What about things like Isumaru, Savannah Lions, even Kird Ape? Those are all vanilla (or near vanilla with the Kird Ape), but they're all quite playable.
As to FS, reading though the spoiler as a whole, I am unimpressed. I am interested in the mash of abilities, but I don't see a billion things begging for play. The Augers suck, the Magusi are just okay, and Grandeur blows. But, I'm still going to give it a chance. My final judgement for a set usually comes after the prerelease. I like getting my hands on the cards and digging into them. Seeing how they interact. Sometimes I've overlooked things. Other times not *coughlegionscough*
Back to vanilla, the fact that there's an enchantment that pumps vanilla kinda makes me want to give it a whirl. If nothing else at least the new vanilla cards are sweet looking.
