Most anti-combo cards are in the sideboard in most decks (barring stax) so why would you want to have a form of the dragon in maindeck if it is only usefull in a small number off matchups...In the situations where your life total is to low for bargain than you can fetch future sight, wich will most off the time win the same/next turn...

Dragon really not needed in main deck, but I'll keep one of them in SB.

I think the enchantments maindeck need looking at. Bargain is obviously your main target. Past that I don't think you need anything more than Necropotence in the maindeck.

Ehm.. if drew 5-10 cards at eot, how could I play a lethal Tendrils (with only 1 Draw7 + 6 blue cantrips)??

The last card I want to mention is Balance

It's an intresting thing, and it's an another way to sacrifice Rector.

I used the Form mostly against Long Death // TPS. Play Arcane Laboratoty, then opponent Tinker for a Darksteel Colossus, then drop a Form of the Dragon definetily gg.

What do you think: 4 Claws of Gix enough against Oath or a +1 Humility in side still better??

So I usually build decks, those use only Five-proxy. Lot of Vintage players haven't owned the full P9, and the better way to play with a non-powered deck to run on Tournaments, where you can proxy cards (5 or 10).
The Five-proxyed should be fast as the full-powered version. I tested it alone, and the result: go off with Strom 30+ Tendrils mostly in Turn 2, in other times in Turn 3-4. The deck list:

Building on Five-proxy - Rector-Tendrils, by GhostHunter

// The Combo:
        4 Academy Rector
        2 Tendrils of Agony
        1 Yawgmoth's Bargain
// The Draw Engine:
        4 Brainstorm
        1 Ancestral Recall
        1 Windfall
        1 Timetwister
// The Miscellanous:

        2 Duress
        4 Cabal Therapy
        1 Yawgmoth's Will
        1 Vampiric Tutor
        1 Demonic Tutor
        1 Tainted Pact
        2 Chromatic Sphere
        1 Hurkyl's Recall
        1 Chain of Vapor
// The Artifact Acceleration:
        1 Lotus Petal
        1 Mana Vault
        1 Sol Ring
        1 Mana Crypt
        1 Chrome Mox
        1 Mox Diamond
        4 Dark Ritual
        2 Cabal Ritual
        1 Mox Jet
        1 Mox Sapphire
        1 Black Lotus
// Lands:
        2 Flooded Strand
        2 Polluted Delta
        1 Tundra
        1 Scrubland
        1 Underground Sea
        1 Tolarian Academy
        4 Gemstone Mine
        2 Forbidden Orchard

// Sideboard:
        4 Claws of Gix
        1 Form of the Dragon
        1 Hurkyl's Recall
        3 Ground Seal
        3 Arcane Laboratory

If an opponent drop a card, that hurt Tendrils-built decks, you could had an alternative winning conditions: in this deck that condition are: Form of the Dragon, which good against a lot of deck, like: Workshop Aggro, Stax, Slaver Control, Food Chain Goblins, etc.., but you should kill them with it fast, because if he can use twice Triskellion or drop a Pentavus, you will lose the game.

Questions, opinions??
