First thing's first you want to have 60 cards in your deck. Try cutting out some of the things you don't need so you can streamline the deck.

Taking a look, cut out the Bloodline Keepers and Erdwal Rippers and the Blademasters to max out on Nobles,Neonates,Heirs, Captains and Aristrocrats. Then, take out the shocks to max out on the curses and try mainboarding some shrines.

^ this but your method was one I considered.  My suggestion is excel really well at one thing. And touch on other things secondary. Either you need to go aggro swarm with Burn secondary or you need to aggro burn with some fast creatures secondary

If you want max speed, you need to have efficient spells and a small curve, a deck like this should curve out at 4 with the top of your curve being Aristrocrat (I personally love Olivia's mechanics but she is just too slow) your average game should look like this.

Turn 1: Noble
Turn 2: Neonate or Curse
Turn 3: Captain or Heir
Turn 4: Aristrocrat

Hit every card in this list and you are near assured victory.

And take out Assault Strobe, it is bad when you have captains giving everyone first strike.

Falkenrath Aristrocrat is amazing for this deck, "dies to removal" is not a valid argument when talking about creatures because if that were the case no one would run them.

Also can sac and make indestructible, so burning isn't a huge problem.

Only if you make the mistake of playing her without a captain out.

Dude I don't care what you say she sucks. I have played a deck similar to this in tournament and have seen other decks with her and she gets stomped right out of the gate. For instant you can tragic slip her or dismember her and still kill her because it's not a destroy effect.

Few things DON'T die to a {Dismember} or especially a morbid {Tragic Slip}.
