SIlumgar's Control NOOB Help

Standard UB (Dimir)

OK, I got into magic a couple of months ago and got hooked. This is my first real deck from scratch after buying tons of packs. The Idea is maximum consistency and versatility.

Basically I'm trying to counter almost everything being thrown at me while wearing down my opponent with Palace Siege and Silumgar, the Drifting Death .

Palace Siege: 4 point life swing every upkeep.

Silumgar, the Drifting Death : Block any creatures that slip through, or just wear down opponent.

Dragonlord Silumgar : Just seemed to fit this deck

Crux of Fate : Clear the board, save your Dragons

Bile Blight: Good for clearing tokens/small creatures, and CHEAP!

Hero's Downfall: Getting rid of what slips through.

Liliana Vess: Limit their hand, manage your deck, and Steal their monsters.

Jace, the Living Guildpact : Deck control and removing threats.

Asphyxiate : Destroy what your counter cards miss.

Anticipate: Deck control.

Radiant Fountain : more health gain.

Death Wind: More clearing creatures

Learn from the Past: Just refresh the deck.

So that's it, built this from cards I already had but im willing to buy more. I need suggestions on removing planeswalkers, since my brother got Ugin, the Spirit Dragon in a booster pack. I want Hero's Downfall I just don't want to pay for it especially since it will be dropping out of standard soon i think? Also on cards to replace Reach of Shadows and possibly Bile Blight since that is pretty much just to remove creatures.

All feedback is greatly appreciated as I am extremely new to MTG. Even if your opinion is, "this deck sucks, and here is why."
