Corporate Favor 1WW
Enchantment - Aura
Enchant creature
Enchanted creature gets +2/+2 and has "At the beginning of each combat, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature."
2WW: Search your library for a card named Corporate Favor, reveal it, then attach it to target creature with the highest power you control not enchanted by an Aura named Corporate Favor. Shuffle your library afterwards. Activate this ability only during your postcombat main phase.

Affluent Kingpin 3BB
Creature - Orc Advisor
2BB: Support 1.
At the beginning of your end step, if another player controls a creature with a +1/+1 counter on it, you may pay 4(u/b)(u/b) and tap Affluent Kingpin. If you do, gain control of it.
"Some of them never questioned their blessings until I revealed myself. Some were smarter, and began following the money trail. Some went to me in the first place directly. Do you know what they all have in common? Each and every single one of them work for me now."

(silver border)

Bearly Audible BG
Sorcery (U)
Look at the top eight cards of your library. You may put a creature card with power 2 or less onto the battlefield from among them onto the battlefield, then put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order. Then if you made no audible noise with your cards while doing this, it fights up to one target creature you don't control.

Espy the Timelines 2WU
Instant (U)
Scry 2, then draw two cards. You gain 2 life.
EXAFORETELL 4WU (You may cast this card from your library for its EXAFORETELL cost. If you do, shuffle it into your library as it resolves. You get an emblem with "Reveal each card you draw as you draw it. When a card named Espy the Timelines is revealed this way, exile that card and sacrifice this emblem.")

EDIT: This wouldn't be in the reminder text, but if you start to cast an EXAFORETELL card and realize that you can't/don't want to, you lose the game, because otherwise you'd be able to start casting, rewind, and use it as a free way to shuffle your library. If you Mindslaver someone else and try this, you lose the game as the player in control, not them.

gigaforetell is for those who are dissatisfied with the weak conviction of lesser prophecies. when something is prophecied, it is supposed to happen.

Now I'm just imagining gigaforetelling a card and getting caught with your pants down when your opponent casts Final Fortune and just immediately skips to the end of the next turn without doing anything.

Every time you cast a gigaforetold card, it strengthens the power of future gigaforetold prophecies.

Sorcery (U)
Scry 3, then reveal the top card of your library. If it's a nonland permanent card, create a token that's a copy of it except its an enchantment in addition to its other types. Then put that card into your hand.
Gigaforetell 4GW (During your turn, you may pay and exile this card from your hand face down. Cast it on a later turn for its gigaforetell cost. When you do, copy it for each other foretold, megaforetold, or gigaforetold spell you have cast this game.)
