If you want to play Heartbeat of Spring, play Spring Harvest deck, because Heartbeat Desire is strictly worse deck than TEPS (Ritual Desire).

you might want to consider terramorphic expanse, as it fixes mana, but keeps your lands basic

Hi, I don't play much combo (except to scrub out with Sensei Sensei in the last trial), but you can create a huge loop with harvest decks, so there's no need to use Tendrils. If someone's going to shut down your win condition, it's better to make their only out Stifle, and not Lightning Helix, too. You can just use Brain Freeze and keep your mana simpler. I also disaggree that this is a strictly worse deck than Ritual-Desire. You would do well to run Remands, though. Muddles can also go in to tutor for that Brain Freeze. That will give you some resiliancy. I don't know the deck well enough to know what to cut, but I'd start with Fact. You can also cut out at least one Moment's Peace, because you can FoF or Gifts into it and win fast enough that you might not even need to see it. One Cunning Wish could also come out, I think.

I don't remember who wrote it, but someone on SSG recently posted a report with some positive results.

Search for tomorrow is interesting. Do you really need such a high land count with all the thinning? Sac Lands much?

Star Wars Kid's (Chris McDaniel) from PT LA is imo the best 'beat desire list. its so resilient to control and aggro and even a/c in the right hands. He shudve beaten moreno but he kinda got screwed on the rulings of moreno's misplays
