I built this deck out in my head taking into consideration the 4 most important things in Magic.  

1) Mana, and I don't mean land.  Mana sources like Moxen, Lotus, and other artifacts.  To shut these down is to stop most type 1 decks.  I would run Nul Rod, but that would end up screwing me over in the end.

2) Land.  Land helps keep a deck running, and fetching for land helps speed a deck up.  Being able to take out your opponents land will stall them out.

3) Playing spells successfuly.  If I just stop my opponents from casting spells with Chant on a stick, they will just sit there and look stupid.  Besides, counter decks can't stop everything that comes through.  

4) Card advantage / hand disruption.  If I can draw into what I need before my opponent, that means I would win.  If I can disrupt what my opponent has in hand, or is going to draw, I can slow them down.

Wasteland, Strip Mine, and Crucible take out land.

Orim's Chant on a Stick takes out spells.  

Gorilla Shaman or Chalice take out mana souces.

Sensai's Top for card advantage.  

Tell me what you think.  Any potential problems you see.  Any cards you wouldn't reccomend using.  Basically I just wanted an excuse to use my 4X Impatience and built this deck idea around that.

My sideboard definately needs some re-working.  However I'm having trouble thinking of cards to put in it.  Any suggestions?

Sensei's Divining Top is better than Mirri's Guile.

Don't bother with the platinum/abunas/tooth and nail combo. Just stick to the impatience thing. Add some Swords to Plowshares for some creature control.

Well I gave some more thought to the deck, and found the card Abeyance from Weatherlight.  Then I saw that Eranyo guy who's being printed in the next set as well as Pithing Needle.  I might re-think this deck, but for right now it's staying like this.  I might just build an entirely different deck around Eranyo, Arcane Lab, Hesitation, Standstill, and possibly Impatience.  The only reason I'm using Impatience is because no one else does.  I, and most of my friends tend to use rares that no one else does.  Especially because it's casual play.  But I think if you can find a combo broken enough it's worth it to try it out in the Type 1 environment.

None of the permanents that counter spells can make impatience trigger. Even if the spell is countered they will not take 2 damage because they still put it on the stack.

Why not just run more removal and a fatter win condition, and try to get the scepter lock out faster?
