 MTG Salvation - Article - Vintage: Spotlight on Ravnica
Ravnica seems to be my favorite kind of set.
Of course out of all the cards in the entire Ravnica block, perhaps the most anticipated cards are the new "dual lands." These cards are functionally the same as the original duals, however they do carry a 2 life drawback if you want them to come into play untapped.
While these cards are probably not going to have a signifigant impact on the deck types being played in the format, we will hopefully be seeing an influx of newer players who can finally get their hands on the lands they need to play better decks in Vintage.

Ravnica offers many of these alternatives in its common and uncommon slots.
One caveat of Transmute is that you must be playing with Blue and/or Black, but this downside is not quite as detrimental in Ravnica block due to its multicoloured nature, which brings me to my next point...

 Ravnica Mafia - Magic: the Gathering Forums
The Wojeks, Ravnica’s police force and the most visible arm of the Boros Legion, were on the scene in minutes and cordoned off the area, and with very little solid information, rumor spread through the crowd like wildfire.
The resulting explosion had destroyed the interior of the café and splattered large amounts of Red and Blue (from the Vedalkens of the Azorious delegation) and tiny splatters of Green (from the goblin) across the walls of the surrounding market stalls.
One of the peculiarities of Ravnica’s murder statutes is that the killing of a Wojek officer takes priority over any other matter.

 Ravnica Constructed Set Review Part V: Green Cards, by Mike Flores - a Magic: the Gathering Standard / Type II article
I realize that Ravnica has several cards based around tapping, but even so, I doubt that Call to Glory will be good enough, and it costs 2GG less than Dryad's Caress would for purposes of untapping a lot of creatures.
Some threats jump out at you, like Vinelasher Kudzu, which would give Quirion Dryad a run for its money and seems like a great tag team partner to Watchwolf, especially in a color that is used to accelerating via Kodama's Reach or teaming up with Meloku the Clouded Mirror.
Life From the Loam and Chord of Calling are both straight up insane sources of card advantage; one of them is literally the perfect compliment to the Dredge mechanic, and will set up a Golgari deck to run with control opponents on card economy while they present must-counter threats every turn.
