I think the 2 toughness in exchange for instants/sorceries on Aven Wind Mage is actually a substantial increase in utility over Jeskai Windscout but I still don't see myself playing it.
Fight with Fire is in at uncommon. Might be a decent alternative to "X" spells like Fireball since it's so much better at killing mid-size creatures (though bad at dealing your opponent seven or eight damage)
... and nothing else particularly playable? Huh. I guess there wasn't a huge amount of cards left to reveal, but still a bit of a let-down.
Well it can't do 8 damage to your opponent, but at the same cost as doing 8 with fireball, it can dome them for 10.
Green ponder! Oath of nissa is a fine card in rare cubes even without the second line being relevant. Is this better than any of the 2 cmc dig 5 options? Or are they different enough ala impulse vs ponder that both would be good?
Didn't expect Urgoros, the Empty One to be an uncommon. It may be good as a black finisher? It's pretty fragile for it's cost, but is evasive and will win you the game very quickly.
3 mana is high enough that the ramp is marginal and the body might be better. i recall some previous discussions where people really valued the 2/2 body on wayfinder over the cheaper cost of sylvan ranger.
there's less than a 50% chance of getting 3 forests in a 9/8 mana base on turn 5. every fixer you have that also increases your G count decreases that chance. all of the basic land type matters cards are basically awful unless you specifically push mono colored themes

Instant
Draw a card. Until end of turn, target creature gains trample and gets +1/+0 for each card you've drawn this turn
Looks like a cool combo card
First one. Looks like a cool value engine but might be too expensive and fragile.

I actually like this a decent amount for a red 5.
