Mmmm... that ajani looks good.

[WWolfe]

Ajani looks like it'll be decent in the right build.

Trophy Mage will likely become an EDH staple- tutors up the Swords, either piece to the Basalt Monolith+ Rings of Brighthearth combo (both with a way to bounce Trophy Mage), Crucible of Worlds, Phyrexian Altar, etc..

Yahenni's Expertise hits a little softer than Languish but it definitely has an upside...

Scrap Trawler has some upside.

Quicksmith Rebel is intriguing, maybe a new use for Artifact lands?

[Mostlynotgay]

Yahenni's expertise is... insane. Cast "a card" with <= 3 cmc is ridiculous. I feel like this is broken. A lot.

[ladof]

Tezzeret is spoiled. UB planeswalker that could get nasty in this set if you make lots of little artifacts.

Looks like a lot of free 3 cost spells will be a mission.  Planeswalkers look promising.

[ladof]

Sigh, they're doing the two of the same planeswalker again.

I think I like the first one better (control, draw is pretty solid)

Also,

is a neat vehicle in a superfriends deck

That Tezzeret had me contemplating putting my Sen Triplets deck back together.

Tezzeret, master of metal + Mycosynth Lattice.  It'd take a minute to get out, but can you imagine? 

[robort]

Yahenni's Expertise is a sorcery so it can be used only on your turn. Nice sweeper though and then put down a 3 drop for free.
Spell Queller is going to be working double time because dropping this Heart of Kiran or the looter scooter will make it hard on your opponent.

[WWolfe]

Hmm, now I'm torn between putting my Sen Triplets deck back together and trading for another Sliver Queen to put that Superfriends deck back together.

Few more I don't see mentioned yet...

Counter for abilities... this will be fun ^_^

I'm mostly interested in Dark Intimations. Are we getting a new Nicol Bolas?  And even better, if we're getting a new Nicol, are we getting a new Ugin, too? I literally JUST got excited.

[WWolfe]

The Tezzeret spoiled already is the one for the PW decks (though it will be Standard legal).

I'd assume we are getting a new Bolas, be really weird for them to mention him the way it does and there not to be.

Looks like a heavy focus on PW's this time around with 3 cards spoiled so far already mentioning planeswalkers (Ajani, Heart of Kiran, and Dark Intimations). Plus Disallow in a way since it includes activated abilities.

I have been busy these last few weeks and I noticed some new Aether Revolt Spoilers late last night.  I pop over and see this shiny new thread full off links so I thought, "Why not post the cards so we can all see them "

I am really loving Disallow!  Not as cheap as I would have liked (2cmc a la Counterspell) but very, very awesome and a great tool for a blue control deck.  I know I will be hunting down a playset as soon as they are released.

I noticed quite a few people on other forums are complaining about Ajani Unyielding and I don't hold the same resentment.  To be fair a lot people that Liliana, The Last Hope was a terrible card but it has turned out to be fairly powerful and not just in Standard.  Ajani Unyielding is gonna be nice in a Superfriends deck.  Thraben Inspector into Smuggler's Copter into Tireless Tracker into Gideon, Ally of Zendikar into Nissa, Vital Force into Ajani Unyielding will be a very strong line of play.

Trophy Mage is another great card that was missing from Magic.  We've had Trinket Mage and Treasure Mage for a while now finally Trophy Mage that lets you find each of the Swords plus Loxodon Warhammer plus quite a few powerful 3cmc artifacts ( a whole slew of Mana Rocks, Blasting Station, Chromatic Lantern, Cloudstone Curio, Crucible of Worlds, Master of Etherium, ect.)
