Sorry, Majinara, I just don't see Everyone's Least Favorite Set as having many playable cards.
An-Zerrin Ruins: Decent but I'd rather play Engineered Plague.
Aysen Crusader: Cool with the update but still risky and generally overcosted.
Baron Sengir: Maybe interesting in a casual tribal deck but still heavily overcosted.
Broken Visage: Spendy and highly situational but does have its merits.
Eron the Relentless: Was a champ back in the day but holding 3 mana for regen every time you attack when you could use it for burn is why he's not useful. Plus, he's a turn 8 creature without mana accel.
Memory Lapse, Merchant Scroll, Primal Order, and Serrated Arrows: All are excellent cards and the only truly good cards from this godawful set.
Autumn Willow: Was once queen, now, over-costed. Troll Ascetic runs laps around her.
Sengir Autocrat: Was once a very useful creature. Not so much any more. Still useful with Hecatomb and def... (see all)

majinara Kamigawa block was not crap it had a lot of really good cards in it. But homelands is and always was the worst set in the game.

Her hand looks kind of small and deformed. Prune it?

Sure, Homelands was bad. Same as Legions for example, or the Kamigawa block, or the Masques block. Just saying there are lots of sets or even blocks that are utter crap.
Homelands got quite some cards that are playable even now. Like an-zerrin ruins, aysen crusader, baron sengir, broken visage, eron the relentless, memory lapse, merchant scroll, primal order, sengir autocraft, serrated arrows (especially with perist beeing around) and autumn willow. ANd there is a dozen or so more cards that are playable in the right deck.
Sure, Homelands was bad, like quite some other sets. But many people just repeat the "homelands is the worst set" phrase without ever having looked at the cards.

Wait, if she has shroud, how can she use her own ability on herself?

Wow. It's amazing how different the game become. Her power is strictly worse than Hexproof.
G for 1/1 hexproof (actually you can get it for G/U hybrid)
GG 2/3 (2/2 plus lose of one hexproof). Add 1 colorless 2-3 power 4 toughness. add legendary drawback
Today she'd be 1GG for a legendary 4/4 hexproof.

I am the only one to notice, or does anyone else see the striking resemblance the art has to Queen Cersei from Game of Thrones?

For 1v1 a weaker version hexproof on a 4/4 for 6 mana. But slap an enchantment or something on her and she can win you the game!

Oh Autum Willow...the only good card to come out of Homelands. Let's face it, Baron Sengir is really bad.
