Trying for a creature heavy deck that is unrelenting. Lots of sacrifice mechanics with low cc and a few interesting interactions. This deck probably needs lots of love to get somewhere useful, but figured this would be a decent start. Question and comments welcome. I'll make a more comprehensive description once I figure out the best synergies with this deck.

Things that seem like possible strategies:

Abusing mechanics when Vedalken Orrery is in play

Getting value from mana sacrifice creatures like Blood Vassal when Heartless Summoning is in play, though that seems to only be able to work for instants

May need to increase the instants vs sorcery speed cards to leverage the ability to play on other turns

How do I get more flash mechanics to leverage Liesa's ability

Using abilities like Peacekeeper to maximize utility

Synergy with evoke cards like Shriekmaw

How to cover all bases with threat removal that synergizes with Liesa's ability

Any other thoughts would be helpful in understanding the possibilities with this deck. I have an ETB recursion deck already with The Evil Dead II so I don't want these to be similar. The idea is to have small creatures that can become major threats by permanent buffs and respond to threats in play when needed at any time. Then coming back into play for cheap cc cost. A simple 1/1 late game creature could be a 10/10 with enough enchantments and buffs in play.
