Well this is a pretty janky deck, placed like 6th out of 25 at my local tourny. Well check it out.

3x power artifact
1x mana vault
1x grim monolith
1x stroke of genius
1x braingeyser
1x kraeveans torch (lol i spelt that wrong)
4x force of will
1x misdirecion
3x swords to plowshares
1x demonic tutor
1x vampiric tutor
1x enlightened tutor
1x memory jar
1x recall
2x morphling
1x masticore
1x voltaic key
1x mind twist
1x lotus petal
4x impulse
1x tinker
1x mox diamond
1x balance
1x yawgomoths will
1x tolerian academy
1x strip mine
1x plateau ( my 1 dual :)
4x city of brass
4x adakar watses
4x salt marsh
4x quicksand
2x swamp
3x island
1x plains

Well obviously I dont have lotuses and moxes and the land is really bad because of the lack of duals. The combo works ok and infinite mana is always fun. Try to fix it up the best you guys can... thanks.

I noticed one thing as soon as I saw the list - there are too many cards that there are only one of. If there's 60 cards in your deck, that's only a 1 in 60 chance of drawing that card. Lose some of the singles.

fuzzy: the reason those cards are singles is because they are restricted :)

It IS rather shaky without duals and Moxen. I'm really wary of having a 3-card combo where one card is restricted and the other two each have only three copies.

It has surprise value, but a good control player may know just how to break this up, shaky as it already seems to be.

The Morphlings are a good backup plan, but might Fact or Fiction help your topdecks?

By the way, you do know that Power Artifact doesn't work with Mana Vault, right?

It does just only on the upkeep so I would have to wait to the next turn to untap make a million mana and stroke them for a million on my upkeep. It dosent work as well but still does.

I'm not sure how you're using Power Artifact with Mana Vault but it doesn't reduce the cost to untap by 2. The four colorless mana is NOT an activation cost, so Power Artifact doesn't affect that aspect of it. The only activation cost on Mana Vault is the <tap> needed to get the four mana.
