What about making it more controlling and adding blue. Using {pristine talisman}, {chalice of life}, {rhox faithmender} with {tezzeret, agent of bolas}. You could also add the two wellsprings and {phyrexian core} package to smooth draws and gain a bit of life. Even an {archangel's light} for lots of life late game. Might need some type of controlling elements with all that, like spot removal and board wipes. Maybe {sun Titan} and {phantasmal image} package. Sun Titan can buy back lots of your card advantage. There's probably more life gain artifacts too, like {trading post}. I know it's a completely different direction with the deck, but the chalice and rhox got me thinking about it.

I've been play testing this against junk walker and other non blue decks and it's raunchy. I got up past 100 life with a couple rox faithmenders and the chalice is the icing on the cake for sure. Lingering helps stall and matches up great with the vault. It's a neat little deck to play

Yep, basically another version completely. Post something up like you mentioned.
