First attempt a standard. Never played it, so im building a deck to prepare.

I don't like it.  :(.  Vexing devil is pretty much just a 4 dmg 1 drop.   

Since you dont have snapcaster you should main deck {torpor orb} cause it shuts off the sacrifice on the devil.

I would go with 4 {Augur of Bolas} and buy some {Sulfur Falls}

Any way to keep this from removing {Augur of Bolas}'s effects?

I kinda remember a card that won't let you sacrifice permanents

{sigarda host of herons} and {angel of jubilation} both dont stop your own devil. As for the Augur problem, find a better card. {stormblood berserker} or {stromkirk noble} are good starts.
