+1 for a sweet deck!

Just one thing - Knollspine Dragon says "you may discard your hand and draw cards equal to the damage dealt to target opponent this turn". I don't believe a single Dragon's Approach will draw you 9 cards. Sure, each opponent takes 3 but you have to pick a single person and count their damage when triggering Knollspine's effect. Of course if there's a Fiery Emancipation then yeah everyone takes 9.

If you want to splash I think removing blue and running green to run Heroic Intervention or Veil of Summer in the sideboard would be better because you could play fast mana dorks like Birds of Paradise which would help you ramp and solve some of the problems you have in your mana base. And could even support a copy of The Great Henge lol. Or 1x Knollspine Dragon for a budget-ier version.

The Stadium basically gives all your creatures poisonous 1 , kinda. For EDH, I find it neat that it plays to white's strengths since it's good at both pillowfort, evasion, and going wide.

Cogwork Archivist: Pretty funny flavor text there, but the MV and power is unfortunate for Grenzo, Dungeon Warden

Conspiracy Theorist: It's not quite Falkenrath Gorger for everything (sorry Anje!), but this is pretty solid mono-red card advantage

Approach of the Dragon: Kinda wish this fetched from your hand as well. Oh well. Discard the other four so that you don't have to spend 15 mana before you can get your Trogdor out. Knollspine Dragon seems pretty nice to keep going. Tribal+Spellslinger Niv-Mizzet, Parun ?

(Really minor but kinda disappointing that the Fractal tokens don't have a more abstract appearance)

Significant improvements with some old cards and some new cards

• Bloodgift Demon -> Sandstone Oracle
• Syphon Mind -> Knollspine Dragon
• Demonlord Belzenlok -> Valakut Awakening  ^Flip
• Cathartic Reunion -> Varragoth, Bloodsky Sire
• Magmatic Insight -> Nullpriest of Oblivion
• Tormenting Voice -> Burning-Rune Demon
• Maga, Traitor to Mortals -> Deflecting Swat
• Sword of Feast and Famine -> Hypnotic Specter
• Swiftfoot Boots -> Abrade
• Mind Twist -> Myojin of Night's Reach
• Geode Golem -> Tibalt's Trickery
• Command Beacon -> Mountain
• Swamp -> Mountain
• Swamp -> Blightstep Pathway  ^Flip

Overall, the changes are a reduction of rummaging in favor of tutors and enablers, switching around the protection to instant-speed responses, and addition of Myojin of Night's Reach , which is a wincon.
