Thanks DemonDragonJ, they are my favorite as well, it's always great meet another angel enthusiast.

Regarding your considerations:

For Deathbringer Liege, he is in a very crowded slot, the five mana spot have a lot sweet angels, if you put him next to Baneslayer Angel, he is strickly a better creature, but again... ANGELS. Also still hurts me take Witch of the Moors out, if a could fit her back in, i probaly will. But is something to consider, the removal built in is very intresting.

As for Thought Vessel and Reliquary Tower, i din't feel the need for expand my hand size, never really bothered me. Aside from the moment that i put in Necropotence for a little while, than i needed those cards kkk, but i moved to another deck.

As for Greed, i whanted to put it, in a early version of the deck, but i alredy own Arguel's Blood Fast  ^Flip, so used insted, and it put a lot of work, that i decide to stick with it. When Black Market Connections realease, i make the change for that. I personaly believe that you can't have such think as "too much draw", so i don't know what i take it out for put Greed in, but i not shure if is that much better than Arguel's Blood Fast  ^Flip.

As for Debt to the Deathless, i don't think is that much efficient, the way i see it, you have to sink in a lot mana to make count, the only way my deck can make that much mana is with Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx, so i don't know if is a good idea dedicated a slot for that card, with a small chance to make a splash.

As for your question regarding Fellwar Stone it never was a problem to me, it fix my mana somethimes, but most of the times i alredy have the lands to do that, it is in there mostly because of the limited amount of mana rocks that exists for only 2 mana, but if i feel the need, Thought Vessel is a solid replacement, as you suggested.

Sorry for the long ass response. Again, i appreciate the love for the deck, feel free to give more suggestions, flavor choices are welcome too.

Arguel's Blood Fast  ^Flip {1}{B}{B}

Sorcery

As an additional cost, sacrifice a creature. Then, create a number of Blood tokens equal to its power plus it's toughness.

Until the beginning of your next upkeep, Blood tokens you control have "{2}, {T}, sacrifice this token: You gain 3 life."

Sapphire Wurm {4}{U}{U}{U}

Creature - Wurm

Ward {4}

Whenever Sapphire Wurm becomes the target of a spell or ability you don't control, draw cards equal to that spells or permanents mana value.

5/6

A nice, solid mono blue rare creature as a draft bomb. Probably garbage if you pull it outside of draft, to be honest.

In light of that, make another really solid draft card that kinda sucks elsewhere.

Terror of the Caves {2}{B}{B}{B}

Creature - Bat Horror

Flying, Defender

Whenever ~ enters the battlefield or attacks, put a -1/-1 counter onto target creature.

~ may attack as though it didn't have defender as long as an opponent controls a permanent with a counter on it.

6/4

The Phyrexian consider their oil a strength. But there are creatures long forgotten that perceive the biting stench as a trail to fresh meat.

I did multiple versions of this design on here, but I think I like this one best both with regards to the numbers and the flavour. Aclazotz is still an unknown entity on Ixalan, and propably our best chance at a legendary Bat God. For source material: Arguel's Blood Fast  ^Flip

This will be my challenge. Create a legendary creature - Bat God named Aclazotz, God of the Night. And be sure to have it have an adequate power level for a creature that rivals the Threefold Sun.

I'll echo other commenters - focus in on lands and staples. A deck with bad spells and good lands usually outperforms a deck with bad lands and good spells.

Arguel's Blood Fast  ^Flip, Eye of Vecna Dreadhorde Invasion, are all worth playtesting to see if you can support a slower gameplan, cause getting life low without fetch into shock is hard.

I'd go mine death's shadow sideboards for cheap tech for whatever matchups you feel weakest against then run it mainboard. Unholy Heat & Terminate are worth looking at for spots if you can support the mana pips.

Sign in Blood is great as you can force it on the opponent as well if needed! You might consider Arguel's Blood Fast  ^Flip too…plays initially similar to Sign in Blood but considering your life gain/drain strategy, it could provide you a way to sacrifice creatures to victory for a wincon.
