Tournament Leveler

I have never seen a leveler deck in tournament play (maybe for good reason) but the novelty has always interested me so I'd like to try and construct a decent one.

Here's the link to a deck I've put together, haven't tried it yet but am going to try it out at local FNM.

Thinking about contagion engine/clasp or inexorable tide instead of oblivion ring, but not sure how it will play out.

Any suggestions would be helpful, or insight if anyone has seen a leveler do well in standard.

the reason is that you're investing tons of mana into one card, and all that effort can be negated with one removal spell/effect.

ex: you play a Transcendent Master, level him up to max. That's 15 mana, presumably over a few turns. opponent casts Vapor Snag for 1.
