I've tried Hunting Pack in my own combo and can't say I like it as a win condition. If it cost 5, maybe. But I've had a tough time pulling it off.
Enlightened Tutor is pretty strong. It gets you lotus 90% of the time, but sometimes yanks out Necro or Bargain. A little boing aint bad a la Hurkyl's, IMO - and it at times bounces the opposing Colossus. Fastbond can be pretty dang good (though I run 3 more land), and you should REALLY add Tainted Pact. Pretty much any Highlander deck of any sort needs Tainted Pact.
Funny, my friend Simon wanted to try out Power Artifact/Monolith, and I haven't given it a go yet. Perhaps I will now.
EDIT: Missed the Fastbond in your list since it was listed differently. But I am reminded of Regrowth. That card has won plenty of games for me.

Oh my god. It's Type 1 in ten years.
Steve, I don't know what to say. You've broken metagames that don't even exist yet.

Shame on you Steve - Tainted Pact belongs in every Highlander deck. Let's see if you can top eight with it at a regular tournament now.

Wish Steve had stuck around to play it in the Waterbury Highlander.
As for having broken the format,
Philatio did that months ago at Endicott with a very similar deck.

What was the point of putting the # of cards (always being 1 odviously) randomly on opposite sides throughout the post???
I like the deck however I would fit in tainted pact, and most likely burning wish (if that wasnt already included I would check but its 1 in morning and im tired)...
