 {U} {B} {G}Gushing Dreadnought {U} {B} {G}

I recently tinkered with the idea to unite both Gush and Phyrexian Dreadought (=Stifleable due to its recent errata) 
Goldfishing taught me that the deck might need a bit more consistency - any ideas?!

4 phyrexian dreadnought
4 stifle
1 trickbind
4 force of will
4 daze
4 gush
2 merchant scroll
4 brainstorm
1 ancestral recall
1 Time Walk
1 regrowth
2 exploration
1 fastbond
1 mox jet
1 mox emerald
1 Mox Sapphire
1 lotus petal
3 duress
1 demonic tutor
1 vampiric tutor

LAND
4 Flooded Strand
4 polluted delta
4 underground sea
3 tropical island
1 Strip Mine
1 academy ruins
1 island

SB:
In process...

Well, my my first advice would be to fit in Illusionary Masks. That should increase the consistency of dropping Dreadnaughts quite a bit and especially give you the option to get a second down if the first gets somehow dealt with.

Exploration is bad in Gro-style decks, just a waste of space for what it does.

Why would you run 22 manasources in a Gro-style deck?^^

And as a more general hint, you might be interested to look at Alessandro Chiuci's MaskNaught lists from the 2003 GAT-era, which also aimed to abuse Dread in a Gro-frame. At least one of the Jan-June 2003 Dülmen T8s at morphling.de contains his list. 

Edit: Where the hell are Yawgmoth's Will and Black Lotus?^^
Academy Ruins over LoA also seems sketchy, especially without Masks.

I’d agree with Mon, goblin chief 100%. I would to run mask as a 3 or 4 of with a full set of  moxen as well as running thirst for knowledge over gush(despite this being GUSHING dreadnought), which is just sub optimal and doesn’t offer any real synergy. Chalice at one eats this thing alive; I’d opt to splash red instead of green for SB options like rack and ruin
