Pod can never be unbanned bc it's wayyyy too strong but Twin I can see unbanned but not yet they want to see a twinless eldrazi less eta before that I'd assume

Just a thought that occurred to me:
Modern seems to be rotating at about the same speed as standard with these bannings.

Say you had twin, bannings forced you to change decks, Eldrazi seems broken, play that.
Come the new set, you'll be looking at the next broken deck.
Let's reprint {fastbond} in the next set ;)

Any thoughts (or hopes) that madness may be the next good deck?

Do you really think madness could be good? It seems to me like it might have issues as you need spells/effects to make you discard so you can cast the madness cards and that seems like you are having to use two cards to get one effect, wouldn't that lead to having to topdeck rather quickly?

Well there is a decent amount of draw / discard in some of the new cards (and probably in some of the cards to come).

It would take some extraordinary draw engine nonsense to sustain an entire madness deck

the point of madness this time around is to get a cool effect WHILE filling the grave for delirium, an entire deck of madness would be top decking by T4-5 with little to no effort...or hope
But see, I'm thinking grixis madness. Splash blue for cards like  {Artificer's Epiphany}.

I'm thinking more of stuff suck as {phyrexian arena} and {Liliana of the veil} as an engine
For madness with some life gain to counteract the arena

I predict Eye :) That or both, but I'm not sure Wotc will completely eliminate the deck.. Even given their history
