Ran across this and though it was nice to see one not based around Mimic Vat.. I was looking to run the idea in vintage (area isn't super competitive) And dropped 1x Plains, and the 3x Ponder, 4x Glacial Fortress, and 3x Seachrome Coast and picked up 4x Tundra, 4x Nimbus Maze, & 3x Impulse. The deck has been running rather well.. I noticed that the mana curve in the original deck was good but my luck was having me draw the coasts later in the game and they were generally a wasted land drop. they were the first to go. I tried the Depths Painland first and it was ok. but switched it out for tundras once i grabbed my 4th. after that Nimbus Maze was a no brainer as it allows me to with a tundra in play get either color. The Impulse was simply put in to replace ponder. sure it isnt as good but does basically the same thing except I can see the 4th card and it protects me from life loss due to drawing cards.
