I've been thinking about AIR after adding a splash color.
[mana]B[/mana] gives us Dark Confidant, which may be quite useful for "free" CA, Rakdos Charm and edict effects like Devour Flesh, Geth's Verdict and the ultimate walking edict, Gatekeeper of Malakir.
[mana]W[/mana] gives us really sexy sideboard tech with Rest in Peace, Stony Silence, Suppression Field, Path to Exile and some sweeper protection / direct damage in Boros Charm and Wear // Tear as you mentioned.
[mana]G[/mana] gives us above-the-curve creatures (Flinthoof Boar, etc) and artifact/enchantment removal (
Naturalize, Krosan Grip and creature protection (Vines of Vastwood).
[mana]U[/mana] gives us card draw stapled to removal with Electrolyze, Izzet Charm and cheap tempo with Vapor Snag. Maybe more, I'm not much of a blue mage.
I like the possibility of RW most.

After a bunch of testing against Tron, I've discovered that Magus of the Moon is too slow and simply swinging through his Wurmcoil Engine with Firefist Striker is the better way to go.
Maybe some number of Skullcrack are necessary to help with the lifegain matchups like Soul Sisters and Hexproof. Alternatively, Stigma Lasher for maximum lulz.
It doesn't fit within the budget theme of the deck as-is, but I'd love to swap my 8 fetches in and run Geth's Verdict and laugh at the hexproof decks I keep seeing.

I laughed out loud when I saw the decklist. Losing to this would put me on a mixture of tilt and amazement that I might never recover from.That Treasure Hunt list.... I must play it.
Yet another reason why I love my 4 sideboard Rakdos Charm.
