Serum Visionary
Body-stapled card selection has a long lineage in blue, and this one lands on a familiar rate: a 2/2 that replaces itself and then digs. The sequencing is the whole point. You draw first, so by the time you scry 2 you already know what you added to hand, which turns the top-of-library dig into an informed one: you bury or keep the next two against a plan you can see. That ordering separates it from a Sea Gate Oracle body, which fixes the draw by picking one of two revealed cards. This trades that selection down to a single unconditional draw but stacks two scry looks on top, so it smooths further into the deck at the cost of never showing you the alternative option. The 2/2 body is the tell that this is aimed at decks that want a creature alongside their card advantage rather than a pure spell-slot cantrip: it blocks, it crews, it counts for whatever cares about a creature entering. The package is tempo-neutral value: no board impact beyond a middling blocker, but a stocked hand and a library shaped to your curve. Wizards that resolve into card selection on a stick are quiet workhorses, and the informed-scry ordering is the small piece of engineering that keeps this one from being a worse Oracle rather than a differently-shaped one.
