"I certainly considered playing my black and knew immediately I was going to play blue. Sphinx of Jwar Isle dies to nothing in the format except Day of Judgment and the situational Gatekeeper of Malakir and, and it could fly in formation with a squadron of cheap fliers carrying Equipment."
It also mostly dies to Gomazoa, unless the game goes very long or you're a lucky master (though the double 'and' in this sentence suggests maybe you had it in there at some point?)
As to Zendikard predictions, I'm pretty sure at least one Day of Judgement will be in the T8, though that's also a pretty safe bet.
