So the deck got a win today against my main deck (Teysa B/W Tokens). It managed to survive a Merciless Eviction (with 4 PWs out), a Council's Judgement, a Vindicate, and an Anguished Unmaking, plus several mass token board states.
Will is a house. His + slows down opponents, and led to massive problems for Teysa by shrinking cards like Sidisi, Undead Vizier and Hero of Bladehold into easily killable targets. His minus allowed the deck to quickly get back to full strength even after getting slammed by removal constantly.
The win actually came from Chandra, Bold Pyromancer. After Jace, Architect of Thought shrunk the enemy army to prevent lethal by just two damage, Will used his minus to draw, pulling Fact or Fiction and Inexorable Tide. Tide was cast, and Fact only cost U due to Seal of the Guildpact and Will's effect. The opponent gave the choice of Tamiyo, or four other cards. The deck chose Tamiyo, cast it for UU, proliferating Chandra and Rowan to full. Rowan ulted, followed by a double Chandra ult which dealt 20, and wiped Teysa's board. Teysa then lost 7 more life from her own Dark Prophecy and lost.
The deck has a lot of punch, and a surprising amount of resiliency.

You don't call "dying to removal" if the removal is more expensive in resources than the creature. If you have to spend BG (Abrupt Decay), or W + basic land (PtE) to remove a 1G, that is not "dying to removal". Strictly speaking Goyf dies to removal, but actually your removal is dying to Goyf.
All my games so far w/ the Twins have come down to casting Obliterate or Jokulhaups or both so much so that I'm strongly considering running Jaya Ballard as she facilitates that gameplan fantastically.
It definitely is the game ender of choice, especially in multiplayer. So far, that and PW Emblems are the win-cons.
