Dropped:
and a couple basic lands
Added:
Spell Crumple - works with Tunnel Vision
Palinchron - gives me an infinite mana combo
Peregrine Drake - gives me another infinite mana combo
Darksteel Ingot - again great mana fixing
Plague Wind - mass removal
Evacuation - helps if I get overwhelmed similar to a mass removal.
and a few nonbasics for better mana fixing.
Spell Crumple as a 2nd Hinder
Crucible of Worlds + Fetchland/Strip Mine

@Internet_the_Explorer - Thanks for the feedback and questions. There are several wincons. However, as I mentioned earlier it is currently tailored in a 1 v 1 and I'd like to expand it to multiplayer.
The main wincons right now are:
Hinder or Spell Crumple or Vessel of Endless Rest a card to the bottom of their library and then follow that up with a Tunnel Vision to mill the opponent entirely. Unless they have an eldrazi in their library then thats game.
Sorin Markov takes an opponent down to 10 and then its a pretty easy trip to get that final 10 health.
Deadeye Navigator with AEther Adept bounces every creature out there and allows me to bounce any creature that comes in except shroud/hexproof. Once I had Time Warp and/or Time Stretch , the navigator with Mnemonic Wall /Archaeomancer will give me infinite turns.
I will add palinchron, I just need to pick it up. With him, may have a couple other additions like Phantasmal Image , Exsanguinate , and Profane Command . Think of the maybeboard more like an aquireboard and figuring out where to put it.
I had Leyline of Anticipation in before and it ended up doing absolutely nothing so I don't see me putting in Vedalken Orrery . Force of Will is a little out of my budget right now and thus will not be in the deck either.
@fireteam Thanks for the suggestions. I like Plague Wind definitely will do well in the deck, I'll add it to the acquireboard. Obviously crucible of worlds with strip mine would be nice as would Vampiric Tutor but both are a little expensive right now. I'll put them on the maybeboard and see what happens.
I like the shadowmoor lands, didn't know about them before. Also Spell Crumple will go in the main board just need to pick a copy up thanks for reminding me about that card.
I agree with three of the other lands you mentioned, only one I don't get is academy ruins. Since I'm only running a few artifacts that seems rather odd. Especially since they're just mana stones (except lightning greaves). I'll think about it, but the other 3 are probably good calls especially once I pick up Venser, Shaper Savant

Alright been working hard on this deck lately. It's surpassed my other EDH deck and is actually performing rather well. I'm thinking of picking up a crucible of worlds, but after I pick up a venser, shaper savant.
Also any thoughts on the general himself. I seem to rarely cast him right now, though when I do cast him, he does pretty well with the deck. I guess I"m just wondering if there might be a better u/b control creature that I should consider over Dralnu, Lich Lord

I haven't gotten to play in tournaments. In casual it does pretty well. Very well in 1 v 1, though I don't know how well it will do in multiplayer. Until I add Palinchron and others i don't think it will hold up in a tournament.
It is fun to play though, thanks for the +1

Edited the deck with some of the suggestions and working to figure out how to continue to make it consistent. Its been doing pretty well, but you're right its definitely tailored for 1 v 1. I'd like to make it more multi in its abilities.
