I'm not sure how much it matters, but you can cast Overmaster and Show and Tell off of it. But I think it's likely still not good enough at 4 mana.

Man, I really dislike that sort of line of reasoning. Like, we could say that Gilded Lotus kind of costs 2. But that is really nonsense. In fact, that is the whole reason why Grim Monolith is worth the amount of money that it is and sees the play that it does, where you'd never see anyone trying to cast a Gilded Lotus in Legacy.
It really bothers me when people try to talk about 5-mana Teferi like that. It's just not the way an evaluation of CMC really works in a cogent manner.

They tried really hard to make "self-combo" impossible since it only hits sorceries.
To hit two sorceries in 6 cards, you'd need more than 20 in the deck... so you're looking at around 24-28 sorceries total. I'm sure you can find 6 useful sorceries with cmc<=3. I'm less sure that you can find 4 mana without getting countered.
morgan_coke, I am sure you love that upgrade to Astral Slide!
Astral Drift 2W
Enchantment
Whenever you cycle Astral Drift or cycle another card while Astral Drift is on the battlefield, you may exile target creature. If you do, return that creature to the battlefield under its owner's control at the beginning of the next end step.
Cycling 2W
Brainstorm could be used to set something up for Collected Conjuring. At one point there should be a critical mass of cards to cast the zero mana Suspend cards reliably.
As for Urza, what kind of title is "Lord High Artificer"? It sounds weird as hell.
Spore Frog got reprinted.
A more expensive Preordain with Flashback. Probably too expensive for normal cantrip decks, but maybe something for decks that run Chalice?
A fixed Mom has been printed:
She doesn't die to Dread of Night and its hateful cousins, and helps against Eldrazi, while Mom is like the first card to cut in that specific MU.
She doesn't target herself, doesn't benefit from Cavern on Humans but benefits on Kor.
Did I miss something ?
Oh yes, the art is beautiful, I mean it's Seb.
God fucking fucking fucking fucking dammit, a viable Mom one-off in Modern and me without a card pool to build anything worth a damn. I just need Modern printings of Ancient Tomb and Exalted Angel to relive my favorite Legacy times in Modern. Turn 1 Mom, turn 2 upside-down card, turn 3 Top 8
Lord High Artificer of Yotia [think Yotian Soldier]. Urza gets to work on Thran stuff, Mishra works on Phyrexian stuff.
Before the brothers go their separate ways, there was a competition to be Lord High Artificer [Urza won] and gets, among other things, the Thran Tome upon which Dominaria Karn's +1 is modeled. Thran Tome has the info to build the Weatherlight/Legacy Weapon, and good magic lore ends with Freylise sets off the Pernicious Deed.
