Yep, the remainder of M15 is being spoiled right now as you read this! At least that's what the site says... check it out for yourself!
@Dalektable...
The problem with using Polymorphist's Jest in control is that it doesn't remove anything. You will still need to damage or shrink these frogs in order to kill them.
I could see using it as sideboard against Hexproof, Slivers, and a few other deck types... but without another good/reliable method of turning this into removal, I wouldn't rely on it. - Khans still to be spoiled... perhaps there's something still to come.

Does anyone think Izzet/American control could be a thing past rotation? Circle of Flame + Polymorphist's Jest makes for a pretty nasty combo of sorts...plus now we'll have Dissipate and Dissolve along with any other goodies kharns gives us. It has good finishers in Keranos, God of Storms , Stormbreath Dragon and Prognostic Sphinx . Thoughts?

I like the Circle of Flame idea... they attack, the triggers go on the stack, then turn them into frogs.
Still not sure it's a control thing... I think Circle of Flame works better in a creature vs. matchup, giving you that extra 1 damage before combat, allowing you trade up more often than not.
Circle of Flame in a control deck will usually still allow them to get through, as you won't have many (if any) creatures to stop them.

Circle of Flame would be pretty good in a control deck. think about it. control is pretty weak against sligh decks and fast mono black agro decks, Circle of Flame stops Firedrinker Satyr , Foundry Street Denizen , Gnarled Scarhide , Tormented Hero , Akroan Crusader and his tokens, and a number of other cards. I think at the least it will see sideboard play in any control deck with red.

Goddamnit..Back to Nature ...just...Goddamnit!! Welp... maybe MONO green with a splash of black for that big ole garruk? Maybe MONO white soldiers? talk about raining on a parade. Sure did throw a monkey wrench in what i was wanting to play in standard. Oh i guess i can try MONO blue artifact what with some of the kick ass stuff that deck type can do now.

I like the idea of attacking with a 5/5 Bident of Thassa ... 5 damage and card draw from one creature.

Rayenous Darksteel Citadel and Ornithopter seem like better targets to me. T2 5/5 for either. One with flying, one with indestructible.

True.... Bident of Thassa is probably a horrible target. Dies to Creature removal, Artifact removal, and Enchantment removal... I just like the flavour behind the Bident causing it's own card draw.

Emrys, I was making preparations to lay How To Kick Ass With Codex Shredder 101 to rest. Wonder if Khans will revitalize it even more...

Ohthenoises yea I know it targets only one (most of the time I could see it being targeted towards me haha), my one true dream will be achieved when I find a way to cast it on every opponent at the same time
