Your deck is mono-colored, so Terramorphic Expanse Is just a slower mountain: replace it with a mountain or another utility land. Unless the deck centers around your hand being larger than 7 cards, Reliquary Tower is just a filler land; Replace it with Buried Ruin for another way to maintain your combo pieces.

I just thought of a few other useful tools:
- Commandeer is another good zero-mana... not counter, but disruptor. It's become more popular, I've noticed, but it's still not something a lot of people see coming. Similarly, Misdirection is another handy tool for disruption, but it's more limited than Commandeer (though it's one less card to exile...).
- Teferi's Tutelage is another fun mill toy. It's a bit more limited than Sphinx's Tutelage, but why not double up the fun! Similarly, you can use Teferi's Puzzle Box to mill your opponents even faster while also disrupting their game play.
- Capsize is another all-purpose bounce, and reusable as well. Sunder is another great way to lose friends at instant speed. You could also consider Mystical Tutor to help dig for things you need.
- Clever Impersonator is more versatile than Copy Enchantment for one more mana, but it may not be extremely necessary.
- There are some lands that might be handy for your strategy. Oboro, Palace in the Clouds gives you reusable landfall; Boseiju, Who Shelters All makes sure your essential Instant and Sorcery spells don't get countered (e.g. Cyclonic Rift); Field of Ruin kills troublesome lands and gives mandatory search (and landfall), which is relevant for Archive Trap; and Academy Ruins is a more reusable Buried Ruin.
- Cyclonic Rift pairs very well with Memory Jar. Just saying. :P

Hey I'm not feeling well for the past few days. I want to take the time to provide some feedback for this deck when I can fully examine it. For now, cabal stronghold should be cut because you don't have enough basics.
Maybe add a Whispersilk Cloak and a Buried Ruin? Perhaps cut one of your swords? Body and mind seems the weakest.

Buried Ruin - Recursion
Sanctum of Ugin - Tutor
Basalt Monolith + Forsaken monument =
Gerrard's Hourglass Pendant + Emrakul = Good synergy. Hourglass helps with recursion from a vandablast.
Maybe a Vedalken Orrery/Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter/Skittering Cicada for flash so you don't overextend as easily? Colorless decks almost always have high cmc and lots of artifacts so any opponent worth their salt after a few games should recognize this and adjust their plan. This helps keep them guessing. Not necessary but nice to have.
Rings of Brighthearth + Basalt Monolith + 2 mana = + top = Cast your entire deck
Rings + Voltaic Key (swap out manifold) + everflowing chalice (4 counters) =
Metalworker + Rings + Voltaic key =
Card Draw - Colorless doesn't have too much, you already run both kozileks which is great. Commander is a value engine which is nice. You could add a Staff of Nin for more but IMO it's not needed. How do you feel your card situation is?
Removal - Colorless has expensive removal options, you have all the good ones. Everything seems solid.
Mana Curve - A bit high but understandable for a colorless deck, especially with your commander. You could add more ramp should you feel you need. I usually recommend the most ramp in Kozilek commander decks because your commander is a draw source but here I'm unsure. Your ramp seems sufficient, how do you feel?

Mystic Forge + Top + artifact cost reducer = Draw your deck. Forge is great "draw" so to speak as well.
Ugin, the Ineffable - "Draw", removal and ramp
Buried Ruin/Gerrard's Hourglass Pendant - Recursion
Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter/Vedalken Orrery - Flash. Might be anti-synergstic with the haste commander but mitigates over-extending and allows your "trigger each turn" card to trigger more often. Plus, isn't it cool to be like the blue player?
Maybe Strionic Resonator - Double attack and ETB's, also note Lithoform Engine for flexibility

Sanctum of Ugin - Tutor
Eye of Ugin - Tutor + Ramp
Buried Ruin - Recursion
Mystic forge + Sensei's Divining Top + artifact cost reducer = draw your whole deck
Basalt Monolith + forsaken monument =
Rings of Brighthearth + basalt + 2 mana = + top = draw + cast your entire deck
Rings + voltaic key + Everflowing Chalice (4 counters) =
Metal worker + voltaic key + rings =
Scorched Ruins + Rings + Deserted Temple = . Temple has the added benefit of politics or ramp with urza land.
Emrakul, the Promised End + Gerrard's Hourglass Pendant = Strong synergy, each piece is good on it's like (like many of the combos I've listed)
Karn, the Great Creator + lattice = Hard lock
To synergize with darksteel monolith, you could add some flash (which also has the added benefit of limiting your overextension into a boardwipe) such as Vedalken Orrery/Liberator, Urza's Battlethopter/Skittering Cicada
Blinkmoth Well + Blinkmoth Urn = One sided ramp. Well can deal with opposing artifacts and urn always makes you ahead. Should you feel inclined, Winter Orb might be worth it (if you don't like friends) as you can break parity with it. Even if you can't, you use primarily artifact ramp anyways. It can help slow down the faster pace decks.

TRANScend +1
Arterial Flow > Despise - ? I think the extra 2 mana is worth it to make each opponent discard 2 cards.
Go for the Throat > Rend Flesh - Costs 1 less, although meta dependent.
Sheoldred's Edict > Doomblade - Hits each opponent. While you don't get to target the creature, it is more flexible and isn't stopped by hexproof or shroud, meta dependent.
Buried Ruin - Recur equipment
How has Alhammarret's Archive been working for you? Given you don't have more than 20% of your deck as draw and your commander isn't related to draw, do you find it not pulling it's weight sometimes? Same thing with lifegain aspect.
Oblivion Stone > Plague wing - Oblivion stone while more symmetrical, is cheaper to cast, can be cast earlier and activated alter and most importantly, hits artifacts and enchantments which is black's biggest weakness.
At the risk of being out of budget, Imp's Mischief - "Counters" counterspells and redirects targeted removal, draw and extra turns. Given you're a voltron deck, people are always going to target your commander. It's nice to also have the ability to bluff (and interact on the stack).
