We already knew of Ancient Tomb, which is one of my new favorite lands of all time, just due to how fast it can become as well as other things of course.
As well as Boseiju, Who Shelters All, which is not a bad land by stand point, but it has it's downsides, since it's a old Cavern of Souls for 2 life for Instants and Sorceries.
Cephalid Coliseum is one i didn't really talk about since it was only revealed yesterday, but honestly it's not as good as the money land in this set, Maze of Ith
And here come the junk lands, Desert is one of the least favorite lands, if they could have printed anything again i kinda wish wizards had went ahead and printed a preview land for this particular slot instead of filling it with this junk.
With any good land based set, there's always a iconic piece, Dryad Arbor is no exception to this with brand new spanking art for FTV
Forbidden Orchard is one of those lands that is kind of iconic in EDH these days, since it grants 1/1 for no cost to your opponent's but it's still a decent land regardless.
I was really excited when i saw this was coming back, since it's one of those old lands that deserved a reprint honestly, but Glacial Chasm hasn't got a lot to it anymore, but still has shown it's one of those classic magic lands that deserve a slot in this kind of thing.
Half of the iconic Grove/Punishing Fire combo in Extended and Modern, this is one of those neat lands that collectors can go goofy over, Grove of the Burnwillows is another good reason to pick this up if you want a shiny copy.
High Market is one of those lands that is commonly played in EDH these days and this is another good reason to pick up this set for the foil version of this and my next card on the list.
The mack daddy of the set, Maze of Ith is the sole reason to get this set, it's worth it's weight in gold for Magic players these days and is perhaps one of the 6 iconic lands in magic's history
Doran players are familiar with this bad boy, Murmuring Bosk is one of those rock lands that is the reason why Doran players love this sort of thing, another decent reason to pick up this set as a whole.
Shivan Gorge is one of the least desirable pieces for this set, they could have done a lot better with this, but at least it's art is different compared to last time.
For those looking for a foil version of this, look no further, Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth is one of the iconic lands in EDH these days and is reason #2 to pick up this particular FTV, pretty much paying for the set as a whole already.
Vesuva is reason #3 for this set to be picked up, since there's finally a foil version of this made available and all that, plus the fact it can copy any land is like the bee's knees of magic.
And finally the worst choice for the final slot in this set, Windbrisk Heights, which didn't need to be reprinted, but whatever, which means that there is NO preview card for RTR in this particular set this year, which is a change since the last 2 had preview cards for the sets they were featuring, breaking the cycle for the first time in FTV's history.
Anyways, that's all 15 lands in From the Vault: Realms, join me for more spoilers when Return To Ravnica starts in early september, till next spoilers this is vergil signing off
