Maybe Nimbus Maze is just too similar to the Tainted Cycle? Honestly i'm just as surprised as you that this wasn't completed as well.

Duskmourn is introducing two new cycles of dual lands, and one of those cycles is very similar to Nimbus Maze, so I wonder why WotC could not have simply expanded Nimbus Maze into a half-cycle of five allied-colored dual lands, rather than making another incomplete cycle of dual lands, since that would have made more sense, to me, and this issue is even more egregious in that it would take twenty lands to complete this cycle, which is made even worse still in that these lands appear to represent specific locations on Duskmourn, rather than lands that could be set anywhere in the multiverse, as is the case with Nimbus Maze.
What does everyone else say about this? Why has WotC printed another cycle of dual lands, which it would have been better to have expanded Nimbus Maze into a full cycle? I certainly am interested to hear your responses.

In this post, a user asked Mark Rosewater if any cycle of dual lands that are currently incomplete, most notably the battle lands/"tango lands" (i.e., Canopy Vista, Prairie Stream, Cinder Glade, and so forth) shall be completed, and Rosewater responded that it is more a matter of when those cycles shall be completed, rather than if they shall,, so I am very glad to hear that, as that is the dual land cycle that I most wish to see be completed, with the Horizon Canopy cycle at a close second and Nimbus Maze at third.
What does everyone else say about this? Are you glad to know that some cycles of dual lands that are currently incomplete shall eventually be completed?

seshiro_of_the_orochi Getting into some philosophical waters here. I'll dump this, then let the thread continue. (Not that I don't want to have this discussion, but we shouldn't lose track of the challenges.)
The Lorwyn tribal land cycle has all the ally colors except , with and as the only enemy color ones, and Bosk is the only one with a subtype. Plus, Primal Beyond is plonked in there, too. Definitely not any sort of typical cycle--it's not color balanced or type balanced, and two of them have different effects from the others. It's a thematic cycle, but not a cycle by color or mechanics, and I'm not sure there's anything else like that (the Future Sight lands don't count, and they're color balanced anyway).
DemonDragonJ on Why Did WotC Finish the …

WotC introduced a new cycle of dual lands, the "restless" lands in Wilds of Eldraine, and then finished that cycle in the next set, Lost Caverns of Ixalan, which was nice, as the players did not need to wait for very long for WotC to finish that cycle, but WotC finishing that cycle so quickly draws attention to the fact that they have left other cycles of dual lands incomplete, most notably the Horizon Canopy cycle and the "battle lands" cycle (i.e., Canopy Vista, Prairie Stream, and so forth), which I find to be very unfortunate, as I very much would like to see those cycles completed, at some point, and, as a side note, I very much would like to see Nimbus Maze be given a full cycle, as well.
What does everyone else say about this subject? Why did WotC finish the restless land cycle so quickly while leaving other cycles of dual lands unfinished?
DemonDragonJ on When Will WotC Finish the …

Last_Laugh, the Shadowmoor/Eventide filter lands are superior to the Odessey filter lands in the majority of situations, so I doubt that WotC shall finish that cycle, but I do share your desire to see the Horizon Canopy cycle finished, since it now needs only four more cards to be complete, and I also would like to see Nimbus Maze have a full cycle, as well.

WOTC is rather capricious as to what land cycles they finish and when.
Typically, they finish land cycles in adjacent set releases, such as the checklands in Dominaria and Ixalan (see Isolated Chapel and Glacial Fortress. But they have also quixotically completed the showland cycle with Strixhaven in 2021 (see Furycalm Snarl), despite it first being introduced on a separate plane in 2016's Shadow's Over Innistrad (see Fortified Village). They do this a lot, starting with the allies then bargaining it over to the enemies:
1995 brought Underground River then 2001 had Shivan Reef, 2010 brought Darkslick Shores then 2016 had Spirebluff Canal. These are rather large gaps, ranging from months to years.
There are plenty of land cycles that haven't been finished or haven't even begun. The five ally-colored lands from Future Sight has partially been officiated, consisting of Horizon Canopy, Grove of the Burnwillows, Graven Cairns, Nimbus Maze, and River of Tears. All of these are rather unique; two have been finished. Kind of. Modern Horizons parlously gave Horizon Canopy an enemy family. The Graven Cairns cycle was completed in Eventide and Shadowmoor. The rest are lonesome.
There's still Amonkhet's cycling cycle to finish up, so who knows when the buddy lands will be tended to.
DemonDragonJ on Commander Masters Previews and Speculation
1 year ago
Rune-Scarred Demon and Sidisi, Undead Vizier are two more cards that I would like to see reprinted.
I predict that there shall be at least one cycle of dual lands in this set, but I am not certain which cycle I would like to see, since the shocklands (i.e., Godless Shrine, Hallowed Fountain, etc.), the filter lands (i.e., Wooded Bastion, Cascade Bluffs, etc.), and the check lands (i.e., Isolated Chapel, Glacial Fortress, etc.) have all been reprinted, recently, so I think that the dual lands from the third Innistrad block (i.e., Deathcap Glade, Deserted Beach, etc.) are ideal candidates for reprinting, to keep them available and affordable. I very much would like to see the cycles for Horizon Canopy, Nimbus Maze, and Cinder Glade finished, but Masters sets are entirely reprints, so the players shall need to wait for those cycles to be finished.
Last_Laugh, I, also, would like to see the allied-colored talismans reprinted, with new artwork and quotes from planeswalkers, to make them uniform with the enemy-colored talismans.
