDH goodies, a few definite SB Modern cards, maybe some will make waves, but it's no Kaladesh

Project Booster Fun makes it less fun to open a booster.
Trespasser's Curse is a good Copycat hoser, and may see use apart from that as well. Edric EDH also gets a new unblockable creature for U, with 1/2 PT to boot.
Not seeing anything on par with the Boros Reckoner full spoiler surprise, unfortunately.
Edit: Ahn-Crop Champion actually seems pretty sweet for an Exert-themed deck, if such a thing ends up being a thing.
For some reason I kept thinking Bolas was suppose to be in this set, when is he suppose to show up?
From the initial story articles it was clear that he's in HOU, because all of Naktamun is preparing for his return, implying that he's missing right now.
Okay, seriously, what is a "crop"? I don't think they're using the standard definition here.
Probably being used as a word to describe groups of people who are growing to try and fight through the trials to the afterlife. Makes sense when you think about Nicol Bolas harvesting strong people through the trials.
So they make ANOTHER card that searches/works with another card but isn't in the set? Like... Can we stop with that? It is not cute anymore. Search for God Pharaoh gift card and out it into play. Played with gate to the afterlife.

To the people that say that a card needs to be a higher rarity because of Limited... I hate you guys so much. I present to you with this.
Benefaction of Rhonas...Commune With The Gods is too good for Standard now?
Living End receives some nice upgrades.

Slither Blade looks exceedingly good in Limited.
BALEFUL AMMIT! Bone Picker is also potentially ass-kicking. Soulstinger is a SCORPION DEMON! Damn some of this flavor is good.
Nef-Crop Entangler looks pretty Limited-sweet, and Trueheart Twins is nasty if you're running exert.dek.
Initiate's Companion seems pretty fun. Also perfectly captures what cat ownership is like, lol.
Honored Crop-Captain is super scary. Battle cry is a great mechanic and on a 3/2 body for two, no less? EldraziTron might want Weaver of Currents.
And, okay. What the hell is God-Pharaoh's Gift?!

I actually used Cryptolith Rite as a nice rare to be spoiled on a visual spoiler day.

Pretty sure "crop" in this plane is a group of initiates preparing for the trials.
God-Pharaoh's Gift is a hinted card from Hour of Devastation.
