Should I Put High Fae Trickster Into These Decks?

Commander Deck Help forum

High Fae Trickster is an amazing card, and I have put into the majority of my decks that contain the color blue, but I am wondering if I should put it into my Atraxa, Praetors' Voice and Progenitus EDH decks, since those decks are a four- and five-colored deck, so I am not certain if I should replace the colorless Vedalken Orrery with a colored card, since it is very important that I be able to afford to cast any spell in those decks.

What does everyone else say, about this? Should I put High Fae Trickster into those two decks?

You probably don't need it. Do your 4/5 color decks have recursion or repeatable recursion?

What makes fae good is that it has flashback itself and recursion potential as a creature. What makes it worse than the leyline or orrey is that creatures are the easiest thing to remove.

Does instant speed dramatically change your gameplay? Do you have ETBs that could be game changing if they had flash? Do you run a lot of interaction/counters that flash would help with? If not,I wouldn't bother.

RiotRunner789, both of those deck contain cards that synergize with non-creature spells (specifically, Whirlwind of Thought and Flux Channeler), so, if I were to put the fae into those decks, would each deck still contain a sufficient number of non-creature spells for those cards to be effective?
