Improving Historic Vorinclex Rock

Deck is Historic Bo1

Saw SaffronOlive do a Jund Superfriends standard deck with Vorinclex, Monstrous Raider . It looked super fun.

I went with a less combo finish and more of traditional Rock/Golgari value grind. So even if I don't have a Dream Devourer to power everything out, the deck still frequently win by just grinding it out. That said, fortelling Vorinclex into a turn 5 ultimate from Nissa, Who Shakes the World normally leads to a scoop

It's gotten my from bronze 3 to gold 1 so far with a 50ish percent win rate and am just looking to tighten it up. I know it's going to get tougher from here.

How can bring this deck to Compleation.

Specific questions:

Should I finish off the playset of Thoughtseize or should I grab more removal like Assassin's Trophy

I think that Ob Nixilis, the Hate-Twisted is not a great choice for a planeswalker. He is only in the deck because I did not have another planeswalker available. I have a mythic wildcard and was trying to figure out what my best option for the slot is.

I know the land base needs work, I'm dealing with a rare wildcard deficit.

Any other input welcome. Thank you in advance.

I have a similar deck except it is abzan. Abzan Planeswalkers. I think I would change the Ob Nixilis, the Hate-Twisted for Liliana, Dreadhorde General , and instead of adding more Assassin's Trophy , add Maelstrom Pulse . Let me know if that works.

I tried the Liliana and wow is it a difference. Feels so much better that Ob.

I haven't got the rates to do the Maelstrom Pulse yet.

I was thinking I could also use Sarulf, Realm Eater somewhere, but in not sure what I would remove for it.
