wow, forgot about O-ring, thanks.
Let me look into feeling of dread. This deck is very low on creatures, and i think porcelain is a solid addition to the deck.

adding moorland actually balances out that problem of low creature value. removed an extra plains and added 3 instead. Rest of edits are your suggestions.

you may try Angelic Destiny or Spirit Mantle so that Gideon's Lawkeeper can swing or block while tapping. :)

Edits:
removed seachrome coast, not that necessary to have dual lands in this deck.
added a plains and island, land count is down to 22
added 2 spirit mantles to the mainboard.

Side Note: people, look at the sideboard.

thats what this deck goes for. stall into rage mode, then swing with an unblocked, 25/25 avenger for the win.
