A lot of playable cards that catched my eye, even though there doesn't seem to be any staple autoinclude: Apprentice Sharpshooter: Compareable to Crocanura, but a blocker that needs to attack is kind of weird. Not sure how good this actually is. I can imagine a lot of board states where you can never ship in. It feels similar to Outlast which always sounded good in theory, but in practice I never liked it, because often you didn't want to tap your creature mainphase.
Hookhand Mariner: One of the few Werewolf that is completely decent without flipping and the backside is definitely very strong, but we are getting a 4/4 for 4 with upside now every set. It's hard to find a spot at some point.
Kessig Flamebreather: I really like Thermo Alchemist and Firebrand Archer remains one of my pet cards, but This one is in a weird spot. I'm usually not a huge fan of 1/3s, but in combination with it's ability it doesn't seems super bad. I think I would need to see this in action.
Massive Might: This is actually not a horrible trick. Since you usually want to use combat tricks on the attack the trample part is quite relevant. The question is if it's worth -1/-1 compared to Giant Growth.
Persistent Specimen: This will definitely come in for me since I still support the sac archetype right now. It's just 1 cheaper than Sanitarium Skeleton for each activation.
Pyre Spawn: This seems kind of worth mentioning. For people who like having a creature at spot in the curve, even in red, this probably isn't the worst choice. It's certainly very annoying to deal with.

Cruel Witness: A better Prescient Chimera. I do kind of like it, but I'm not sure if I will find a cut.

Reckless Impulse: Probably good, not amazing though.
Scattered Thoughts: I think Foresee has been out of the race for a while. I did actually already cut Compulsive Research. I think the problem is, that we have too many good draw spells nowadays. There is Behold the Multiverse, Rain of Revelation, Treasure Cruise and Winged Words (nearly 50% of my blue creatures are flying), which are all definitely better than Foresee and also better than Compulsive Research IMO. I'm really not sure of Scattered Thoughts is better or worse than Rain of Revelation. I think they are really close. On a sidenote, there is also Deep Analysis which I think is only worth it if you can discard or mill it.
Spore Crawler: This is just a strictly better Byway Courier.
