how does Eternal Dominion work for you? Once that cards comes off suspend, you're kinda stuck for the rest of the game, only casting Eternal Dominion on your upkeep.

yeah. but so far it has worked.
Basically, unless you are already loosing the game you will do just fine.
Since you can get artifacts creatures lands or enchantments you can usually answer threats with Oblivion Stone , Mindslaver and Terastodon etc
and you end up winning with Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre or something similar
also it works great the turn after a land wrath (Blightsteel Colossus , ? dont mind if i do)

but that all being said, I wish it were another Enter the Infinite or something

Think about what? I still don't think Eternal Dominion
would be the best. If someone wipes the board or has a counterspell a few turns in a row, you're stuck and can't cast spells still. You can't even suspend cards since it says you cast them once the last card comes off. It also seems like a "win-more" card which isn't something you want to do. If you overextend during a game and all of your opponents have answers for you, well you're stuck. Its better to use a card which will protect you winning than to only use when you are winning heavy handedly.

This may sound stupid at first, but Firemind's Foresight . That lets you go get Timecrafting , Counterspell , and Cunning Wish once it comes off of suspend. This lets you protect your side of the field while still having the added utility of the Cunning Wish .

Well I used to play Firemind's Foresight , to go get combo (Reset , Reiterate , Lightning Bolt ) but I cut it because it was too clunky
I never thought of just using it as a utility tutor like that, but the thing is, when something comes off suspend I want it to be able to win the game. foresight doesnt to that. It just goes and gets some really good cards for me. I havent advanced my gameplan of finding a fatty and putting it into play at all.
I guess It could fall into the role the MLD are currently filling of comming down the same turn as (or a turn earlier than) a fatty. Kinda like added protection. But wouldnt it be better if it were just another Counterspell then? (which is what the slot it used to be in was filled with: Negate and Counterspell

If you resolve the Eternal Dominion the first time (and hence epic happens) You could always grap a Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir , Vexing Shusher or a Grand Abolisher or something to keep them from countering the second one

@Smith_and_Tonic I think if they print a sweet kraken in the next set Eternal Dominion or Utvara Hellkite would be the first to get cut for it.

So I have sadly decided it is time to questions Blood Moon , Magus of the Moon , Timetwister and Wheel of Fortune
I am not sure they are any good in the deck, and I need to consider alternatives.
Blood Moon and Magus of the Moon
Pros:
These cards are good against 3 and 5 color generals. They shut down manabases for the competitive lists. And if they do not shut them down completely they at least slow them down.
Cons:
Sometimes a dead card. And sometimes cannot cast it because I dont have access to an island.
Alternatives:

Timetwister and Wheel of Fortune
Pros:
The turn one or two wheel is the god hand, and can lead to victory faster then any other oppening. Wheel will also refill your hand your hand after you have suspended things. Timetwister can get rid of things on top of their lib. and both of them can get rid of cards that they have in their hand. Also, it works well with Consecrated Sphinx and Omniscience and sometimes Timetwister is needed for Enter the Infinite
Cons:
Your opponents draw 21 cards in a multiplayer game while you draw 7. Often a dead draw.
Alternatives:
Things that take counters off like Clockspinning or Paradox Haze
