What cards, other than Fiery Temper will be reprinted in SOI? I'm thinking possible reprints are Big Game Hunter, Frantic Purification, Grave Scrabbler, Obsessive Search, and Psychotic Episode. Thoughts?
Personally I think Chandra, Flamecaller would be a great madness enabler with her 0 Ability.

Probably do a Jund build with Chandra, Flamecaller and Madness effects for her 0 ability w/ 
for ramping and Oath of Nissa for easier casting for Chandra

Oh fuck you're right, Chandra is nuts with madness, but you know what else is? Fucking jace. Looks like dark jeskai is back on top. On another note, Avaricious Dragon might finally see play with madness.

A friend at my LGS said he would riot if they didn't reprint Big Game Hunter. Although I would be both interested and horrified if they reprinted Circular Logic.

@JWiley129 What exactly does Circular Logic do other than being a 3-mana counter? The madness on CL only matters if there is a spell on the stack under the one that's making you discard.

TheAnnihilator - Jace, Vryn's Prodigy will still be in Standard. That and other discard outlets make Circular Logic absurd. We probably won't have the best madness enablers like Aquamoeba or Wild Mongrel, but Jace is a good place to start.

Circular logic works well with baby jace. When you need to counter something just tap him to loot and counter (Beyond jace there are other looters, it's just that he is the best in standard)

TheAnnihilator, think of how insane dispel is in standard right now. Circular logic is nearly the same except it counters anything. Jace both enables and feeds circular logic. Also I'm sure they'll print some madness enablers that will make it so that there is essentially a one mana counter in standard.

I'd like a Obsessive Search
