This card has seen some speculation in the spoiler thread.



Mirrodin Besieged {2}{U}
Enchantment
As Mirrodin Besieged enters the battlefield, choose Mirran or Phyrexian.
• Mirran — Whenever you cast an artifact spell, create a 1/1 colorless Myr artifact creature token.
• Phyrexian — At the beginning of your end step, draw a card, then discard a card. Then if there are fifteen or more artifact cards in your graveyard, target opponent loses the game.


There's Mesmeric Orb with Basalt Monolith (or Fatestitcher) builds.

There are builds with a bunch of lands and Treasure Hunt.

But there's also the option of running a sungrass eggs / KCI type engine.

A third possibility would be some kind of looting approach with baubles, Careful Study, Faithless Looting and such.

The Eggs/KCI angle seems the most viable to me, since it would allow either mode of the card to be a path to victory. That deck might be able to use Helm of Awakening to cycle through cards faster.

I originally misread the card. I thought that the looting was triggered like Riddlesmith so that it would run as a much faster enabler for the win condition.
