I really adore Innistrad dragons for artwork. Much more elegant than Tarkir ones.
Playwise, it can be double-edged sword if your opponent targets YOUR dragon and all HIS creatures with pumping spell.
Mirrorwing Dragon seems quite powerful to me, especially in the current standard meta. It's toughness will mean that it probably won't die to anything in a 1-on-1 combat and its ability means that it cannot easily be removed. Seems like a good card to stabilize with.
Oh, and it's a dragon, which is important right now. Actually means it combos a little with Thunderbreak Regent, and having both out will cause real headaches for control players wanting to use removal.
I like spells like the blue enchantment, it is fun playing with someone elses cards. I was wondering when we would get a dragon for this set and this one is a good take on the group buffing that red has been getting lately, if your opponent wants to single target it then they better like losing all of their stuff too.
Dragon seems good; kinda wish he was a 5/5 though. I hate that weirdness of the stats. It's cool you can use him as a target for pump up spells, or you can use it as almost an anti-spot removal if your opponent is running creatures as well.
The enchantment is pretty... expensive... and doesn't do a whole lot necessarily, but it looks like something that could be fun I guess.
So...for 1 more mana you get a 4/5 non-legendary Zada, Hedron Grinder that also reflects potential removal back at the opponents creatures?
Seems...legit, I guess.
Nice flying, improved zada, hedron grinder. You want to kill my dragon? Wipe your board. Looks standard playable.
The blue enchantment reminds me of the usual goofy red enchantment, except, since it's blue, it's actually a nice ability. Obviously busted in EDH. Oh!, and it makes instant bounce spells hilarious... "Want to cast that? In response, I'll bounce your game-winning permanent and have it join my side..."
The blue enchantment is so janky it is amazing. I think I need one for a special brew. That said, I don't expect it will see play. It is worth noting that it is once EVERY turn. So if they cast something on your turn, it works. In a prison deck, this could be good. Just fill your deck with more answers and let their deck do the winning for you.

blue enchant is .... blue I guess.
dragon is not bad but I fear it will not see play as long as there is sylvan advocate and dromoka's command in the same deck.
Dragon doesn't look any good to me, but I've been wrong before. The fact that it can just eat and edit spell and that his stats are really underwhelming for its cost are kind of a bummer. That said, it stonewalls avacyn and gisela, but then you can't attack with him in your big red deck. Hmm, I think I like goblin dark-dwellers much more in the curve.
Blue enchantment is absolute garbage. I think when you're printing a big flashy card like this make it be like omniscience, that is actually cool and win games. This enchantment has a total unpredictable effect and will be played in the EDH decks that run things like grip of chaos and eye of the storm just to make everyone miserable.

It only works when you cast a spell. The rest of the spells are not cast but rather copies but directly on the stack. It only triggers once if the original spell only targets one Mirrorwing Dragon.
and a really, really bad enchantment.
alright.
Feel free to tell me yours!

Final edit: How does Mirrorwing Dragon's ability work if multiple Mirrorwing Dragon's get targeted with the same spell?
play 4x draconic roar
4x silumgar's scorn
rattlechains, dimensional infiltrator
then maybe throw in slip through space and the like to replenish your hand. i wish defiant strike was still around...

Blue enchantment needs more Starfield of Nyx in its life.
And then you resolve it against them, and they regret every decision they've made in life.
It should be a Legendary UW Spirit or Spirit-tribal creature: all the other tribes got one (Ulrich, Gisa and Geralf, Olivia, Sigarda).

I have to admit though that I like haste on my five mana mythic mono red dragons, but it sure is more playable than most red mythics.
Stay reasonable, be mindful of your expectations and don't feed the trolls.
