Here's a list I've been tweaking for a few days now had a chance to play for a few Wins, still waiting on Trash for Treasure in the mail though. The list focuses on using Jaya's abilities to their fullest with things like Repercussion and Distorting Lens and seeks to win the game through other means such as Kozilek, Butcher of Truth, Mimic Vat abuse and Malignus. Theres a lot of good draw/filter power in abusing cards like Mycosynth Wellspring with Goblin Welder and Trading Post too that helps smooth out the plays in this color of poor draw capacities.
Squee seems like a good contender! However with Magma Phoenix and Basic Mountains, I'm not sure I can justify a slot for a card that essentially will only feed my General and serve little purpose otherwise as when building my 99 I tend to steer away from making the list overly reliant on the General.
You know having considered him more, and seeing how much mileage I get out of Kher Keep chump blocking for me, Squee, Goblin Nabob really seems like a good addition.
I've removed Trash for Treasure and added in Squee. He earned a spot on the front page next to Jaya as well!
