I'm confused. Did all the heavy armor sets that contain boosts to magicka-based characters become deleted or uncraftable when the patch dropped?

Ravager should definitely be medium armor. Veiled Heritance also. Armor of Truth also. Currently, medium has 2 item sets that proc weapon damage: Briarheart and Senche/Air.
Seventh and Fury... They do require you to take damage in order to proc and medium is all about avoiding that, so they should stay Heavy, but they definitely need a nerf in the amount of Weapon Damage they give.
They shall be nerfed on the day when nerfing a set makes a cryhard a better player. When nerfing a viable build makes a rpbuild viable. and when nerfing the "meta" makes a newb superior to an experienced player.
Hopefully that nerf will still be "battlespirit only".

Show me one magicka heavy armor set that gives over 600 spell damage (not counting clever alchemist as it's crafted).
Seventh, ravager and fury need nerfs, period.

Do they also come with:
Reduces the Magicka cost of spells by 10%
Increases Magicka Recovery by 20%
Increases your Spell Resistance by [x] for each piece of Light ArmorHeavy armor equipped.
Increases your Spell Critical rating by 2191.
Increases your Spell Penetration by 4884.
??? Because that's everything you lose by not wearing 5 light.

@Mayrael
While it's always good to keep an eye on different sets and adjust when needed, the balancing factors for these is that they significantly hurt your mobility compared to medium armor options, you need to get hit/deal damage on a low proc continually to get the benefit of the set, and it's much harder to sustain while wearing them. Swift just got the nerf so mobility will be down dramatically making that an actual tradeoff. Sustain is an issue with these sets period. You can run rings around these people in a magicka build and do some range kiting to come out victorious.

More of a testament on how mediocre heavy armor passives are compared to light. But nevermind the loss of passives that medium would give.
