Some changes im thinking about

switching out Blighted Steppe, Shambling Vent and Vault of the Archangel for Maze of Ith, Mystifying Maze and Reliquary Tower

Monologue Tax for Dark Tutelage

Words of Worship for Venser's Journal

and Brainstorm for Counterspell

overall these would lean the deck further into control and with the amount of card draw adds some needed increased hand size options

thoughts?

I love this deck! I've been toying with some cards, but I'm hesitant on some of them:

Omniscience: I tried to use it as a pseudo Smothering Tithe, but it doesn't work with X spells, and it's super expensive... Same happened with As Foretold

Mana Maze really slowed the table. But so did it with my deck! At the end I found it a bit fatigue-inducing, so I'm not sure...

Overburden and Mana Breach are interesting, specially at the early game. We barely have creatures, and don't play too many spells, so I think it can help.

The new Smuggler's Share should work pretty well here!

Enchanted Evening + destroy enchantments is mean. Also Aura Thief, which I love. I've tried a small package for this synergy, but have not played it yet, and I feel it's veeery niche. Getting a draw with Archon of Sun's Grace could be fun, I guess? Enchanted Evening has something that attracts me every time, though. Any other ideas to use it in this deck?

Meekstone was pretty effective.

Drumbellower is cheap mana-wise and allows us to overgift with Kwain. It feels like it needs more tap creatures, though, and I'm not sure it is worth it. But 3+ cards per round... Teferi, Who Slows the Sunset has another untap + lifegain. It should attract some gazes, though; is he worth it?

Words of Worship: with that much drawing, paying x to gain 5x life instead of drawing x could be interesting.

Wizard Class: hey! We don't have that many creatures, buuut this could become pretty stupid. Kwain Voltron anyone?

Ominous Seas has been cute: instant speed 8/8, you say?

Lay Claim it's another enchantment I like, and goes well with Open the Vaults.

I'm thinking of the New Capenna cards, let's see if some of them can work here too. Let's keep this deck brewing!

RandomZombie88 I'll drop what I do in my deck with lich:

Convalescent Care draw +4 on upkeep

Illusions of Grandeur draw +20 and loss of life never effects you

Second Chance gain a turn for 3 mana

Words of Worship draw lots

Ivory Tower changes the "meh" artifact into a draw on upkeep

Serra Ascendant , Rest for the Weary , Martyr of Sands , Beacon of Immortality , Words of Worship . if your willing to add green Heroes' Reunion , Kitchen Finks , and Armadillo Cloak . if you include higher power creatures you could include Feed the Clan . Baneslayer Angel , Divinity of Pride .

I am not saying you should add all of these, and they are all just options.

You might like these cards: Drogskol Reaver , Archangel of Thune , Cradle of Vitality (very good with big lifelinkers, of which you have many!), Zur's Weirding (with this and enough lifegain effects, you can stop your opponents from ever drawing another card), Regna, the Redeemer , Krav, the Unredeemed , Words of Worship (this results in crazy lifegain + drain when Oloro is out), Epicure of Blood

Hey Moosh528491, thanks for the suggestion! I've been dubbing over whether to run the Mystic or Herald of the Pantheon, or both. Once it's out I'm definitely trying it, I want to see if it can realistically grow big without dying to whatever is killing enchantments itself. Other than that, I don't want to skimp too much on the land enchantments and the untappers/mana dorks, since those can actually go infinite and I have the outlets for that kind of mana. I'm also really looking at Words of Worship , so that's competing for a slot -- I tend to lose quite a bit of life over the process of any given game, and anywhere I can get a reasonable amount back while still doing stuff would be great. No clue what to cut, though.

Words of Worship is a real killer if you have it and Oloro on the field. You can pay to gain 5 life and have your opponent lose 1 life as many times as you'd like. How's that for taxing your opponent out in a hurry?
