Here is the deal ... There is a Type 1 tournament coming up where a bounty is offered for anyone who can top four with a Highlander deck. . .
Now I wanted FoW and Drain and maybe even Undermine but it is hard to justify their inclusion. Instaed i opted for a few lock components and ways to get fat on the table quickly. I also opted to not use any basic lands ... I will gladly take suggestions on the mana base. As can been seen I'm trying to fill up my graveyard and then weld or animate some quick fat into play with Tinker/Colossus my alternative. Now i do not expect to win the Mox with this but how camn I make it as competitive as possible?

IF you're going Highlander, consider Tainted Pact.

Crop Rotation. Get that Bazaar/Acadamy/Maze going ASAP Very Happy. Also, while Timetwister is most certainly broken, is wiping out your graveyard all that useful for you? Other things I might suggest would be a few more Tutors, perhaps Intuition and Mystical.

Mystical is there. But Tainted Pact is very good along with Intuition ... Timetwister will go. Not sure about card number two ... the deck is actually quite tight.  I already dropped a few cards .. Gifts Unforgiven and Mind Twist. I would love to find room for Gifts in particular but their is not a lot of space. Duress would probably be the card I removed as it will not see play often. Crop Rotation is green and hard to play with this mana base. Maze is an extra Balance/StP/Vindicate really. Just a bit of Oath tech which is bound to played.

Did you see this?  If you did, you may want to include some sort of reasoning as to why he should have cut something else in favor of gift.  

@the deck I have a few questions:

1)How about Entomb?  You have reanimation spells and Welder (though he only be one  Rolling Eyes ).
2)Is Undiscovered Paradise actually worth the uber drawback, or should you be playing with another 5 Color Land like Orchard or such?
3)Does the 1 extra mana for 1 extra card make Gifts superior to Intuition, or did you find Gifts simply to clunky to cast?
4)Seeing as you are just playing Singelton anyway, why not play some version of Storm Combo?

Okay, that last one was a joke...
