I really like this set so far, no Legacy tools as of yet but plenty of fun Cube cards.

Rough List of Playable cards that profitably eat your lands:
Armageddon, Cataclysm, Impending Disaster, Bend or Break (playable may be used loosely here), Wildfire, Devastating Dreams (might be tough, considering you might not have much left in hand after a 5 drop), Devastating Force, Jokulhaups, Fireblast, Zuran Orb, Mana Vortex, Knight of the Reliquary, Devastating Summons, Small Pox, Pox, Braids, Desolation, Cosmic Larva (lol), Dust Bowl, Edge of Autumn, Ember Swallower, Greater Gargadon, Hammer of Purphorus, Harrow, Crop Rotation, Rushing River, Serendib Djinn, Sylvan Safekeeper, Tectonic Break, Thoughts of Ruin, Kjelojordan Outpost, Lake of the Dead
And maybe a couple more
Rough List of Playable Lands that profitably eat themselves:
City of Traitors, Fetchlands, Basic Fetchlands, Wasteland, Mercadian Masques CC lands, Fallen Empires Saclands, Ghost Quarter, Threshold lands,
Tectonic Edge,
Titania can probably worth completely based on incidental support and is completely insane with a lot of these cards. If you want a swingy 5 drop that isn't Wolfir Silverheart, she's certainly a consideration.

As someone who likes keeping a noticeable dose of '90s Magic in my cube, I'm excited to see Freyalise and Titania in this set. I'm going to try hard to make sure they're also useful.
I have to echo that sentiment. This feels like a set with something for everyone, not just Commander diehards. As someone who built a Titania's Song / Winter Orb / Icy Manipulator prison deck in my second year of high school that eventually became the scourge of the lunchroom, it's really cool to see these characters finally given their due.
Yeah, Freyalise and Teferi were sweet choices for planeswalkers. The fact that we're probably not going to get any other real old-school planeswalkers is sad. It'll make it easier not to buy all five decks, though.
heres for hoping that there command reprint isnt just the black one but all five of them

This looks like a lot of fun.
Titania, Protector of Argoth
Legendary Creature - Elemental
When Titania, Protector of Argoth enters the battlefield, return target land card from your graveyard to the battlefield.
Whenever a land you control is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, put a 5/3 Elemental creature token onto the battlefield.
5/3
y'all need to stop hating on my boy now

While I was making my list of effects that work with her, when I got to gargadon I started cracking up at the thought .
On a related note, he's also pretty good with reef worm.

Ecstatic Orb
I take back everything I said!
They are totally supporting my the artifact theme I run in my cube in this set. Looks like I need to get this after all
Heck yes! Living Death for artifacts, how super, super awesome is that!
Holy fuck. That planeswalker gets more awesome every time I look at it. It's totally replacing Koth of the "deal with me now or die a slow and painful death" Hammer!
Any heavy artifact themed cube should love him. He does everything red wants to do with artifacts. Puts them in the graveyard, grabs them back, & makes them recyclable.
I like him. Even though this could have easily been Slobad instead. I thought planeswalking sparks were extremely rare? Does meeting certain MtG tropes increase your odds of having a spark? Like being a trinket-loving goblin or something?

Didn't you see the word "savant"?

Yeah, that land is also made of win.
Apparently Slobad was a planeswalker for all of 5 minutes. I think WotC likes their planeswalkers a little bit more permanent fixtures. No doubt this isn't the last we've seen of Daretti. He reminds me of that guy in Morrowind by the way, the last dweomer, with the mechanical spidery legs.

So the stoneforge mystic is a planeswalker now?
Unfortunately as someone who runs artifacts on a purely "as needed" basis, the last two planeswalkers missed my mark completely. The goblin dude does seem sweet, though.

From a flavor perspective, happy to see the lithomancer. Sad to see they didn't use her for any good storytelling in an actual set. She seems good in an artifact heavy cube. Decent in any cube with good equipment options. The red planeswalker is by far the best one.
The goblin is just four mana mono red dack fayden in my list... weeeee.
He's better than Dack. Far better imo.
holy crap that's vintage LORWYN ART
*swoon*
i didn't know these badass flamekin elementals lived in quaint little hobbit-style villages... the part of the story where they chill with Bilbo was lost on me back in the day
