Yeah, this one of those cases where putting a die on top of your library comes in handy. For those that haven't seen this little "trick" it goes like this: You know there is something you have to do on your upkeep, pay an upkeep cost (like cumulative upkeep or echo), some other trigger that happens on your upkeep (like assemble the legion giving you tokens, vading/vanishing cards, or suspend cards), or some active thing you need to do (like futuresight's augurs, dissension's forecast, or casting a spell like magam jet to fix your draw), and to ensure you remember to do this before drawing a card (and thus passing on the opportunity to do something on your upkeep), you put a die (or any other small object) on your library to make you remember. If you use this trick a lot you can also start to put the die up there just to put the die up there, which is a fun mind game. I started doing this around the time of
coldsnap (I can't tell you how many cumulative upkeep cards I lost before a friend told me to do this), and it has served me well ever since.
