This is Gush on a 3 cmc 2/2 body, wasn't it playable anytime during it's block?

It saw play in pickle decks, it has good synergy with vesuvan shapeshifter.

I'd prefer to Skirk Alarmist this, but late-game bouncing two islands probably won't kill you. It's worth hard-casting for a defensive wall early on, too.

Time Spiral standard was way too fast for this card, but its still amazing.

I like the fact BelloAbril and Gako have both made comments to indicate this card was never playable during the block, oh how wrong were you, the pickles lock-down deck was actually a top8er way back when and your indication of it never being useful was far from right.
I'm sorry to say that there, but yes it was incredible and as far as morph goes, this is definitely one of the better ones, obviously there could have been more support, but for all it's worth, it is fantastic!

Time Spiral was actually a very control-ish metagame. You have Pickles (which featured Fathom Seer), Teferi + Mystical Teachings control, Urzatron-based control (usually blue-red, which played Urza's Factory as its only win condition), and later Korlash + Urborg + Tendrils of Corruption control (which was also blue-black). Then Haakon + Nameless Inversion saw play for some time (and also discard decks featuring The Rack and Tarmogoyf) before Bitterblossom and five-colored control totally took over.
The other major deck during Time Spiral was Dragonstorm combo, which could be fast sometimes but could fail against disruption. Remember how they played a drawn out game with an almost uncounterable Gigadrowse against control so the control player can't react? Aggro decks did exist, with Rakdos (Greater Gargadon + Dark Confidant) and Gruul, but the control cards were stronger in general at that time.
