For anyone unfamiliar: You have {Ghostly Flicker} exile the {Archaeomancer} and {Gilded Lotus}, {Archaeomancer} EtB effect brings the {Ghostly Flicker} back to your hand, {Gilded Lotus} comes back untapped and lets you cast it again for free.

Or infinite damage with the Guttersnipe.  Having tested it, I either have the shittiest luck on the draws, or it needs some serious fixing.  7 games against different decks, and i never saw my ghostly flicker.  Everything else, but that.  Are there any standard "search for creature" or "search for "instant" spells?  Its frustrating.

{Diabolic Revelation} and
{Increasing Ambition}

I actually just got a foresight yesterday.  Tad expensive mana cost, but might just be the answer.
