This looks like a very solid deck.

I'd recommend sideboard ing in 2 {Triad of the Fates}.

It is pretty solid it came 5th-8th at the pro tour!
{Triad of Fates} is so slow! It's good in commander and casual! But in standard not so sure

What's your reason for sideboarding it?

Removal heavy decks. Also creature heavy decks so you permanently get rid of their things.

The problem with it is that it take two turns to remove anything. One to put the counter and one to exile it, plus you're giving up card Advantage at the same time. Not sure that it's a standard playable card.

Keep in mind that this deck was tested for a specific metagame-it was built to kill the mono blue devotion deck (and other devotion decks) and has a very reasonable matchup against the other big players (GW aggro, Esper/UW, and RG Monsters). That being said I think it's a really solid starting point for a deck, but needs to be tweaked for your meta. And I think it was 2 Sin Collector, and 3 Obzedat main.

Desecration demon turning into a pile of money. If you don't pay with mana, you pay with your permanents. It's very much Orzhov
