All of the Mewtwo-EX Full Art cards have amazing art!
My favorites, as always, are the clay models.
Also, the FA Mewtwos are visually the strangest main set cards I can recall ever seeing before.

I can't think of any other FA EXs that retain the yellow border of regular cards... Mind you, I think they look awesome!
Hats off to Mitsuhiro Arita, guys!! These artworks are Gen I flavored, and I freaking like it!
I believe that Golurk from AOR counts as 2 types for Xerneas' rainbow force attack, if so it can hit for 190, without skyfield (and without a muscle band). That could be for a DCE with Florges in play, and you could include Florges break too! (for use with power creation). Really strong for a non-EX basic!
I think that alot of these guys have potential with Vileplume AOR; Vanilluxe, Starmie, Noctowl.

Really liking that magnemite being able to get that decreased retreat cost. Makes opening with it as active less painful.
Swoobat Trick Coin also sounds like a fun deck. Will have to give it a try, at the very least.
Seeing more cards that discard special energy. This is nice.
Ursaring would have been interesting if it weren't overcosted.
Love the full arts, all of them. Especially the Mewtwo EX's full arts.

Those full art Mewtwos are fantastic, I love the overall increase in quality of artwork over the years and this is a great up for a set full of weird gold Pokemon.
Also, with this leak, you guys should check out my set list discussion thread for BREAKthrough (previously was for Red Flash/Blue Impact but we know all of the cards from them now). The only 3 cards were missing are 3 trainers from the Noivern BREAK half-deck.

Bit of a disappointing set so far, imo. Though I do want to try out Magnezone/Smeargle/variants. Or even non-AT Sceptile/Smeargle/variants. Or Bronzong/Smeargle/variants.
Okay, I just want Smeargle. That card is so awesome and sets up so much potential for decks and is an interesting, creative ability.

Maybe you didn't look right or perhaps you're joking. I can't tell... But they're borders are gold actually. Which might indicate they will be Secret Rares. I don't hope so because I want them really bad!
Also Sycamore was in the set Phantom Forces right? why does it need a reprint already?
I can see the Mega Mewtwo w/ Psychic Infinity as a backup attacker w/ Gengar-EX plus Dimension Valley, Mystery Energy + Weakness Policy/Float Stone, and BT Gengar to make a 1 Energy KO happen in 2 turns... Just night attack, switch to BT Gengar(after Rare Candy on Gastly if necessary), attach basic psychic energy to BT Gengar, KO delivered!
^ If BT Gengar can't KO, Mega Mewtwo can clean up w/ only 2 colorless(1 in DV) needed to attack. 1 DCE and a Muscle Band is enough to KO most non-Mega EXes w/ 3 energy already on the non-Mega target. It's like: "beat that, Jack!"(I don't mean to use that language personally, but given that deck possibility is a killer idea, not sure regarding other ways of wording...)

There are so many strong cards in this set.. it's simply crazy how fast the pace is going to be now in most tiered decks.
So we just need scans of the second Red Flash Mewtwo full art now?
EPIC cards! Cool Pokemons and attacks but some are unique attacks,plus 2 secret rares comfirmed in Break Through and these are Mewtwo-EX with their companions.
