First, the Plowbeasts were Yoked. Then, they were Vagrant. Now, they are Sanctum?

Lame.

These cards are overcosted even in limited. Just cycling-enablers.

Plowbeat being yet another cycler, but I really like the art for it.

Sojourners is neat, I'll give it that. Three mana to draw a card and pump a creature

Nice cards for limited. With all these cycling cards they might as well do a multicolor version of Lightning Rift or Astral Slide. Really like the first one for limited, decent size for its cost but it's the cycling battlegrowth that makes it cool.

5/3 for 5 that boosts things whenever it leaves play OR is cycled for 3? Hmm....I like it. Not constructed, but should be quite silly for Casual and Limited. THe plowbeast is cool, too, but why is a 3/6 for 5 slapped with Defender?

Everything with cycling is overcosted. It's a side effect of the mechanic.

I like how the guy even said there were FOUR other Sojourners in a cycle, so he inadvertently spoiled the existence of the other shards' sojourners

I like the Naya Sojourners added bonus for cycling OR dying. That's a nice, unexpected twist. I might just have to run a few of these in my 5 power deck that I'll be making. Not a fan of the other, but hey, what do you really expect for a card with two types of land cycling? It's still has it's uses, and that's fine.

So far, I haven't seen any blatantly terrible cards from this set..

Still wanna see the Bant cycle the most. I can predict the rest honestly, but that one is a wild card for me.

So, we have:

Bant Sojourners
2gwu
Creature - Human Knight
When you cycle Bant Sojourners or it is put into a graveyard from play, put 2 1/1 Soldier tokens into play.
Cycling 2w

Also, Naya Sojorner's marks the first occurrence of the contraction "it's" in a card. In a grammatically incorrect fashion too.

How is it grammatically incorrect? It's fine the way it is.

EDIT: If you're referring to the fact that "Sojourners" is plural, keep in mind that any mention of a card's name in the text box is the same as it saying "this card". So the text is using "Naya Sojourners" as a singular reference to the card, not a plural reference to the elves themselves.
