concept for a high tier deck, not sure where to go with it

Modern Deck Help forum

okay, so I had an idea last night for a deck. please note this is NOT DECK HELP. this is a concept for a kind of deck that I think has some real potential for high level play.

first off, I am not a modern veteran. I am simply a brewer of oddities that work out sometimes.

so here's the idea: its a white/black ally deck, pretty standard. what I'm trying to do is add dredge, aristocrats and maybe even soul sisters into the mix.

These are the cards it would center around:

-Serra Ascendant as a possible win con

-Golgari Thug, Stinkweed Imp and Darkblast as dredge cards, with Golgari Thug being the most important b/c of its ability to grab back Reveillark in cases where that needs to happen. maybe a Dakmor Salvage or 2 as a just in case option.

-Immortal Servitude and March from the Tomb as mass rez spells for the dredged/sacrificed creatures, and possibly Rally the Ancestors

-Reveillark as another form of rez, but in this case it would be recurable with Golgari Thug.

-Cartel Aristocrat and Bloodthrone Vampire are our sac outlets, with bloodthrone being the better of the 2 b/c she acts as another win-con in certain situations.

-Bojuka Brigand, Hada Freeblade, Ondu Cleric, Zulaport Cutthroat and most importantly Kalastria Healer as easily recurrable win conditions with all of our sac outlets and mass rez/blink spells.

-last but not least in our lineup we would have Ghostway. This would let up trigger all of our rally abilities along with Reveillark's and also serves as protection against board wipes.

cards that are under consideration are Soul Warden and Soul's Attendant, but they aren't allies, so that's not great. Sins of the Past is a maybe b/c it would let us cast any milled March from the Tomb spells. Narcomoeba would only be a good addition if this went more towards soul sisters and aristocrats.

At any rate, please discuss what you think of the idea and what other cards could go into it and such. Any decklists made and playtested would be greatly appreciated, as I really feel this idea has great potential :)

another place to post any stuff you found and such would be the current brainstorming platform of dredge ally aristocrats (concept brainstorm).

If you are planning on using Reveillark shenanigans as a main part of the deck I would suggest also running Body Double for infinite loops of the effects.

I'm not sure whether or not this is any good but it's awesome and I will play it to the ends of the earth.

What you need is to make it abzan. Skip dredge and play Grisly Salvage and Satyr Wayfinder

Example

More consistent, much less mana required
