I would cut down to 1-2  {Augur of Bolas} considering your draw power makes 4 a little unnecessary. Especially since resto angels flicker eff. I would look into making enough room for 1-2  {Terminus}, 1-2  {Geist of Saint Traft}, and 1  {Elixir of Immortality}. 1-2 terminus for miracle draw chance, Geist for midrange, and elixir to recycling.
i agree with this. also, where's the delver?

Why would you put delver in a control deck? It's an aggro card really

Definitely not delver, definitely some terminus.  Also {Barter in Blood} is a great control card, maybe sideboard against Geist, etc?

I prefer far and away and or renounce the guilds as sac cards. Also thinking about mainboarding either terminus or sin collector instead of warped physic

It's mainly mill but at FNM last night it was doing both. It has trouble largely with  {Sire of Insanity}.

{Grisly Spectacle} deals with him pretty well, plus it will help you mill a bit too.

Even though you like it, I agree that 4 {sphinx's revelation} is too much. Getting stuck with two of those in an opening hand is a recipe for failure... I personally think 3 is plenty. I think 2 {orzhov charm} is definitely warranted here, spot removal, and getting those snapcasters back is always nice.
