Much fnm testing —Dec. 23, 2014
After much fnm testing, I'm a big fan of how this is playing. Crippling Chill is an all star and gives me huge tempo advantages, especially vs. ramp decks, as I can tap a Voyaging Satyr for 2 turns and really clutter their mana. I'm probably not going to change much until fate reforged drops, in which I will absolutely be getting crux of fate.

I, personally, would not run Master of the Feast. That is counterintuitive to your strategy as you want gain card advantage and make your opponent run out of cards not give them more. I would run more Prognostic Sphinx or Sagu Mauler especially with the rise of Mardu and their use of Crackling Doom

Sorry for the second comment, but also I would replace Crippling Chill with Courser of Kruphix for the lifegain and it does keep early attacks away.

LMCDaSniper - add all the comments you like! I'm not terribly happy with the Master of the Feast in that slot, I think you're right. I am testing with the big tempo gain that Crippling Chill gives me, and will report back. Courser of Kruphix would never be a bad addition though I think.
ToastyWaffle - thanks for the kind words and up vote. Bow of Nylea also really helps with all of the burn and aggro matchups.

I like how you are running Dissipate to counter against Whip of Erebos and other graveyard benefits like Delve. I may want to swap out my Dissolve for them. Also, decent synergy from the third ability of Bow of Nylea to help you out from your own Sultai Ascendancy. +1!
