Updates and Testing —Nov. 30, 2014
So my local scene doesn't host any Modern tournaments, so I can only play against my friends. For a while the only decks I could play against were Dredgevine and Soul Sisters, but some of my friends are now building Affinity, Death & Taxes, U Tron, and Skred. So pretty soon (probably by January) I'll have matchup breakdowns for those. Also I'll be taking this to some PTQs once I finish the deck and get more fetches for it.
Another consideration would be adding Dryad Arbor and Cartel Aristocrat . The Dryad let's you pod to Viscera Seer and the aristocrat allows you to have a sac outlet in the 2 cmc slot.

I was actually planning to add in the Dryad Arbor , thanks for reminding me. I'm not sure how good Cartel Aristocrat is but I have some laying around, I'll try that out. Do you have a good suggestion for a replacement to Noble Hierarch for someone on a budget? I want more than 4 mana dorks.

That's hard to say unless you don't mind them in the 2 cmc slot. The 1 cmc slot doesn't happen to have any more dorks that produce multiple colors I'm aware of. But there is always Sylvan Caryatid

If you can't afford the Hierarchs, Avacyn's Pilgrim is the next best thing.

On lands, have you considered Treetop Village or possibly Stirring Wildwood or Spawning Pool ? :)

Wall of Roots is a better choice than the Sylvan Caryatid here. It can be used on the turn it enters and is a bigger blocker. Wild Nacatl can't kill Wall of Roots on turn 2, unlike Sylvan Caryatid . It also plays well with Chord of Calling
Gavony Township is useful for resetting your persist creatures if you've lost Melira or haven't got her out yet (the +1/+1 counters it drops cancel out the -1/-1 counters from persist).
Sun Titan can add all kinds of value to this deck, particularly in combination with Eternal Witness .

I'm not playing the Sylvan Caryatid , it was just an idea I passed around. I was planning on adding in Wall of Roots , I'm just not sure what to take out (not one of the manadorks). I might add in Sun Titan because I often find (in playtesting, with the current Voice-less and Chord-less deck) that I need a non-combo way to close out games. And I will get my hands on some Townships.

I'd suggest dropping one of your Murderous Redcap , the Shriekmaw (should be a sideboard option) and Orzhov Pontiff (sideboard, it's mostly good for the mirror only)
