What this set is

Iconic Masters is a reprint set built around famous creatures rather than one format. Its headline reprints were the five New Phyrexia Praetors, the five Kamigawa Dragons, Avacyn, Angel of Hope and Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker, plus Mana Drain and Necropotence.

It drafted with a big-creatures theme, with ramp and defensive cards to get there.
