It's working pretty well. Liliana is a must, helped in so many games. I tried to fit Deathrite Shaman, but I don't know which cards to withdraw.
You can start with deed. It's in most cases one turn too slow and now when you run shaman, you have to hit 3+ cards to make CA.
While Lili being very strong against a lot of decks you aren't happy everytime you have to discard. She only makes CA with her ultimate or 2x sac. Not that fast imo, maybe I'll try something else in that 2 slots.
I wasn't happy with top. Against aggro it's also too slow and control is a great matchup anyway.
Don't underestimate therapies instead of hymns. With agent and strix you have all possibilities to get rid of the cards you fear atm. Hymn does this at random...
21 lands without acceleration is few in my eyes even if you want to play cc4 spells.
