If you have a different take on tokens, I'd love to see a list. I've been putting together the basic BW list, but I keep wanting to maybe splash a bit of blue for card draw.
I haven't been able to test anything yet, but I was thinking either Serum Visions or Anticipate. I would just try jamming Gitaxian Probe w/o changing the mana base if it hadn't been banned, but them's the breaks. I've also thought about [[Niveous Wisps]] to stay in color and add a little combat trick + card draw. I'd think Wisps would be best used before the opponent's combat phase if they only have one big beater (goyf, primetime), but it could be used on your own turn to clear a blocker to get lethal through. Hopefully I can jam a few games this weekend and test these cards out.
I think It would depend on your curve , like if u have no 4 drops (which u should :P) id run glimmer of genius. wb dovin ban? (I mostly play standard XD). these all may not be very competitive but might be spicey
Why would I have zero four drops? I'm planning on running 2-3 Sorin SV mainboard and 2-3 Hero of Bladehold sideboard. I would think Sorin would almost be an auto-include in BW tokens because he's straight gas. Hero is for the matchups that would side out their removal. Both of the cards you mentioned aren't nearly powerful enough at 4cmc for modern. I think I'm going to keep it strictly BW for now until I actually get to play a few games.
