Voting against Debtors' Knell because we will have no creatures in our graveyard so we have to depend on our opponent(s). Plus its not a great card to cheat out.
I'm also voting against Opalescence because we won't have many enchantments out at a time so its not a great win condition and this makes it easy for our enchantments to die.
I'm voting for Decree of Silence because it is a great lock card when cheated out.
Orim's Chant has another vote against it because I feel we have much better options against aggro and this doesn't protect our combo that well.
I also like to imagine that he has a rotating torso (like a metallic graft that fuses his upper and lower body together), so he can spin all around, leveling everything within 20ft of him to rubble.
Voting out Debtors' Knell- no creatures- no good.
Voting out Orim's Chant- no recursion for it makes it weak
Voting out 1 Enduring Ideal- Decent alt win, but we don't need too many.

If there were no creatures for the knell, why would we be running 4 wraths, 4 stp, 2 ghostly prisons AND solitary confinement? This deck was definitely built to compete against an agro meta, where there would be plenty of creatures for the knell to snatch...
I can't vote againt Opalesnce but I can't also stress how horible this card is in this deck it needs to go.
Vote against Story Circle not needed with the ton of other creature control
Vote agianst Volition Reins we don't need to be stealing their stuff
Vote against Enduring Ideal goes against our combo and don't want to go epic
Vote against Fact or Fiction love it but don't want to be throwing stuff in the grave without anyway to get them back

A very good point. I would retract my vote aginst Debtors' Knell if I could.
Anyways the card that I feel needs to be removed the most is Opalescence.

Vote against story circle, I think it's one of the weakest cards left in the deck.
