A lightning helix with Firesong and Sunspeaker gains you 6 life and deals 9 damage (in packets of three)
Warleader's Helix gains 8 and deals 10.
Brightflame...depends on the boardstate, but gives you X life plus X per creature, and 6 extra damage to your opponent's face (but holy fuck that lifegain, it's actually RELEVANT)
Other cards that work with it on both sides in just RW: Energy Bolt, Arrows of Justice, Aurelias Fury, Boros Charm, Deflecting Palm, Fire At Will, Intimidation Bolt,
In other colors: Fiery Justice, Last Stand, Crackling Doom, Mardu Charm, Jeskai Charm, Naya Charm
Captain's Maneuvers and Reflect Damage don't work with it.

nope, just the usual, its bolt/counterspell with a tacked on conditional.
Kamigawa 2.0/Legends 3.0 but without any good lore or flavor because nuWotC will fuck that up hard (see: Ixalan story)
Conditional stuff is tied around creatures now, 2R for a 3 damage spell that becomes a bolt when you have a wizard

Rorix and Tarox would both be ashamed.
Modern got FUCK TRON AND STORM: the Artifact.
MAYBE the bolt/counterspell that cost more but become actual bolt/counterspell (costwise) if you control a Wizard. Lots of good wizards, after all.
>Did modern get any new toys from whats been leaked?
nothing so far beside a side tool artifact for (2) against tronfags and stormfags. wake me up when something is worth mentioning

It's trying to reword protection into their current idea of what it should be, since they consider protection not intuitive and not fun.
