Have been doing a little research on temporal fissure decks. Found that they all seem to run x1 Mnemonic Wall. Take this example from mtgdeckbuilder.net:

3   Azorius Chancery
4   Dimir Aqueduct
3   Evolving Wilds
6   Island
1   Plains
2   Swamp
3   Terramorphic Expanse

22   Lands

Creatures:


4   Nightscape Familiar
4   Cloud of Faeries
1   Mnemonic Wall
4   Mulldrifter
4   Sunscape Familiar

17   Creatures

Other Spells:


2   Deep Analysis
3   Foresee
4   Frantic Search
4   Snap
4   Temporal Fissure
4   Compulsive Research




My question is this: why only x1 wall? I dont see any way to bring it back if it goes to the graveyard, and it seems to be an important comopnent of this deck's long game. Can someone tell me what I am missing? Wouldn't cutting a land or Compulsive Research x1 to make room for more walls make sense?

It looks like Ghostly Flicker has replaced Frantic Search after it's banning, but still no second wall... what is the plan after the first gets fried?

This should either be in modern or casual, not sure. You only need to draw one to set off the infinite storm combo, I think. I really just skimmed the list.

It's not modern or casual, it's a pauper deck called "temporal storm".
I don't have an egosig because I'd rather my ideas be judged on their merits than on mine.
