Add Search the City and Hellkite Tyrant.

Play Search the City from your opening hand and exile the 5 cards then get out Magus of the Future, Sensei\'s Divining Top, and Etherium Sculptors and play some Artifacts from the top of your deck until you get all four Etherium Sculptors then play every artifact in your deck for free thus getting you all 5 cards that were exiled letting you sac it to get an extra turn. Do it right and that extra turn will knock you into the upkeep that will make you win with Hellkite Tyrant

This is a wincon of one of my decks.
The mana base is
Steam Vents X4
Sulphur Falls X4
Island X6
Mountain X6
Iron Myr X4
Silver Myr X4
Prophetic Prism X4

Interesting idea.... My only suggestion here would to use a block of each of the respective artifact lands.

Yeah but that would make it harder to get Sulphur Falls untapped when it enters the battlefield.

Maybe back it up with the Shivan Reef instead, then?

Considering you're out to win by untraditional means, the -edit- damage -/edit- would be a very small issue, and you wouldn't need to worry about the untap - it'd still let you set up for the faster win. :D

A different approach may be to use this in a Storm combo deck. With Ramp cards like Rites of Flame, Pyretic Ritual, and Manamorphose that you can draw up you can cast them all in addition to all of your other artifacts and use your Grapeshot and/or Guttersnipe and/or Archmage Ascension for the win. Remember that the combo of Magus of the Future+Etherium Sculptor+Sensei's Divining Top lets you draw your entire library :)

The approach with storm is not new: http://www.mtgcombos.com/view.php?fid=2&tid=52273

Top + Magus + CMC decrease is really good...
