I guess OP wants it to be 'keyworded' like "dies" was. What word would you replace ETB with though?
When Aegis Angel is born?
When Huntmaster of the Fells arrives?
When Kitchen Sphinx lands?
When Faerie Imposter busts in?
When Dread Cacodemon pops in?
When Malfegor shows up?
Instead of myr Battlesphere....1 copy of Blightsteel Collosus?
Instead of Divination, See Beyond?

This guy, would either eat up several turns worth of mana to get a slow permanent that relies on your already have some board presence (after wasting said mana), or dies without generating any advantage.

I'd say the battlesphere provides more functionality, and though blightsteel can in some cases be an instawin (of course, not against someone with spot removal or blockers), it doesn't flow well with the rest of the deck. Plus, battlesphere can be the nutso in this deck.
I guess turning it into a kind of toolbox wincon (2 battlespere, 1 blightsteel, 1 steel hellkite), to kill your opponent by using what they are weak against could work. Of course, the main wincon would still be the triumvirate of empires.
As for divination, do you really expect see beyond to be more than a 1 mana cantrip? This deck doesn't discard fast enough to make it become a recall.

See Beyond.... not the new M12 card. That way you could shuffle away any big things so you can Forgemaster them out again.

In Limited, are the pieces any good seperate? The Throne seems to be first-pickable, but I'm not sold on the other two. The Scepter is okay if you want turn 4 Bloodthirst but is kind of useless otherwise. I've seen the Throne see some play, but keeping a creature tapped down for 3 seems really mana-intensive.
In Limited, a reusable tapper is a reusable tapper...
it maybe costly to activate but if it enables you to survive until you get what your looking for, it's all worth it... and it's Limited... where re-usable effects are gold...
as for the Throne, token producers for a cheap cost of 1 is great...

Ah right
Would work, though my list works post rotation (not that that matters much)
In between, that would probably be a better option though.
1) 0 Chrome Mox
2) 0 Mana Crypt
3) 1 Sol Ring
4) 1 Sensei's Divining Top3) 1 Sol Ring
4) 1 Sensei's Divining Top
5) 2 Lightning Greaves
6) 2 Scroll Rack
7) 3 Darksteel Ingot
8) 3 Chromatic Lantern
9) 3 Oblivion Stone
10) 6 Duplicant
Bonus: Hall of the Bandit Lord
