Warped Physique

Instant

Target creature gets +X/-X until end of turn, where X is the number of cards in your hand.

Entomb is just too good to not run. Phyrexian Dreadnought combo's well with Lazav, since when he copies the ETB doesn't trigger, and playing it but failing the ETB makes it go right to the yard to enable the combo. Invisible Stalker lets you give hexproof easily.

Going in another direction, Glimpse the Unthinkable and other mill cards provide a way to quickly stack your graveyard, while Phyrexian Reclamation and Recall let you recur the things you want back. If you're stacking your graveyard you might as well add in Living Death, type effects (Bonus points for All Hallow's Eve).

Tainted Strike gives Infect as another means of grabbing that 1 hit kill. Warped Physique can be either a pump spell or removal once you've gotten your graveyard full. Mortal Combat provides a fun alternative wincon, if you want.

Wonder and Filth both give you benefits just for being in your graveyard.

For protecting your graveyard, your best bet is probably just counterspells. Things like Silent Gravestone only work with non-targeted reanimation.

Oops. my mistake, I didn't see the Halimar Depths that was already there, I would recommend adding some more though.

With the aforementioned combo, and if you were willing to splash black, you could replace Wings of Velis Vel with a Warped Physique , allowing you to bump even more of their minions.

it does feel mana symbol rmana symbol b especially because the +1 feels like a cross between Daretti, Scrap Savant/Liliana, the Last Hope

i could see the balance of the +1 involving "you may discard a card, then upto one target creature gets -x/-x where x is the number of cards you discarded this turn. similar to Warped Physique

given the theme (assuming it stays mana symbol umana symbol b), the -2 feels a bit generic/jace based. It could be shifted towards an Unhinge style effect.

Some good suggestions above - cut all creatures, except 3 AEtherling, which are the chepest win conditions, so cut 4 creatures. Elixir and hedron archive are also unnecessary. Play at instant speed as often as possible - wrath effects and discard effects should be the only spells at sorcery speed you have. -2 duress, - 2 rising miasma, -2 divination, -2 read the bones. -3 reality shift and - 1 silumgar's command, as they are quite ineffective at their jobs. That would leave us with 18 cuts.

Add the following -

4 Think Twice - to draw cards
4 Mana Leak to counter stuff early on
2 Warped Physique to get rid of dudes cheaply
2 Jace's Ingenuity to draw more cards
2 Doom Blade to get rid of dudes efficiently
2 Tribute to Hunger when they have a single big dude and you need some life.
2 Crystal Ball to filter draws.
