It might just be that the mana is going to be sketchy no matter what.
At least we finally have something to slot in the 4, but we probably can't run much more than that (so sad about Reality Smasher) for precisely this reason, so the change in this deck would likely be pretty gentle and minimal:
Just cut 2 3cmc threats, a 6cmc threat, and a discard spell for 4 TKS, and added a couple Warping Wail in place of other removal because that's my jam, but honestly it might just be too much for this poor, crappy mana base.
My mana base is as follows and I find it very strong. I no longer feel worried about slow or inconsistent mana at all (lots of duals, few colorless, no taplands). I plan to run Thought-Knot Seer post-OGW and then I will have 4 Caves of Koilos and probably lose a Shrine and a Flats maybe, or maybe 2 Shrines and keep the Flats.
If you do what you say you're going to do, you are going to have 11 sources of C. I suspect it will be difficult for you to cast Thought-Knot Seer consistently on so few C sources.
I think Map is also necessary to fix our mana, especially if you are running a lot of the new <> cards. If you just count out the number of B, W, <> sources that people have posted, they're all in the 12-15 range if you don't include map, which is lower than ideal.
