Out -- Porphyry Nodes
In -- Mirri's Guile

Nodes after testing more was far too hit or miss, and when it was hit it just wasn't strong enough. I think I've finally settled on Guile here as its always at least decent and keeps this an enchantment slot.

Hey, As I said I like this list. One thing that strikes me is Overburden, I've had bad experiences with it before. Particularly it's a non-bo with Winter Orb. Your opponents will be able to bounce a land to get an extra mana by playing a dork. If they bounce and tap Gaea's Cradle twice it's pretty depressing. I see you've got Kismet too, but without that Overburden is likely counter productive.

I also really liked Embargo as anti-creature tech. I used to run it in Teferi; probably good here too.

I'll test Embargo some time soonish. Right now I'm not displeased with Overburden and haven't run into the issue you described. It's been particularly nice as I've just started playing against some Najeela and its able to shut down a couple lines for them including Derevi and Nature's Will.
