What Lock Spells are Not Replaced in the Expansion?

[Supp]

I'm asking because Im thinking about moving my lock from qeynos to fp. I have not scribed any T8 spells yet, so it should be a safe move. Perhaps there is a bloodlines spell that isnt being replaced, but what about anything else?

The only spell not being upgraded is Null Caress

Didn't they say somewhere that with this expansion all spells would be replaced by a new one?I thought I picked that up somewhere.
