This is a pretty neat deck.I tested it out with my Skyshroud Sentinels deck, and 1st game yours went infinite :)

After some more games yours still had the upper hand, but pretty close at very low life before the exile control kept my creatures at bay until yours built up. (it held at 1 life for about 4 turns) and then Manniflip won :)

Today was a Nemesis pack, and the top pick was Fanatical Devotion. What a great card! And it's going to see play soon too, in Stealing away souls!

Other fun stuff included ...

• Three Spellshapers. We'd seen the creature class before (on Jaya Ballard, Task Mage), but hadn't really dived in. They have a fun flavor -- mages who can turn anything into a particular spell. Our favorite was a Stronghold Biologist, who can turn anything (even a land) into essentially a Remove Soul
  
• Some interesting land interactions in Coiling Woodworm and Submerge
• A Caw Elf! OK, Skyshroud Sentinel is more expensive and doesn't have the evasion of a Squadron Hawk, but it was fun to see the mechanic 10 years before Caw Blade.

And now, for the rare:

Sliptide Serpent

Meh.

Though it's always fun to get the card that's on the pack itself!
