Any advice to make this deck faster/more reliable?

The battle plan is:

Start by dropping Codex Shredder for early self-milling or Death-Rite Shaman for early mana and mid-late ownage.

The best 2-drop would be Grisly Salvage to fill your graveyard with creatures. The other option is to drop a Boneyard Wurm that will probably die when it hits the battlefield, but then there will be a creature in your graveyard for later Splinterfrights and Boneyard Wurms.

Then, you finish with Splinterfright, Kessig Cagebreakers or Jarad, Golgari Lich Lord.

1x Gnaw to the Bone helps you gain about 8-12 life quite early.

2x Vampire Nighthawk to get rid of the opponent's creatures and gain some life.

2x Deadbridge Goliath because it's a great threat, and it works if you draw it or if it hits the graveyard.

Ultimate Price and Sever the Bloodline removal, as always.

1x Jarad's Orders to help me search Jarad and put Deadbridge into the graveyard, or (if I had enough lands) I can even search any other creature and put Jarad into the graveyard, then get him back to my hand using his ability.

Sideboard mainly against control.
