A cycle of Horizon Canopy-esque lands that produce enemy colors and can be sacrificed to draw a card.
Example:
Sunbaked Canyon
Land T, Pay 1 life: Add R or W. T, Sacrifice Sunbaked Canyon: Draw a card. Since the river ran dry, travelers wander where fish once swam.
Just WOW, between this, Mongoose and the Black Force, spoilers this day have been phenomenal. Definitely removed the sour taste after yesterday's mythic changeling fiasco.
This thread is full of idiots... Lightning Bolt is NOT being reprinted.
Many times has a writer in Wizards said so, because of the plain and simple fact that it's too powerful for what it costs. x/3 creatures shouldn't be able to die at instant speed for one mana without a signifigant drawback. (like PTE giving you a land)
I absolutely guarantee that LB will not be printed in M10, and you can quote me on that.
I'll never understand why they will never print the full 10-card cycle of duels in one set.
Because having constructed fixer lands show up in the rare slot of 20/121 draft and sealed packs is unpleasant. “Yay, I helped my wallet; but I’ll lose today to people who opened things that’ll directly help them wintoday while I cracked incremental convenience”

Would be real neat if this is the set that completes the cycle Horizon Canopy started. Could we imagine four more "Horizon ______" named cards for the other four allied pairs?
We don't even know yet if this set will have actual reprints of currently modern eligible cards. It's entirely possible the entire set is cards that have never been modern eligible before (either new cards or cards from pre-modern or supp products that have to date not been modern legal)
While they didn’t ‘complete the cycle’ (they made five new cards of this template, not just four!) ... i kinda hope the people who flamed and heckled on my insane suggestion that there could be more lands of that template ... are eating a litttle crow now?
Oh wow! Too bad I still won't pay for the horizon ones for my humans deck, but these will be awesome in so many decks. I can't wait to play UR one in death's shadow to grow the shadow even faster and get a card late game. Just awesome.

you being personally offended by the audacity of Commander existing, while everyone else is ecstatic about the card, is not a "fiasco".

Dude, the mythic changeling is awesome. Not every card in the set is for competitive modern, many of the cards are for other formats, such as Pauper and Commander.
As for the lands, they are awesome, and many of them will see play in multiple formats.

It's about time for the reserved list to die, for the sake of Vintage and Legacy (And Commander).
I would have rather seen enemy bicycle lands, but these are great of course, albeit frustrating. Has WotC given up on completing cycles, or is it just taking years & years? Unbalanced fixing distorts what decks we play. Having 6/10 is bizarre.

My hunch is that the ally color cycle will probably show up in "Archery" if it shows up at all. It could be in Core 2020, but this might be a little too much value for a core set land cycle.

Check my Pauper Cube!
These are cool though, it'll be interesting to see how other color combinations start fitting these into their lists.

That being said, my favorite color pairs are here, so I am content.

Wow....determining the land base for cube just got way harder.
Yeah, that makes sense.

Also glad I didn't shell out for canopies as these will work just fine...just fine.
My wallet is crying out in anguish, haunted by the pain to come.
