Not so much interested in competitive but I think the addition of Nykthos and Spirit of the Labyrinth give it some potential. Just trying to brainstorm ideas. Humility and Rest in Peace probably belong in there somewhere too now that I think of it.
The problem with this is that it requires 2 mana plus nykthos to actually generate mana. Multiple leylines into sanctum then nykthos could be amazing. But that is clearly magical Xmas land territory.

I actually have thought about a singleton nykthos in traditional enchantress shells as a green serra's sanctum of sorts as the deck is predominantly green/the white mana from sanctum can't necessarily be used up in one turn. Haven't tested it though.
There is a really gimmicky deck called "attack of the leylines" or something. It aims to drop 5 leylines of turn zero and go serra's sanctum, opalescence, swing for 20 on turn 1. Deck is wildly inconsistent though for obvious reasons although it can be hilarious when you open with leyline of the void against dredge game 1 or leyline of sanctity against discard game 1 to get your opponent.

"Yawgmoth," Freyalise whispered as she set the bomb, "now you will pay for your treachery."
I did playtest a version with 12 Leylines and 4 Serum Powder, 4 Gitaxian Probe, 4 Street Wraith last night and it was still incredibly inconsistent. Back to the drawing board.
Thanks for reporting these results. I actually gave this a try a few years ago with the same conclusion. There is discussion on the Leyline deck every few years. I don't know of anyone making it ultimately work though.
