A single copy of Wilt-Leaf Liege would be a delight to discard and can be tutored up instantly in response with EC.

I would consider playing Orzhov Pontiff over Zealous Persecution in the sideboard since Eladamri's Call give you virtually 5-6 copies of it.

@Dragaan I didn't include Dryad Arbor as I don't like the card. It has several merits and I have included it in the notable inclusions section, as I can see why you would want to play it.

@foxinsox I actually prefer Smiter since it can dual role against both Jund/Abzan Midrange as well as UW control and have included one in the sideboard. That being said, the deck is highly customizable and you could include Wilt-Leaf Liege if you wanted to.

@OOBS Zealous Persecution was included specifically because you would need to have Vivien, Champion of the Wilds to achieve the same effect with Pontiff. If the deck had Chord of Calling , it would come in over persecution.

I'm not big on the card myself, I just thought most of these types of decks included one. But I guess it loses quite a bit of it's impact in modern compared to legacy.

Have you considered a 1 of Azusa, Lost but Seeking ? Azusa/Ramunap/ Ghost Quarter is an alternate win con against decks light on basics and Azusa/Ramunap/ Horizon Canopy draws you 3 cards per turn.
