Really cool concept! I have a few ideas.

Blitz of the Thunder-Raptor helps deal with planeswalkers, and might perform better than Chaos Warp. Run Brittle Blast over Thunderous Wrath.

Not sure about Dismiss into Dream. How many single-target spells or effects are you running? I count 6.

Mana Drain over Dissipate: Having resources for damage later is almost always going to serve you more. Plus, it's a great target for Isochron Scepter.

Speaking of walkers, definitely replace Cloud Key with Rowan, Scholar of Sparks  ^Flip. It's straight up better. Strongly consider Ral, Storm Conduit, if only that it ramps up damage with your commander out. Consider Koth, Fire of Resistance as a decent land-fixer (which means you'll draw less lands and have more mana), and Jaya Ballard for simple acceleration.

If your pool is competitive, you could run Back to Basics or at least Blood Moon. This will slow down many decks and give you more time. Adding fetches in your colors (should be 5) means that you can take out 2 islands and 3 mountains and still hit your curve.

Not sure about Breaking Point and Curse of the Swine. Instead, consider Puppet's Verdict and either Winter's Chill or Cyclonic Rift.

Reins of Power and Insurrection could replace Chain Reaction and Incite Rebellion, allowing you to use those resources against opponents and kill them, which would have the added benefit of removing their creatures.

I know you don't want to run any creatures, but Stuffy Doll is a decent deterrent and is too funny not to leave out.

I did a quick search to find other new cards to consider for the list (other than the suggested Solphim above). Some are obviously better than others, but they are

Roar of Resistance - Haste to tokens AND you can pump ANY creature, whether you own it or not!

Exuberant Fuseling - At first glance it seems like this would work well with your treasure subtheme. Although, it would take a bit to setup up and could be a waste to just sac it, if Ib was out.

Gleeful Demolition - Pay a red and sac a treasure (so "2 mana" total) or another artifact to create 3x 1/1 gobos. Kind of wish it was instant speed though.

Koth, Fire of Resistance - Not sure what to think about this one. Seems okay-ish. I guess it does help get lands out of your deck, but it has to live for 3 full cycles to ult.. IDK.. maybe I'm missing something here

Ichormoon Gauntlet and Tekuthal, Inquiry Dominus are both ludicrously strong and warrant immediate inclusion the deck once prices stabilize. The easy cut is Kasmina, Enigma Sage which Ichormoon Gauntlet outclasses in almost every way. Tekuthal is much tougher to find a slot for and take a lot of careful consideration before I make the change. Lands have to change, with the amount of fetches and tri lands, colors are basically meaningless for this deck.

As for new planeswalkers printed in ONE, several of them have a lot of utility and will help plenty of decks out there, but the only one I am looking at is Koth, Fire of Resistance and the place he will have for him in Fireheart, my Chandra tribal deck. I like Nahiri, Nissa, Vraska, and Lukka as cards, but dont have decks that could take full advantage of them.
