carpecanum you have now tempted my mind with Mystic Speculation XD. The remainder of the deck should be in within the next few days, after some playtesting I will definitely add some commentary as to how it performs. Do you all think the land balance is okay?

That's why I asked with Curiosity.

If you want more shenanagins ... Meishin, the Mind Cage neuters a lot of decks but your commander can still ping for one point at a time. Neko-Te is nicer than giving your boss Deathtouch but not by much. Same with Sigil of Sleep.

Mystic Speculation is a cheap spell you can cast over and over.

No, I'm good.

Every card suggested was under $20. If Isochron Scepter was too "good" what about the cheap blue transmute tutors in a deck that is CMC 2 or less?

Mystic Speculation has serious synergy with Talrand.

Teferi's Response is the biggest cantrip in the EDH library.

Teferi's Response ultimate cantrip.

Forbid and/or Mystic Speculation quality effects, recyclable, token generation.

Inundate game ender.

Walk the Aeons tech.

Mystic Speculation maybe? Replace that Pteramander. Scry 3 and draw a card is nice.

Cool voltron concept.

Riptide Laboratory to properly abuse that Snapcaster Mage.

Capsize would be a great spell in this draw/go strategy. Dust Bowl for similar reasons.

Mystic Speculation fits the top deck Counterbalance strategy.

Urza's Saga to grab that crucial Sensei's Divining Top, Relic of Progenitus removal and two powerful mana rocks.

Sentinel's Eyes cheap and reusable vigilance.

Narset, Parter of Veils round out the playset of powerful planeswalkers.

Pendrell Mists would be a useful stax tax.

Third list I've seen for this commander on the site... Where. Is. The. Mystic Speculation!?

Great schtuff, love the Miracle fishing! Looks like you are missing a card for your 99. I would recommend Mystic Speculation for more Elminster Synergy.
