It is, but if they didn't do it that way there would be a ton of game-breaking weirdness that could ensue. They actually had to change how cascade worked recently (like on Violent Outburst) because it was letting you cascade into Valki, God of Lies Flip and cast it as Tibalt, Cosmic Impostor for free on turn 2 or 3.

sergiodelrio SSG was banned super-recently, so there’s zero chance they’re unbanning its twin. Wotcs official statement on the SSG ban was
“ Simian Spirit Guide is a card we’ve had our eye on for some time as an enabler that speeds up fast combo decks.
To slow down that category of combo decks as a whole and give opponents more time to set up interactive plays in the early game, Simian Spirit Guide is banned.”
In general fast mana is an issue prior to turn 2. The big reason the card got banned to begin with was at a time when people could abuse it with Cascade to get out a turn 1-or-2 Tibalt, Cosmic Impostor. The rules for Cascade have since changed, but the risk fast mana in general poses remains, although admittedly Rite of Flame having a cmc of 1 makes it harder to abuse in some of the shells SSG thrived in.
Storm does still exist, but admittedly not with any meaningful percentage. I’m probably channelling my local meta a bit too much there - which has a few storm decks.

Ugh sorry, but finally: I think Tibalt, Cosmic Impostor can be cut for similar reasons as Gonti; at MV 7 I think a card should give you a great advantage within a turn at least, but Tibby is a typically gradual value 'Walker.
THAT'S IT, NO MORE NITPICKING FROM ME

Mtg_Mega_Nerds your idea helps me create a rogue deck. But it doesn't really solve my problem. The deck I found is a blue and black deck. Because of that I don't have the red mana to play Tibalt, Cosmic Impostor . I'm searching for a way to eddit the deck I found (because I would like to keep the mill properties) that allows me to play Tibalt, Cosmic Impostor and deffend him so that he's acutally useful. I don't want to simply add red mana, because I think that could destroy some of the synergie with other cards (after all cards like Soaring Thought-Thief and Thieves' Guild Enforcer can do nothing with red mana). That's why I asked if Replicating Ring could do the trick or if there are better options to solve my problem.

Yes, simply just put the back side within double brackets like: Tibalt, Cosmic Impostor

Narset, Enlightened Master lets you cast noncreature spells from among the exiled cards. As long as the spell your casting is a noncreature spell, such as Tibalt, Cosmic Impostor Flip, you are aloud to cast it, even it it's a creature card like Valki, God of Lies Flip. Similarly, if Bonecrusher Giant is exiled you can cast Bonecrusher Giant. This does require the noncreature spell to be cast normally, not with an alternate cost, so you can't cast Hypnotic Siren using bestow.

Some more decks that I’ve run into:
• Paradoxical Outcome with Yawgmoth's Bargain
• Tinker into Bolas's Citadel WITH ONLY Pact of Negation AS MAINDECK INTERACTION
• Bring to Light to cheat out Tibalt, Cosmic Impostor
• A Mystic Forge deck with Tezzeret the Seeker to go into Manifold Key + Time Vault
Here’s also some of the newer builds I have developed:
• Shiny Pebbles (UV BtL Storm)
• Strange Memes (UV Bargain Control)
