The set only has 15 mythic rare slots, so it would be overkill to include a whole cycle. Also, remember that the original swords were doled out in 1 or 2 per set, so there's no precedent for the whole cycle ending up in Horizons.
Yeah but the original swords were doled out over the course of 6-ish months. This cycle may not be complete for 2 more years (if they release Modern Horizons 2 next year, and Modern Horizons 3 the year after).
The first two swords where made in Darksteel (2004) while the rest of the cycle was published in the Scars of Mirrodin block (2010-2011).

Sorry for my possible english mistakes, I'm not a native speaker.
We finally know what Lancer Sliver and First Sliver’s Chosen (Exalted Sliver!) are. And we get one more Sliver we didn’t know about until now: Cleaving Sliver.
This hive just feels strange the numbers are heavily skewed towards Boros, while blue, black, and green are merely afterthoughts. Weird.
Slivers is the RW limited archetype for limited so yeah, it was expected. Just like snow is the archetype for GU but you also have snow cards in the other colors.

Aren't those evergreen keywords? I guess they were left out because they can make more of them in standard sets.
Yeah, I'm excited for those two. I guess I'll be building Yuriko some time in the future

They said they could go up to Dragons of Tarkir so it was still on the list
