{Bloodgift demon}
{Isperia, supreme judge}
{Niv Mizzet, the firemind}
If I purely look at draw power, I'd say Niv has the most potential. Combine with untap effects for multiple cards. Demon only gives 1 card each upkeep, Isperia is dependent on opponent, unless you crack {bident of thassa}  at them. That combo would net you the most cards if you can deal with their attack.

Attach a {Curiosity} to Niv Mizzet for game.

Ok... That nets you cards equal to your opponents life. Nice

All of these are pretty much unplayable on modern

Five colour Superfriends in modern? {Ajani, Mentor of Heroes} could help. Otherwise {Howling Mine}/{Dictate of Kruphix} if you just want to go faster. I can't think of anything else ATM.

^{Ophidian Eye} can also work if you decide to cross the realm into edh

Nice. Insta-Aura too

Wingnut

 {Arcanis the Omnipotent} Has my vote.

Skullguy725

Wait, which Niv are we talking about here?

{Niv-Mizzet, the firemind}
{Niv-Mizzet, dracogenius}

Or you could just not run that creature and run a PW that draws cards

Yeah, I kind of see the Demon and Isperia as commander-type  cards, and Niv is only good if your going to create a theme around him

I'd rather be using {Phyrexian Arena}.

If you're going to stick with a creature the previously mentioned {Arcanist, the Omnipotent} is best. He saves himself and {Jace's Ingenuity} each turn. Win win.
