K-Run would be proud.

However, the deck is fundamentally flawed.  It plays like 20 disruption and a draw engine that is also a combo, but is incapable of playing the beatdown role in a threatening way.  It's a deck full of delaying tactics and a weak win plan (multiple unprotected turns).

Isochron Scepter...?  With 4 Orim's Chant and 4 Abeyance, surely...  Abeyance on a stick is a mean draw engine.

The Cherry Parfait list in the thread above seems less underpowered.  While you give up some hate against Oath, you gain overall brokeness.  I can't see running the 8 time walk, mono-white version over this...Chalice of the Void also a maindeck consideration.
