I brewed up this strange tempo list last week and tested it against a good portion of the current legacy meta, and to my surprise it worked out quite well! I thought I would post the list and see what others thought. Be warned! It's a strange brew even Eric Clapton would squint at!
4 Scalding Tarn
4 Flooded Strand
3 Tundra
3 Volcanic Island
4 Wasteland
4 Delver of Secrets
3 Phyrexian Dreadnought
3 Mother of Runes
2 Grim Lavamancer
4 Lightning Bolt
3 Swords to Plowshares
3 Force of Will
4 Brainstorm
3 Ponder
4 Stifle
4 Daze
3 Spell Pierce
1 Spell Snare
1 Vision Charm
Mother is basically just there to help protect Dreadnought since he closes out games so quickly but is easy to kill. She also blocks Goyfs and germs all day long. Vision charm is sweet on Dreadnaughts, but it feeds Lavamancer too. 3 Dreadnaughts feel right so that we can play the stifles early like RUG does in the tempo gameplan, but as they become bad, they get great value on the Dreadnaughts trigger. Pretty much just a tempo deck that can just win on turn 4. What are everyone's thoughts? Too wierd?
