Just saw TheCaptain's Unthinkable Sins combo, and it reminded me of this deck idea that I was working on but never got around to building yet.

Get Mystic Speculation and Sins of the Past in your graveyard, you don't necessarily need to cast the Sins, just get it in there. Play Spellweaver Helix and target those two cards.

With Memory Crystal in play, you get free buyback for Mystic Speculation.

So every time you scry for one U mana, you get to play Sins of the Past for free.

From there, I was thinking Careful Study and Frantic Search would dump off the cards you need for your graveyard regularly and you can scry to set all that up. Using Glimpse the Unthinkable on myself scared me because of the threat of grave removal, so I shy'ed away from that.

Then spells like these would be feasible since the Sins of the Past plays them for free......

Oh yeah......this was what I was working on. Should have put this in the original post.

This....


Can also drop these under your Spellweaver Helix with your Mystic Speculation. Infinite scrying, and cast whatever you want......you'll get your lands untapped at the cost of one U mana. Keep count of your scrying (spell count) and you can follow up with this......


Just make sure your spell count is correct so you don't have to bounce your own stuff.

Mystic Speculation with Rude Awakening set on Spellweaver Helix seems like the pinnacle (no, not Helix Pinnacle!) for storm combos...while still allowing infinite mana on the side.

Might as well throw Helix Pinnacle in there. Pay x to your Pinnacle, pay U to scry and untap your lands. Repeat. For that matter, through your scrying you could build all 4 Pinnacles by the end of your turn if your opponent bothered to wait.....lol.
