Today was the first day of official spoilers from Wizards of the Coast! We got the usual day-one crop of new Mechanics, limited bombs, and a standard playable or two (not to mention Jori En, the new Merfolk Wizard who's got players from a lot of different formats talking)!
     Other standouts are Spatial Contortion (a Nameless Inversion-like removal spell that requires colorless mana to be cast), and Stone Haven Outfitter, which may fit into budget Modern equipment decks and could see some Standard play if we get some decent equipments.
      Reckless Bushwhacker looks like an explosive option for red aggro decks, allowing us to swing for good damage on turn 3 when paired with a 1-drop or massive damage on the 4th turn when paired with, say, Goblin Piledriver. Bushwhacker looks especially good in a format with Dragon Fodder and Hordeling Outburst.
     Comparative Analysis could see 1-of play in control decks, and maybe 2-or-3-of play in Sphinx's Tutelage decks for the tryhards. 
     On top of that, Allies and Eldrazi were spoiled along with the Support mechanic and the Cohort mechanic, both of which look solid for limited play.
