Lazav : I'll have what she was having

This goal of this casual EDH deck is to win by stealing, copying, gaining card advantage and playing win-more spells. Who needs control?

Highlights and synergies

• Quicksilver Amulet likes big expensive creatures.
• Darksteel Plate makes Lazav, Dimir Mastermind very resilient
• Duskmantle Guildmage + Mindcrank : Good game
• Expedition Map can fetch Cabal Coffers, Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth or Vesuva depending on board state.
• Altar of Dementia stops desserters from joining their master
• Rocks (Basalt Monolith, Coalition Relic, Sol Ring, Thran Dynamo) and acceleartors (Burnished Hart, Solemn Simulacrum, Cabal Coffers, Vesuva) ensure that I can hard cast high CMC spells
• Telepathy is almost self explanatory
• Fair amount of tutors. Also some steal cards are better than tutors (I'm looking at you Bribery and at you Acquire).

Since I'm only running two colors, I've kept out most of the crappy UB dual lands, to allow for as many basics as possible.

Rhystic Study and Exsanguinate does not really fit the theme, but I feel they are too good to leave out. Can you convince me otherwise?

I would very much like suggestions on how tune the deck for more power.
