I saw a version of this deck with those two cards and {Prophetic Prism}. It also had no burn. Just spells to dig with and elzdazi.
Can you give me a list of +? and -? to add/remove from my deck to make it better?

I just noticed I was two short in adding cards. There should be an {Ulamog, tge Infinite Gyre} and {Jin Gitaxis Core Augur} in there.

Other routes for this deck can be {Mindslaver} lock and using {Through the Breach} to cheat fatties into play.
