I recently rediscovered this little gem when I was looking for a good replacement to the useless Squee's Revenge in my coin flip deck, as I figured it would also be good with the Syncopate's I was packing.
Man, what a house. I played with it the other night, and while it only drew me 3 cards (still not bad for a common) it gave my teammate and I a wonderful tempo advantage. I was thinking how nicely it would be to back it up with Rhystic Deflection, or should I say Divert.
They cast a targeting spell, I see if they pay 1 (they probably do) and it makes my little Divert 1 mana stronger. It doesn't sound like much, but its an unanticipated play that I bet would work. Plus once they see me cast Divert once, they now plan on holding back an extra 3 lands instead of 1 anytime I've got 1 measly blue open - tempo heaven.
I was trying to think of other non-rhystic spells that would work nicely with this card:
Sphere of Resistance
Rishadan Port
Winter Orb
Any others?
