Draw/go would go ga-ga over the land base in this set, between this and spawning bed you have 8 lands that can produce card advantage at the opponents EoT. Horizon Canopy was an all-star just replacing itself, but getting a +1 draw CA on a land isn't something I can easily evaluate, as it hasn't been done before outside of library, has it? I mean I must temper that by saying nivix, emeria and eye of ugin or the various hideaways start to be a fair comparison when we look at stuff that only comes online with 7+ CMC, but, like spawning bed, it will see a home somewhere and prove itself.
What's the card above it? Is that a Pilgrim's Eye reprint?

That's really good even though it takes 7 mana. If you have that much mana instant speed card advantage without taking up any slots seems rather good. It would be better if it produced colored mana but I guess they wanted to play it safe.

Super cycling land that gives you mana before you use it? Seems quite good. It will make it into some into some competitive two-color control lists, for sure.
Why couldn't these be a cycle of beautiful lush Zendikar lands
why this
Because... It's blighted, and the essence is being drained from Zendikar by the Eldrazi leaving it a husk like waste of a planet? Just my guess.
There are like a thousand Eldrazi cards depicting that. I wanted to return to Zendikar. So show that. Then again if Ulamog is getting defeated this set the next one is probably more Zendikar (as a plane) focused with less Eldrazi.
I was hoping the remaining land slots are some kind of mana fixers in common or uncommon slot. This one is good, but now I'm starting to worry about the stabilization in limited.

That is a very good point. I have no idea how converge is supposed to work in limited. We have Evolving Wilds as our only reliable mana fixing at this point.

StaffIt is supposedly a 5-card cycle but no word on what the others do.
Also, the card above it looks like a Pilgrim's Eye reprint.

I'm looking forward to seeing how limited comes together in this set. There are a lot of big mana sinks.

Though now I wonder if this is how they're going to help colorless commander decks have more lands instead of solving the Barry's Land issue...
Because this is the Eldrazi parade. The lush Zendikar lands will hopefully come next set.

It has the same artist, so probably.
If I had to pick out of those three I'd prefer life gain, but the other two are absolutely worthless for my deck.

StaffWhat would you have it do, if not any of white's staple effects? Disenchant? Exile?

I don't know how much I like these for a standard with the new duals, but this sort of cycle is extremely promising for my peasant cube.
