This is the list that I played at Vintage champs. I started off 4-0 but fell apart after that.
The list felt good, I think I let the deck down, not the other way around.

Well good job! Going 4-0 to start is still fantastic!

{Sulfur Elemental} only hates on Mentor, and I wanted more versatility in my SB.

{Æther Flash} can come in against Pyromancer, Dredge, etc. in addition to the mentor decks.

See you can tell I'm not anywhere close to a serious vintage player because I didn't even think about dredge

That's not the primary reason it's in the list (4 mana is a lot since you want it in play fast), but you want to have as many flexible cards as possible, since your sideboard is so strained by Shops and Dredge.

Yes, but partly because people were playing it at the trial on Saturday.
