Turns out this is secretly a preview of Theros-block's duel-land cycle. And it's a full cycle, too - both allied and enemy color pairings.

As A3Kitsune implied, this is going to be strictly worse than the scrylands from Theros, like Temple of Triumph.
They're all going to be rare. They're decent. But being CIPT-lands, i feel like they should have been uncommons only.
Shards of Alara's tricolor-taplands for instance were also uncommon. Zendikar's lifegain taplands were also uncommon. Admittedly, Zendikar had another rare cycle and was a land-centered Cycle, also had the rare CIPT-manlands in Worldwake, and scy is usually worth more than one life, and there are going to be a couple of cards in Theros that interact with it (similar to how Onslaught's Astral Slide triggers with Cycling). BUT STILL.

I think that the Theros lands were rare because they have little to no play in limited. Unless you're already in those colors, they basically waste a rare slot.
