I was just wondering if this could be a possible deck for the current meta? Obv. blue would be a auto loss. Does anyone have a list laying around?

A more useful comment is that the combo is more easily distrupted than TEPS so why not play TEPS instead?

Pithing needle comes to mind in stopping Char Belcher.

The Mana engine itself is good though and I have used it in my own TEPS build when I didnt have the sac lands. The storm count/colourless mana you can get is crazy.

Actually, all this list loses is burning wish, which can be replaced. Depending how the meta changes, this may be a possibility next year, but I'm betting more on BDW + maindeck Kataki.

I actually went to the Starcity Games 1k and played Belcher for fun. Its bad, but not as bad as I thought it was going to be. I ended up 3-3 drop. The best part about the deck is that nobody has any clue whatsoever what you're playing until you blast them. Then game 2-3 they know how to disrupt your plan, and you take intense sideboard splash damage from every good sideboard card in the format.
