For sure, but I have made it a point in all my decks that use wages to have plenty of artifact destruction. So... good luck keeping that around.  ::)

It could, but I feel like there are usually better options for your artifact slot. Most decks don't run more than YWR/CoP and sometimes another one that fits the theme (something like Ark or Golden Throne).

And then there's the fact that Art destruction is rather common these days.

Could definitely see Basin getting added to Mill decks with a NT offense.  :o

Assuming the game keeps going in its present direction mill being competitive is almost guaranteed eventually. It's the nature counter to extremely fast decks and I'm very excited for it to hopefully soon be more than a casual troll your opponent strat.

Do you think Seven Lamps of Fire will become a staple if mill becomes more popular?

I think that between Seven Lamps and Tables of the Law mill will make a point to run artifact destruction.

No. Seven Lamps doesn't do enough to justify the artifact opportunity cost in a non-mill matchup and even against mill it's fully negatable and if a mill deck is ever competitive you can be sure it will have plenty of territory negate for exactly this reason.
