As someone who first started playing MTG in 1995, the Time Spiral block is probably my favorite block of all time.
Seeing classic characters like Lim Dul, Kaervek, Teferi, and freaking MISHRA finally get their own cards was amazing. Also, the power level of the block as a whole was super high, which was also awesome.
As a MTGO player, I'm actually happy to see Top go. Not even because of it's power level, but because it's really, really annoying to play against with the MTGO interface.
The laces are too powerful to reprint; they would distort the metagame horribly and bring us another season as bad as combo winter. Cards that powerful will never be seen again.

Yes well, seriously, distorting lens isn't being reprinted. It's a rare, and it'a unlikely they'd reprint such a boring, underpowered rare in a new set, especially a small set with a small number of rares. Reflecting Pool is a reprinted rare, yes, but it's also a popular, useful card.
Mana Crypt. Awesome. This bodes well for the rest of the set.
FYI, Dual lands are confirmed for MED2. What's -not- known yet is whether there will be all 10 of them in the set, or just 5 of them and the other 5 in MED3. There was a heated topic about this on the official wizards boards.

Edit: typos and grammar
Red green land
Land
T: add 1 to your mana pool.
T: add R or G to your mana pool as long as you control three or fewer lands.
The fetchies will rotate out long before 11th edition is released.
Uh...how do you untap the elixer infinitely?
