Mox Diamond is only mana-fixing / mana accel in this list. It doesn't add mana sources - so you can effectively cut all Diamonds and not affect the manabase (since they don't actually count as lands). That gives you access to more gas in this deck. I had the same awkwardness in an As Foretold deck.
I suspect going all in on the Emrakul plan leaves you susceptible to certain kinds of disruption - IDK, Ensnaring Bridge, The Abyss, other things I can't think of. Venser, O Ring effects. I think it's a good idea to diversify your threat package, such as through Karn GC and more JTMS. I hate having one type of threat esp in a prison deck. If my opponent can efficiently answer that, then it's a real struggle to win a game.
Final Ritual: "I was your round 14 opponent with the 3 giant goyfs. I didn't know what the fuck you were piloting."
Drunken Master strategy. If I don't know what I'm doing, how would you?
While I'm not sure it's enough to push the deck into the limelight, Stonecoil Serpent is another nice X-drop to go with Trinket Mage. It's "only" 3/3 for 3 but you can easily upcast it for a lot and while it does die to an awful lot of removal (Bolt and Abrupt Decay/Assassin's Trophy are the only ones I can think of that don't kill it regularly), it's a nice big fat body to fetch up with the Mage. Of course, we're at the point where the Mages themselves are kinda anemic and what we'd really need is some great 0-1 or X-mana equipment for them to fetch but still, between Walking Ballista, Hangarback Walker and Stonecoil, the creature toolbox for Trinket Mage is getting quite decent.
I'm surprised no one's mentioned Oko in this thread.

Several modal double faced cards seem quite good in this deck
Glasspool Mimic
Jwari Disruption
Umara Wizard
All solid ways to improve the decks mana consistency without risking mana flood.

And both Chalice and Hullbreacher are solid against the upcoming delver dominanted Oko free meta. Excited to see if this deck can finally put up some results.
Hullbreacher is an amazing addition to the Narset Days Undoing Karn lists, and Mimic can copy it to make your opponent require multiple removal spells.
Nice cards. I would like to be able to choose between land and spell (Jwari Disruption is the card that i prefer) but i really hate that the land come in to play tapped.
Now i'm using this deck . Looter and sphinx help a lot as mana /hand fixer. Dismember and Brazen B. are there to gain time. Cloudkin Seer is a new add and i'm still not sure: a smaller mulldrifter that fit the mana curve.
Main:
4 Ancient Tomb
2 Brazen Borrower
4 Chalice of the Void
4 Chrome Mox
4 City of Traitors
2 Cloudkin Seer
2 Dismember
4 Force of Will
3 Looter il-Kor
2 Mist-Syndicate Naga
2 Sea Drake
1 Seat of the Synod
10 Snow-Covered Island
3 Sphinx of Foresight
3 Stratus Dancer
2 Sword of Fire and Ice
2 Trinket Mage
3 True-Name Nemesis
2 Umezawa's Jitte

1 Bojuka Bog
1 Misdirection
2 Mystical Dispute
1 Pithing Needle
2 Sorcerous Spyglass
2 Tormod's Crypt
2 Venser, Shaper Savant
I like this direction. Emry Stompy already does something like it, but Faerie Stompy can do it with Days instead of Echo, without taking the same artifact and GY hate.
Midgame Sea Drake can return spell lands to use as spells. Interesting.

Redundant copies of Day's Undoing are offset by outlets like Chrome Mox, FoW, Looter to pitch dead cards. Sphinx also helps fix the opening hand.
Karn can fetch equipment, instead of having multiple equipment main.
Spending 10 on Karn+Lattice is one of the most broken things to do with the HullDay mana. This deck can do it and protect with counters.
Multiple Choice seems like an autoinclude in this deck.

Maybe arcane denial could find a home here
arcane denial
or in a deck with Hullbreacher , Chalice of the Void and Chrome Mox
arcane denial on your own chrome mox could be a way to draw cards
arcane denial when Hullbreacher is on the board could be better that counterspell
arcane denial when chalice is set to one probably don't give any cards advantage to the opponent
and :
Cephalid coliseum
1x just for fun

I'm trying some of the new cards on a classic faerie stompy list.
Suspicius Stowaway : is a bit better of looter il-kor. (Could block ). The night and day stuff is awful but i will try to live with it.
otawara the soaring city : is quite good .
I'm still thinking on bridge lands like mistvault bridge (with engineered explosive in main) and aether channeler.
Wotc needs to print some powerful blue, white and green initiative creatures if they want to make Fairy/Merfolk Stompy, Curse/Rogue/Zombie Stompy and Beast/Dino Stompy into viable decks again.
Hi.After a few years' break I'm starting to play again. Does anyone have an updated list (possibly aggro or aggro control )? The side is what interests me most. I don't care that the deck isn't as competitive as it once was.
This is my deck now:
Deck: Sea Stompy
Main:
4 Sphinx of Foresight
2 Steamcore Scholar
3 Malcolm, Alluring Scoundrel
2 Trinket Mage
: Fix
3 True-Name Nemesis
3 Nimble Obstructionist
3 Sea Drake
main
1 Brazen Borrower
2 Floodpits Drowner
:Tempo
4 Force of Will
1 Sword of Fire and Ice
2 Umezawa's Jitte
2 Daze
4 Chalice of the Void
1 Sink into Stupor
1 Lórien Revealed
4 City of Traitors
1 Seat of the Synod
9 Snow-Covered Island
4 Ancient Tomb
4 Chrome Mox
Sideboard
3 Back to Basics
:land hate
1 Amphibian Downpour
2 Dismember
2 Faerie Macabre
1 Tormod's Crypt
hate
1 Brazen Borrower
2 Venser, Shaper Savant
:Tempo
1 Force of Negation
2 distruption flute
:counter
After a couple of small tournaments that ended badly I felt the need to add rebounders (brazen and sink) and removal / tempo cards (drowners). But I played too little to understand the meta. Any help is wellcome.
Thx
P.s
This is what i'm thinking to side.In my meta there are mainly eldrazzi , reanimator and Uwr control.
