Cards you could add for added devotion in place of those cards.

A quick rundown of the first changes I'd try to implement.
Add:
- Start / Finish
- Ministrant of Obligation
- Doomed Traveler
- Not Forgotten
- Lingering Souls
- Diabolic Intent
- Altar's Reap , Bankrupt in Blood , Blood Divination , Costly Plunder
- Severed Strands , Bone Splinters
- Torgaar, Famine Incarnate , Demon of Catastrophes
Remove/trim:
- Knight of the White Orchid
- Spectral Reserves
- Vessel of Malignity
- Vessel of Ephemera
- Debtors' Knell
- Ethereal Absolution
- Always Watching
- Mindwrack Demon
- I'd go down to singles of all the legendary creatures, if you add Diabolic Intent or Diabolic Tutor
You'll want some way to deal with artifacts and enchantments, possibly Seal of Cleansing in the sideboard.
You don't have valuable many-for-ones ( Merciless Eviction , eg); if you want more play versus aggro decks you might add some. Languish , Dusk / Dawn , things like that.
Also you don't have exile-versions of removal, but white and black are good for it, if you wanted to give up some of the "sacrifice for insane value" plan. Utter End and its variants.

Flooremoji, I like Keening Stone because it insta kills with Traumatize. I will also save money by taking out Nemesis of Reason. I realized that as much as Phenax, God of Deception is good, he doesn't fit super well in the deck. By the time he is out, my creatures would rather be attacking than tapping for mill, and I only have one big wall, the others are small. I can also sideboard Crypt Incursion. That is 3 cards to put in. I say another Fraying Sanity, a Vessel of Malignity and a Wight of Precinct Six. Do you think that's a good idea?

I love this! but if you want to keep the creatureless theme you need some more burn/draw cards likeBloodchief Ascension , Quest for the Nihil Stone , Shrieking Affliction , Liliana's Caress , Pyromancer Ascension, Trespasser's Curse, Vessel of Malignity ,Waste Not Everlasting Torment, (MAYBE (prob not) Imminent Doom)),Megrim, Necrogen Mists, Phyrexian ArenaUnderworld Dreams , Endless Whispers, Leyline of the Void, Magmatic Core, Spiteful Visions, Torment of Scarabs, Exquisite Blood, Gibbering Descent ,or if creatures are ok here are a couple ideas Genju of the Spires ,Satyr Firedancer , Hammer of Purphoros, Awaken the Ancient

Murphy77 I don't understand why that's good. Startled Awake Flip isn't a permanent unless it's a Persistent Nightmare Flip, and if it's that then I may as well just attack with it. Perpetual Timepiece is probably fine as a one-of, but I'm milling my opponent a lot more than myself, so the first ability isn't super useful.
Taking out the Implement of Malice and Vessel of Malignity seems fine, but I don't think Winds of Rebuke is a good enough replacement. Cruel Reality and Witness the End for Anticipates seems pretty good. Why would I want Cancel over Censor though? It's good for budget, but I think having playable counterspells is worth an extra $3.12. For the last swap you recommend, I would take out one of the Unburdens, but as a member of the Mind Rot fan club, I don't think it's allowed.
Natpapetti Interesting, but I would be compelled to go Sultai (see above reasons), and the three-color support in the current Standard is a little expensive.

If you play Winds of Rebuke on Startled Awake Flip, then you get to re-play Startled Awake Flip. Add in a few Perpetual Timepiece and you can recycle from your grave to your library. I would try the following:
-1 Implement of Malice, -1 Vessel of Malignity, +2 Winds of Rebuke
-1 Cruel Reality, -1 Witness the End, +2 Anticipate
-3 Censor, +3 Cancel - - -2 Unburden, +2 Perpetual Timepiece

HyperionMI6 The problem with that is that milling people out is really my only win-condition, so I need the Vessel of Paramnesia for that end, and Cruel Reality as a backup. I could probably take of the Vessels, though; it's not a ton of milling, and I've been meaning to find a way to put a couple more Startled Awake Flips into the mainboard. How about this; Remove from mainboard 2 copies of Vessel of Paramnesia and 1 copy of Cruel Reality, remove from sideboard 2 copies of Startled Awake Flip. Add to mainboard 2 copies of Startled Awake Flip and 1 copy of Vessel of Malignity, add to sideboard 2 copies of Vessel of Malignity.
