No haste. It is good as it is.

Black Common Riddle is a good name. And also I like the effect. You need to put Flavour Text on some of these bad boys.

The first guy is very overpowered. Being an uncounterable tutor for instants or sorceries. And can even be a dude if you need it.

I somehow dislike that the sorcerycycling can be used at instant speed.

It's not uncounterable. My set cares a lot about abilities being activated to answer riddles and such, so there should be a few activated ability counters. I was sort of comparing to that tutor with flashback, but it might be a bit op...

No. You shouldn't do typecycling on type, just on subtype, e.g. mountaincycling.

Also, answer has no rules meaning. For an instant, an answer is a counter.

Do you ever say anything helpful? (A riddle is answered if a player cast a spell or activated an non-mana ability while it was on the stack) I'll start posting this again.

That is a supertype + a cardtype.

Mystical Teachings .

Teachings is the closest comparison to Itzáchi Something but the cards are quite different from each other, so it is hard to compare. I think that a tutor effect would have to cost at least 4 mana with this much utility, at that cost you can also make the body reasonable, maybe:

Itzáchi Something
Creature - Elemental
Haste
Sorcerycycling , activate this ability only anytime you could cast a sorcery.
Instantcycling
2/1

That bugs me because it's part of a cycle. Green has creature, blue has artifact, white has enchantment, and black has gravecycling. Grave could probably be pushed to 2BB, but the rest seem pretty on cost considering how powerful idyllc tutor and fabricate are. I suppose I can push them to 2CC and up the bodies too :/
