New Perspectives
Enchantment
When New Perspectives enters the battlefield, draw three cards.
As long as you have seven or more cards in hand, you may pay rather than pay cycling costs.

Cost Reduction Cards
4 months ago
I've noticed a few* omissions, namely effects that let you pay an alternate cost - which can be less than the regular cost (Zombie creaturess: Rooftop Storm) or reduced by other effects (Samurai: Kentaro, the Smiling Cat).
*Yeah, so I decided to do a proper search and it bloated into more than a "few"... Sorry for the wall of text, but here you go!
You've already got Fist of Suns and Jodah, but here are some less ubiquitous ones:
Echo: Thick-Skinned Goblin
Slowly Increasing 1/turn: As Foretold
Runes: Runeforge Champion
Fist of Suns and Jodah-like: Leyline of Mutation
Alchemy, Dragons: Sarkhan, Wanderer to Shiv
Pay life instead as Activated Ability: Marshland Bloodcaster
Alchemy, cards you don't own 1/turn: Grenzo, Crooked Jailer
From Exile 1/turn: Charred Foyer / Warped Space
Colorless 1/turn: Darksteel Monolith
Creature from exile 1/turn: Tlincalli Hunter
Conditional, Cycling: New Perspectives
Pay life instead 1/turn: Cramped Vents / Access Maze
Additionally, other regular omissions:
Flash: Cunning Nightbonder
Instants and Sorceries: Voracious Reader Flip
Creature spells: Krallenhorde Howler Flip, Honest Rutstein
One Giant: Invasion of the Giants
Target me! (auras, buffs, mutate): Spellwild Ouphe, Elderwood Scion
First Kicked: Vine Gecko
Historic: Ballad of the Black Flag
Not your turn: Geyser Drake
Aura and Equipment: Golden-Tail Trainer
Next Spell (honorable mention?): Hardened Berserker, Saheeli, the Gifted
Pay counters instead: Mutated Cultist
Dragons: Nogi, Draco-Zealot
Alchemy, Dinosaurs: Scalespeaker Shepherd (Not sure why is isn't linking, but I promise it exists)
Alchemy, from graveyard: Shellfish Scholar
Instants and Sorceries MV5+: Spectacle Mage
Prepared: Uvilda, Dean of Perfection Flip
Undaunted keyword: Durnan of the Yawning Portal
First instant/sorcery, conditional: Eluge, the Shoreless Sea, God-Eternal Kefnet

Cycling is a Lifestyle

You’re 100% right about the Cloud of Faeries! My mind was focused on reanimator too much I wasn’t thinking about how amazing the faeries would do in enabling deeper cycling digs. Thanks a ton for the suggestion!!!
Also I didn’t even know about the New Perspectives combo haha. Shows how much I look into combo these days. I used to do a lot of artifact combo when I first started edh but that’s since dropped off and haven’t really looked at any since I branched out into cycling. Glad I could offer something new for you to see.
Thanks for the upvote too I’m glad the deck caught your interest :)
Now to decide what to cut… lol

I was expecting a New Perspectives combo list, but pleasantly surprised. It can still storm off with paradigm shift, but the spread into reanimation and value gives the list some reach.
You could probably dip a little more into cycling lands if you used the basic landcycling cards, even though they aren't great, or cut lands with Street Wraith type stuff, but I can't say that is exactly better than whats here.
The only thing I'd look at dipping into is Cloud of Faeries as a combo option, or Gilded Light as a cheap 'not this turn' combo break.

Kenrith the cycled King

Thank you for the suggestions. New Perspectives seems like a really good fit and its luckily one of the cards that are also in the Timeless Wisdom deck. I mainly intend to use Biomancer's Familiar for Kenrith, the Returned King as his abilities, especially the revive one can be quite costly.

The deck seems cool, I do not understand however the role of Heartstone and Biomancer's Familiar, as there is little creature with ativated abilities that will get discounts from this, in fact, the only 3 creatures getting use for this are Embodiment of Spring, Vizkopa Guildmage, and Kenrith, the Returned King, as cycling abilities will not be discounted, as the creature cards in your hand are not yet creatures.
I see you heavily go into the cycling abilities, cards like New Perspectives and Irencrag Pyromancer would greatly help you, one to turbo trhough your deck, the other to control the board a little.

Not Another Landfall or Cycling Deck

Discovered an infinite combo by accident:
Drannith Stinger + Vedalken AEthermage + Wheel of Sun and Moon goes infinite if you have New Perspectives or Crystalline Resonance + Fluctuator .

New Perspectives seems like it would fit really well here and allow you to combo off easily. Getting three extra cards on top of it all seems outstanding.
Library of Leng really needs to make its way to the mainboard. This will allow you to do some pretty busted stuff.
Maybe Jeskai Ascendancy could come out, since you'll be cycling more than casting in your games anyways? I do see that it can be a combo piece, though.
Sacred Excavation also doesn't seem super strong for what it does.
Windfall is a great card, but won't your opponents benefit more from it than you if your hand is always full?
