If your deck is perfectly content to only operate during your turn, though, you can really break the symmetry on this and hamstring your opponents
That means youll have to find items which are more expensive than the coupons, which yes, there are plenty
Sometimes, the rules make it very difficult to do so (like Krosan Grip its Split Second ability ensures you can't cast Counterspell or similar spells, but triggered abilities like the ones found on Counterbalance or Kira, Great Glass-Spinner can, under certain circumstances, still counter them)
Even if Takenuma was a relatively bad mill spell, the fact you can play the first copy over a basic Swamp at almost no penalty to your manabase would get it into tons of lists
