The GW Limited strategy for this set is landfall. Here are some extra spells/lands for that... and a random red beater. I don't know what he's doing there either.
So...can these flip either way? The way the transform icon is handled seems to imply that.
If so, that's pretty cool.
You can play these cards exactly once, as either of their faces. I will say I'm surprised about how many there are based on this spread, and some of these actually seem reasonable for what they are. Not saying they are playable in constructed but at least on curve and useful in limited as spells. Depending on how much landfall matters these could be value.
Bala Ged Recovery looks pretty neat, as it's one of the first cards in awhile in Green that can return any card type from your graveyard to your hand. Not sure how good it actually is, but it's cool to see something like this again. Oh, and also it can be a land.
Can you play these as lands out of your graveyard? Like, could I cast Khalni Ambush as an instant and then use Crucible of Worlds or something to play the land side from the graveyard later? Sorry if they said this already somewhere.

Their front face is the one that they count as in any zone that isn't in play. For all of these cards, they're not lands in non-battlefield zones so you can't do play them as lands from your graveyard.
The green ones are actually probably the best in the cycle. Indeed the green fight one is exactly what I hoped the cycle would be. Something actually useful late game to pair with the land part which is nearly always only going to be ok on T1.

This will require clarification in the rules. Currently to play a card you use only the characteristics of the card as it would exist as you play it, not the characteristics it happens to have where it is. However no DFC has allowed you to look at its backface characteristics until its flipped.
Based on current rulings I would think Crucible would allow you to play these from the graveyard.

Actually, all the current rulings I've read treat only the front of a DFC as the side that matters. I have a strong hunch that Wrenn and Six cannot (abusively) return these cards to your hand.

EDIT: Just realized there was an article explaining how they work.

Party looks absolutely horrible still, but at least I can open up these useful cards.
