Here's the obligatory card-type-the-set-cares-about tutor. Paying 2 more and going to sorcery speed so your Mystical Tutor drops the card in your hand is a bummer, but there's not way they're reprinting it in Standard anyways. Playable only in Limited and maybe Commander.
So... It's a merchant scroll for more that fetches sorceries as well and isn't color-bound? That seems pretty darn balanced and will probably crack more than a few EDH (maybe even cEDH) lists. Considering that Idyllic Tutor was reprinted last year, I am really happy that this isn't being printed at rare and I'm glad that fabricate is apparently being used as the benchmark for acceptable tutors.
Sure, no Constructed player wants to pay that rate for that effect in a vacuum, but this set has magecraft and this enables that. I wouldn't rule out Constructed applications until more cards are revealed.
I suppose if you're evaluating this based on its ability to enable a T2 Tormod's Crypt into Tibalt's Trickery, yeah, look elsewhere.
This is a very good card. It's the Idyllic Tutor of Instants and Sorceries compared to Enlightened vs. Mystical. This is going to be a powerful EDH card that adds even more consistency to mono-blue.

Alternately, I'm sure Vintage players will (figuratively) sell an arm and a leg for this card. They got Merchant Scroll restricted there.
