Quick question for gameday: what does one side in against aristocrats? Just tragic slip? Is there anything else that works? That's the one match up I'm worried about, other than really fast aggro decks.
Well... if you are aggro... Tragic Slip. Sever the Bloodline if you are control.
"If fetch lands are reprinted I really believe they will be in allied colors (aka Onslaught fetches). If the fetch lands are reprinted you better believe that we'll all be fetching up basics. This would lead me to believe that the set after THS may have a reprint as the temples can't be fetched but it's pure speculation." - posted 03/22/2014 proved correct during Khans spoiler season.
"The set releases for fall 2015 (Blood, Sweat and Tears) and fall 2016 (Lock, Stock and Barrel). One or both of those 2 blocks (I'm betting) are going to contain either Fetch reprints or (more likely) Filter reprints. Filter lands still need a reprint. They are getting pretty high up there and it's been longer than ZEN so it makes a little more sense that Filter lands would see print earlier that fetches." - posted 03/22/2014 proved incorrect about filters coming earlier than fetches, still pending on filters in Origins block.
The main thing is having Thundermaw in the brew and only two Olivia. I'm actually considering shredding the Sire main altogether for three Thundermaw and bringing both Sire out of the SB. Definitely only a one of for Sire in the main at most.
In relation to the SB - A Grafdigger's cage to diversify our Rites hate a little. I'm seeing several play ray of revelation rather than Abrupt Decay so they can pitch copies and since we often don't have many other decay targets.

Is barter in blood that effective? I feel like on turn 4 it'd just be better to drop a huntmaster or olivia.

looking to add a cavern of souls or two. How would you guys suggest I do so in the list without wrecking the extremely solid mana base?
Your removal seems to consist of a lot of 1-ofs.
I think you should consolidate a bit.
-1 dragonskull and a crag imo. Cavern+Sire is just.... sweet.
