Omniscience with this and Mana Severance
Play your entire deck!
For overkill, keep a Laboratory Maniac in your deck and Lightning Greaves to seal the deal.

Play this with stuff like Gitaxian Probe, 0 drops, and cantrips. Then play all the 1 and 2 drop tutors you can find.

@ Cyleal and accsavious: Reread Omniscience. The top of your library is not your hand.

Unlike many bomb enchantments, this doesn't seem like a threat to your opponents (at first). If anything, they think it's a disadvantage that you're revealing everything you're drawing and going to draw. But then you see you're going to draw a land next turn. Then you play that land instead of the one in your hand. Then you see you've got a Pongify on the top. You end your turn. Your opponents quiver at your "disadvantage", knowing that attacking you will mean a new ape friend.

One of my favourite applications with this (which is usable in any EDH deck that uses Blue) is this + Sensei's Divining Top.

You play Top, Tap the top, drawing the card and placing Top on top of your library, then cast the Top. It's effectively a spell that says, "2 Draw a card", since this can also add to your Storm count. Regardless, this is very useful when all else fails.

One of my favorite blue cards ever printed, right up there with . This thing will consistently offer card advantage. Not to mention the awesome flavor text from a legendary wizard, who has an awesome story of his own if you read the stories
