Khans is not another Theros. Its draft structure is like that of RTR. After the third set Dragons releases, the mainstream draft events will be switched to Dragons, Dragons, Fate. I see a chance to buy KTK cards form now (full set is around 87), during Fate Reforged prerelease events and until the time Standard becomes active again.
I have picked the following cards:
1. Dig Through Time
After the banning, it has dropped to under 2 tix. I think blue based control will keep rising and eventually dominate the Standard metagame in the next few months. Having learnt enough lessons form previous trades, I will start buying regularly but gradually. Maybe it can rest at around 0.5 - 1 tix during prerelease.
2. Flooded Strand and Polluted Delta
When blue based controls rise back to popular decks, these lands are essential to them. But there is a risk that Zendikar fetchlands are reprinted in Dragons.
3. Sarkhan, the Dragonspeaker and Ashcloud Phoenix

Decks today are filled with overabundant removals. I think creatures that can resist a number of removals should be what we use in future decks. Besides, they are both mythics, which are relatively less likely to be reprinted as promotional cards.
