Default [FS] Dust of Moments and others (Rumored)

So as I drove home last night in the rain, the droplets of water arranged in some interesting shapes on my windshield. (Did I mention my windshield wipers don't work?) I was driving, so I didn't pay attention.
When I woke up this morning, the shapes left some annoying streaks on my car.
I think they are cards?

Bloodshot Trainee 3r
Creature - Goblin Warrior (U) [FS]
: Bloodshot Trainee deals 4 damage to target creature. Use this ability only if Bloodshot Trainee's power is 4 or greater.
2/3

Dust of Moments 2w
Instant (U)
Choose one - Remove two time counters from each permanent and each suspended card; or put two time counters on each permanent with a time counter on it and each suspended card.

Quiet Disrepair 1g
Enchantment - Aura (C)
Enchant artifact or enchantment
At the beginning of your upkeep choose one - Destroy enchanted permanent; or you gain 2 life.

Edge of Autumn 1g
Sorcery (C) [TS]
If you control four or fewer lands, search your library for a basic land card, put it into play tapped, then shuffle your library.
Cycling - Sacrifice a land (Sacrifice a land, Discard this card: Draw a card.)

The red commons are quite good in limited. They are really pushing the damage dealing stuff. Must say that Edge of autumn has nice design, good acceleration when you need it and costless cycling when you don't. Limited material, to be sure, but solid.

Bloodshot Trainee - shouldn't this be a giant? Still, whatever. Hard to pull off in limited, but well worth it.

Dust of Moments - Block Chronozoa deck. That is all.

Quiet Disrepair - Well designed card. Will see limited play and casual constructed play.

Edge of Autumn - Why doesn't this have some lame "if you have 4 or more lands, gain 2 life" or something clause? Okay in block constructed (G/W!!) but lame even in limited.

I don't understand where all these cards are comming from. I know Wizards has had problems with leaks in the past. However I also thought that had been delt with via a harsh lawsuit and stern words. If I remember correctly, Planar Chaos didn't have much in the way of rumors till two weeks prior.
So what changed between Planar Chaos and now?

Wizards didn't count on there being a Dutch Babe, Aliens, Cereal Messages, Fortune Cookies, Car Chases, and other mysterious card-revealing happenings.

The goblin i like. drop him, then toss flowstone embrace on him. tap the enchantment, then smash face without haveing to perminantly sacrifice toughness, or be forced to attack each turn.

What a strange activation for damage on the red card, novel idea, but abit weird for general use. Dust of Moments is pretty cool approach to the whole suspending stuff, both of the green cards are cool to...

Trainee- interesting design but only really usable in limited and only if you have a few permanent pump effects.

Dust- Either keep your vanishing creatures around for 2 extra turns or accelerate out your suspend cards(or kill opponents vanishing creatures or delay their suspend cards). Limited solid, possibly playable in the right block deck.

Quite Disrepair- its either a slower than sorcery speed Naturalize or a decent way to gain 2 life a turn. I'm not sure if it'll see play outside of limited sideboards, but it might be worth testing.

Edge of Autumn- a really well designed card, early game it gives you mana acceleration late game it for no mana lets you sac a land and draw a card. Really nice with Flagstones of Trokair.

I like the green enchant one its like Living Artifact but even better then that thing was.

About the leaks they only really got pissy when R_E spoiled cards that were not even close to coming out like 6+ months early. They have had people give info this early for a long long time and they don't try to stop it that much. Unless its an employee giving the leaks they don't like that.

Yeah that land search card is better then Rampant Growth I would say its much more versatile and growth is really only good early game in most decks.

Quiet Disrepair would be pretty fun with the "enchantment ball" trick using Simic Guildmage.

Being predominantly a limited player, I must say that I really like Edge of Autumn. Bloodshot Trainee is a good pickup of you've got something like Undying Rage already. He techs out reasonably well with Shaper Parasite, allowing Shaper to effectively shoot an x/4 instead of just an x/2. Otherwise, I can't say I'd be too thrilled about playing a 2/3 for 3r. The other two are fairly meh. Quiet Desrepair is utter jank, and Dust of Moments seems pretty narrow in its uses.

I like how Quiet Disrepair seems to be a pun on the phrase "quiet despair."

Nice design too, though it's not enough lifegain to be playable in constructed (for that, you need mass lifegain like Martyr of Sands).
