I don't think you need this much mana ramp. You really don't have anything that is that high of a casting cost. I would keep the birds but drop the pilgrims and add in scavenging ooze or maybe Another utility spell. Swords might not be a bad choice. Ooze gives you graveyard hate needed to disrupt the control match-up. Plus ooze will trigger thune. Sword of light and shadow will bring back your dead creatures and gain you life...trigger.
You have 8 guildmages in there. I think that is why. No aberations? I would swap the tormented soul for invisible stalker too. 1/1 unblockable plus hexproof. once it is down no one is messing with it or your cyphers. Plus once cypher went off, there goes aberation :).
