The offcolor moxen speed up the deck considerably, but I don't think lacking Pearl and Jet will slow you down so much you're no longer competitive.  I highly recommend trying to pick up the Jet though.

Soupboy, the power is pretty essential to this deck, including the entirety of the Jewelry.  The biggest problem the deck faces against aggro (not that it has any real problems with aggro, but you still lose games sometimes), is that it's very mana hungry, and there are games where you're left without any acceleration, your Intuitions are just too slow, and you can't get the necessary recursion started before the Juggernaught finishes you off, or a lethal PoP smacks you in the head.  Additionally, other combo decks are faster than you as it is--you need to squeeze every advantage out of your deck that you can if you want to do well against them.  So while you can still play the deck without all 5 Moxen, I'd be lying if I didn't say that it will hurt you.  Just how much depends alot on your metagame, etc. (of course).

Could we borrow some tech from old TN and add a Glacial Chasm to buy time?  It should stall aggro for 3-4+ turns, barring land destruction.  Also might slow down combo, except Trix which uses "loss of life" instead of damage. Probably not an "optimal" build, but in a not fully powered version it might be enough.  Of course, I'm left with what to cut for it.  Thoughts?

I'll try to proxy it together tomorrow and give it a go.  Of course, I'm missing the jank for it-- anyone have some spare laces?
