I am looking for lots of good "scy-" and draw- type cards to add to my Talrand EDH deck.

So what are your favorite Brainstorm - and Ponder - type of cards?

Mystic Speculation is pretty good, especially with Arcane Melee , also, slightly different, but Thassa, God of the Sea is pretty good card advantage.

Thirst for Knowledge can have a similar effect as well.

Brainstorm , obviously.

Mystic Speculation , Telling Time and Sleight of Hand are good, maybe Flash of Insight works for you too.

Of course there are Augury Owl and Sage Owl , which go well with Voyage's End .

Totally forgot about Foresee .

Oh, and of course Shared Discovery , Tidings , Concentrate and Counsel of the Soratami . Why just scry two or three when you can simply draw them all?

Mental Discipline is decent if you're playing a Draw Go style deck.

Touche. Not familiar with that one. Bought a booster of Urza's Saga and found Mental Discipline . Not too many cards in the strictly better category...lol
