    White Weenie - Deck Evaluation. Critic and ideas appreciated

    this is a casual highlander deck that is playing cards that are banned in many formats (but are a everyday part of this deck's metagame - skullclamp, sol ring, strip mine).

    i created this deck in an attempt to get a playable 60 card white weenie (yes i know regular highlanders are 100 cards) and i tried to focus mainly on red zone abilities of creatures with evasion, some mana denial (geddon, strip mine, wasteland) and a few tricky bastards (weathered wayfarer, mother of runes) as well as the strongest equipment available (regularly triggering the swords abilities due to evasion). i would greatly appreciate if somebody would come up with a way to change some of the cards or the manabase (might be too risky with 20 lands + sol ring + mox?).
    Any input is more than welcome as i put in a lot of effort to make this deck competitive (in a casual env obv) and i feel like there is little i can improve on my own.

    Thanks in advance for anybody putting in the effort to comment on this.

    I often make a Highlander deck as well just to use some of my older cards. I am surprised by the lack of Unmake, Crib Swap & Oblivion Ring as control elements? I like to have plenty of targeted removal. I would also add Emeria, the Sky Ruin to the lands. Personally I always use Auriok Champion as one of my creatures.
