TheoryCrafter I can see a Bracket 6 that basically acts as the banlist/anything goes area, but some of the stuff on the banlist makes Dockside Extortionist and Jeweled Lotus look like Strike it Rich and Chromatic Star. Even in the rarefied airs of Bracket 5, what would happen?
Usual disclaimer that I don't cEDH at all, but something like Oloro + Lotus + Lurrus (even in the 99--tutors ahoy!), or Temur Tolarian Moxen 'n' Treasures into copy-spammed Tinker and Upheaval with a side of Fastbond, sounds eye-rendingly miserable to my Bracket-3-or-less-dwelling carcass.

Hey SufferFromEDHD, thanks for the input.
Heartwarming Redemption is a good card but I think I would go for Valakut Awakening Flip if I wanted that effect. Same thing except for the life gain and graveyard synergy, but in exchange it’s one mana cheaper, a land when I need it, and lets me hang onto things I don’t want to pitch. The reasons I’m not running it are really that it’s not card advantage unless I have my commander out to take advantage of the cards I pitch and I’m hesitant about a more etb tapped lands, but it’s great card selection and if my commander is out I can use the artifacts I pitch so I’ve gone back and forth about including it.
Thrilling Discovery is also a good card, but I think I would rather run more Conjurer's Bauble or Chromatic Star effects over it. They are effectively 2 mana draw three with an upside when my commander is out and have more overall synergy with the deck.
As for Mox Tantalite I did run it for a little while, but I ended up cutting it. Once it was in the grabeyard it’s a great target for my commander, but I really never wanted to be suspending it and waiting three turns so it was too slow unless I could pitch it directly to the graveyard and this deck doesn’t have enough self mill/discard to do that super reliably.
I appreciate the ideas though and will consider them more when I’m tinkering with the deck.

Treasure Vault is probably better than Darksteel Citadel, but it’s close. However, in your deck Darksteel Citadel is probably better than Vault of Whispers, as you have nothing that needs black mana (if you’re ever not casting Vault Skirge for , you’re doing something wrong).
-
regardless of the point above, I think your deck is lacking enough blue and white sources to be reliable, and i’d be dropping a bunch of the black & colourless lands in favour of more lands that can provide white/blue.

Chromatic Lantern is an absolutely tragically terrible card. Maybe you’re thinking of it being useful is a hangover from Commander?? In any non-edh format the card is just really, really bad - 3 mana for this effect is not playable. At least upgrade it to Talisman of Progress if you’re wanting a mana-rock that sticks around. Although I also think that Chromatic Star/Chromatic Sphere are also much better options.

wallisface, Caerwyn, jethstriker, yes, that makes sense, so I shall keep my existing lands, but I actually did have Darksteel Citadel in this deck, before I replaced it with Treasure Vault, or do you believe that the citadel is superior? Also, I feel that both Chromatic Sphere and Chromatic Star are radically inferior to Chromatic Lantern, so I cannot in good conscience replace the lantern with those cards.

If you really like the Master of Etherium route, I suggest swap the bridge with Darksteel Citadel. You already have Glimmervoid and Chromatic Lantern to filter the color of mana you need. Although I would also suggest to swap the lantern with Chromatic Star and/or Chromatic Sphere.

Trying to optimise option 1 while still trying to keep things reasonably close to an average of $1-per-card:
- 20x Lands
- 4x Sylvan Scrying
- 4x Expedition Map
- 4x Chromatic Star
- 4x Chromatic Sphere
- 4x Ancient Stirrings
- 4x Oblivion Stone
- 4x Endbringer
- 4x Devourer of Destiny
- 4x Breaker of Creation
- 4x Ugin, the Ineffable
Note both Oblivion Stone and Ugin, the Ineffable give you potential mainboard answers to Blood Moon (albeit slow)

My first thought is that it looks too much like you’re doing two things here, and you need to pick a lane. Tron decks either only do ramping/assembling-tron early, and then win with their impactful large-mana cards, OR the deck sticks relatively low to the ground, gaining potential speed from assembling tron, but primarily just trying to be aggressive and win the game fast.
By trying to enact both parts of that plan I think you’ll struggle to do either - so personally i’d first suggest picking a lane, and ditching the other half of the cards that don’t help you achieve that.
Here’s some very-loose examples of what i’m getting at. I’ve tried to mostly use cards already in your current list:
Option 1, Ramp Eldrazi Tron
- 20x Lands
- 4x Sylvan Scrying
- 4x Expedition Map
- 4x Chromatic Star
- 4x Ancient Stirrings
- 4x Oblivion Stone
- 4x Artisan of Kozilek
- 4x Bane of Bala Ged
- 4x Breaker of Creation
- 4x Endbringer
- 4x Oblivion Sower
Option 2, Aggressive Eldrazi Tron
- 24x Lands
- 4x Ancient Stirrings
- 4x Expedition Map
- 4x Horrific Assault
- 4x Spatial Contortion
- 4x Endless One
- 4x Glaring Fleshraker
- 4x Matter Reshaper
- 4x It That Heralds the End
- 4x Wumpus Aberration
It feels like on an ultra budget, the first ramp option is going to be more viable - its hard to find decent low-money cards for option 2.

If you wanna get back into blue, maybe consider Chromatic Star, possibly over Synthesizer
