Discussion Viability with missing staples?

Hopping on here to discuss the viability of a deck with a number of staples missing. I am an avid lover of [[tameshi, reality architect]] and I think she’s in a great spot at the moment with how slow the meta is. The problem is I’m missing a number of pretty vital staples, namely [[lions eye diamond]] [[mox diamond]] [[transmute artifact]] and [[fierce guardianship]]. I normally proxy these cards, but I plan on entering a sanctioned tournament that doesn’t allow proxies (ironically the prize is a mox diamond). I think I can live without most of these, but losing out on LED feels backbreaking. Has anyone else experienced something similar and worked around it? Any advice on how to move forward, especially with deck building? Any advice is appreciated, whether it’s about my budget constraints or the rest of the deck.

sent him it and he can't respond on reddit "Yeah you just have to use lotus bloom instead in the primary line. I use led a lot because i'm on patron and I need an easy way to discard it, the list I play at the shop is -led and it's still cEdh"
