The deck works perfectly fine as it is, because I have so much control over what I am about to draw. I will always have Cabal Coffers / Urborg / Liliana together if I want them, due to my black tutors and hand-altering.I use the Reliquary Tower in there because, if necessary, I can use Future Sight + Sensei's Divining Top + A -1 cost Artifact Reducer to draw my entire deck, pick the hand of the size I want, then shuffle the others back into my library with the Elixir of Immortality.Explorer's Scope is super-good, especially to get my tap-lands out.. since I can choose my top cards of the library so often. The Explorer's Scope triggers off the attack, not the damage. So I can just swing with a Darksteel Myr or similar.In practice, this deck gives me so much control over the top cards of my library (once it gets going. It is a slow deck..), that the problems you point out don't actually cause me trouble.Thanks for your comment though, it is appreciated.
