What's the cost of this deck if I were to build it?  Does it run well?

I have to say that I am not a big fan of an off balanced deck.  What I mean us that you have too many creatures.  I have built similar decks like this and they generally are not very successful.  I would understand if you had creatures with abilities like {royal assassin}, {Guul Draz assassin}, {Elvish lyrist}, etc.  I build decks on a 20/20/20 rule......20 land 20 creature 20 other spells.  That is a good starting point and you go from there.  An Aggro deck may have 19-21 land 22-26 creatures 14-18 other spells.  A Control deck will have 22-24 land 14-18 creatures 24-28 other spells.  Those numbers could vary but that is close to averages for my play style.  I find the most successful decks have balance.....hope this is helpful :)
