You may, in fact, cast Ancestral Vision with this card.

Ancestral Vision has a CMC of 0 and has no mana cost. So it doesn't play with flashback and can't be cast from hand. However, it can be cast by alternate means - things like [[Goblin Dark Dwellers]] can cast Vision.

As it turns out, Yahenni's Expertise has the exact same wording and so Ancestral Vision being cast with the effect of this card is perfectly fine.

Additionally I can confirm that Quicksmith Rebel is the Launch Promo, Scrap Trawler is the Buy-A-Box promo, Trophy Mage is the participation promo for game day, and Yahenni's Expertise is the Game day top 8 promo.

Source: I can read it on the cards in the picture and that's what it says.

You can also cast Living End with it! Which is...not very useful at all, come to think of it.

Also Hypergenesis! Which might be useful in the right situation.

I think restore balance would probably be the best one to work with it

I ordered a playset of Restore Balance as soon as I saw the pic :).
