I'm in the process of putting together a modern-legal UR shell (hello tax return, goodbye tax return, hello Snapcaster Mages) I can take in a few different directions and I had some success with Sphinx's Tutelage in a UB mill deck. Since this build is casual I can use the obvious synergy of Young Pyromancer and Skullclamp to trigger the Tutelage. By way of context, the meta is fairly janky casual games often with 3 or 4 players.
The manabase obviously needs work but that's what I've got at the moment. I'd like to try squeeze Fraying Sanity in but I've seen lots of arguments back and forth about how effective it is. Gitaxian Probe is something I've considered, maybe instead of Manamorphose ?
I haven't worked out a sideboard yet but I like how robust the shell is so maybe something to swap out the mill components and make it more like conventional UR Pyromancer build.
I don't really want to get into a pedantic argument here, but by "in the process of" I meant this is not meant to be the modern legal deck I was in the process of building, but instead a casual alternate take in the meantime.
Anyway, I see there's no feedback otherwise so I'll just leave it there.

It seems like a cool deck, I would include jace's Archivist as an easy combo engine. 1 mana to put 21 cards into a graveyard is pretty dang good.
