Zur for tutor, based on the cycling mechanic.

There are a few ways to approach the deck. The goal is to get a critical mass of cycling cards which reduces the slots available for draw, removal etc...

Easy mode is Alhammarret's Archive with a payoff Drake Haven or Faith of the Devoted and enabler like New Perspectives or Fluctuator .

Astral slide can be used to blink creatures that return cards with cycling to our hand. There are a lot of sorcery cards so if we cycle and target Archaeomancer with Astral Slide we draw from the cycle and then get a card so we net one each time.
