Yeah, being able to interact with other spells on the stack is more powerful and changes the game way more than just interacting with creatures or with combat damage. The high-power games that are associated with bracket 4 and 5 will more often end in a combo turn than be decided by regular combat damage, and the blue and the red ones can way better interact with, and protect from, those wincons than the white, blue and black ones do.
The fact that you can cast spells without paying mana is quite powerful in itself, but not enough to qualify as a game changer, or Ornithopter and Memnite would be one too. Force of Will is part of a cycle, but not many people will argue that Bounty of the Hunt is on equal footing with a free counterspell.

I was thinking on the Commander some more, and personally, because he can deal Commander damage to everyone I would consider playing a bunch of free creatures on top of the life gain stuff you are already playing. Free creatures equal free sacs. You can ignore me. It was just a thought. **Zero Cost Creatures **

This looks so interesting!!! I love all of the cheap artifact creatures so I was surprised not to see Ornithopter on here! I know you have Thopter Assembly but you've got a 99 card deck and permagoaded creatures if you have your commander out, odds are they won't conflict with each other. Also, TA needs to survive all the way to your next upkeep, which is a really long time. I see that you have some ways of giving your spells flash, but it's still a really tough effect to actually pull off. I'm not saying to remove it! Just advocating for my boy Ornithopter!!!!!

I see the High Market and I see the Ornithopter... Is Lazotep Quarry worth a spot?

I test-played a bit and I think I got the lands to work well!Hallowed Fountain
seems to be a good land fix and much to my despair I think I have to remove The Ozolith to add one land in its place because the lands just were not consistent enough. (especially trying to get for a Counterspell, Sink into Stupor
Flip, or if I wanted to cast two cost cards. (this is part of the reason why I chose Metallic Rebuke over Counterspell before I updated my deck because getting double blue seemed tougher. but I think seventeen lands plus the Mox Opal and Springleaf Drum are good and the manapool seems much more efficient. I decided to keep the Darksteel Citadel because for artifacts entering and on the board for affinity I seemed to notice a considerable difference if they were not artifact lands.
the Steel Overseer seems to be pretty strong especially if I have a bunch of Ornithopter or Memnite then I can buff them and make them more of a threat.
I also had the crazy idea of adding another copy of Shadowspear because of the +1+1, trample, and especially the lifelink if the game is longer and I needed it. however, I am not quite sold on the idea.
I would love to have one copy of The Ozolith, but I am unsure what to remove. I am considering removing one of the three Kapa Cannoneers Or one of the two Emry, Lurker of the Loch. but I am just not confident about removing those cards that seem essential for this deck. ); would love to hear from you and thanks so much for helping kamarupa! without you, I got no clue what I would have done!

Tokens do not have a mana cost unless the effect creating them assigns a mana cost (such as by making it a copy of an object with a mana cost). Any object without a mana cost (including lands and cards like Asmoranomardicadaistinaculdacar) has a mana value of 0. You'll notice Culling Ritual doesn't say anything about the mana cost of permanents, rather the mana value. A mana cost of is different from not having a mana cost, but both give a mana value of 0. Just like a mana cost of is different from a mana cost of , but both would give a mana value of 1. This is also why Culling Ritual specifies nonland, because otherwise it would destroy lands despite not having a mana cost, because the mana value is 0.
202.3a The mana value of an object with no mana cost is 0, unless that object is the back face of a transforming double-faced permanent or is a melded permanent.
Regarding nothing not being a mana cost, that is correct. Memnite shares a mana cost with Ornithopter, but Dryad Arbor does not share a mana cost with Asmoranomardicadaistinaculdacar since neither of them have one. I think the only cards that care about this difference are Killer Cosplay and Richard Garfield, Ph.D., neither of which are black boarder legal.
