Actually, do y'all know of a website that lets you search by alphabet? Like does Scryfall let you search for lands whose dictionary entries would be between"Pendlehaven" and "Rishadan Port"?

Gatherer allows regular expressions. If you add m/^(p|q|r).*/ to the name field of your criteria, it'll only show cards that start with p, q, or r. Fairly easy to browse down to Pendlehaven and then look at the results listed until you get to Rishadan.

Here's a list of candidates (not part of a cycle or at least not a color-fixing one):
I am hoping for Engineered Explosives. Really hoping. I went out and bought a family-sized box of Froot Loops to celebrate the Sunburstiness of the card. I accept it might end at Mythic, but this would be a sweet reprint.

no sorry
animar ruined everything for karn and explosive
the only mythics left is the other green and whtie ones
and the green one i will be udderly shock if its not Doubling season
The number of cards that can be #45 is surprisingly small with only 11 valid cards that fall between "Blue Sun's Zenith" and "Brain Storm" (you'd see 13 in gatherer but Blurry Beeble is silver bordered and Braingeyser is reserved and too similar to BSZ anyhow). There's no obvious inclusion either, as most of those 11 cards already have their set represented. My guess? Troll inclusion of Bonds of Quicksilver at common as a representative of Scars of Mirrodin. Bouncing Beebles as a representative of Urza's Legacy is also plausible. My hope will be Brain Freeze or Borrowing 100,000 Arrows getting their first foil new card face treatment.
If Brain Freeze is an option, I'd put my money on that.
I'm hoping for Elspeth knight errant because I can't think of anything else of decent value to throw in that spot.

1. (Ravnica Allegiance): You can't keep a good esper control deck down... Or Wilderness Reclamation... or Gates...
2. (War of the Spark): Guys, I know what we need! We need a cycle of really idiotic flavor text victory cards! Jace's Triumph...
3. (War of the Spark): Lets make the format with control have even more control!
doubling season may still have a shot for rare (not very likely)
i just remembered tooth and nail is still in the running
and i still think demonic tutor still has a chance for rare despite how low the cmc for tutoring anything is it was printed at uncommon once. (bad news is that uncommon print was just simply a duel deck)
I'm hoping for Elspeth knight errant because I can't think of anything else of decent value to throw in that spot.
I'm thinking Gideon, Ally of Zendikar for the White Mythic; what else are they going to get to represent BFZ? Ulamog is the only other worthy card in the set, and I think they'll wait to reprint the Eldrazi in a single set.

Animar murdered all hope for colorless cards all together for this.
Animar is #196 and the last green is #195
And also colorless starts a #001 in every set as well by akroma's vengeance at #003 I think there's no colorless either

So karn and eldrazi's are out.
Colorless cards go at the beginning. Karn, Liberated was 1/175 in New Phyrexia. Elder Deep-Fiend is 5/203 in EMN. That is how they work. There are only 64 mono-white black bordered cards in the history of MtG that come before Akroma's Vengeance alphabetically according to Gatherer...none of them are even 1/10 as iconic as Karn, Ugin, or Eldrazi. I say with some confidence that at least one of 1 and 2, and maybe both, are colorless cards.

That sounds good in terms of number crunch, but wouldn't that buck the rarity trend? (13/15 Mythics spoilered, with 1 White and 1 Green to go.)
Not saying that's impossible, mind, but it seems less likely we'll get a more Mythics than finishing off White and Green.

They’re not representing every set at the rare or mythic level. BFZ can get represented by low-rarity utility like Anticipate or Stasis Snare.

I can see Ugin as the candidate for Fate Reforged, since it has NEVER dipped below $20. He is iconic, and we do have Nicol Bolas (the creature) in the set. Frankly, it could be a good way to put out a non-foil version of the Promo art.

Yes, it is possible, but Gideon AoZ absolutely dominated Standard for the whole 2 years he was legal: he was often played as a 4-of in any decks that could play him. If WotC is going for "Nostalgia" (for BFZ Standard? Ha!) or for impact on their respective Standard format, he should be in, especially if we rule out Eldrazi and any Devoid card.
animar, soul of elements got a slot
These cards
Made me say they are reprinting
I mean it couldn't be a coincidence that these 4 cards were all staples in animar
-Petrified Field
-Phyrexia's Core
-Phyrexian Tower
-Pillar of the Paruns (makes less sense w/ the deprioritized fixing)
-Quicksand
-Radiant Fountain
-Rath's Edge
-Reflecting Pool
-Reliquary Tower
-Rhystic Cave
-Riftstone Portal
-Riptide Laboratory
EDIT: Animar also crunches out any colorless cards at #001 unless the colors are imbalanced.
Draft my cube! (630 cards)
I think the other green mythic should be doubling season
If #223 is not crucible of worlds it's not in this set.
It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest to see it upshifted to uncommon.
I'm calling 240 as Gemstone Mine.
-A signpost uncommon for each color pair
-A rare for each color pair that hasn't gotten one yet (UB, BG, GU, RW)
but we'll see.
