This is a really cool deck, and is very fun to play. Bazaar of Baghdad is the main engine of the deck, but it can function for quite a while without one. You basically want to just get the Bazaar up with Squee, Goblin Nabob or Life from the Loam. In order to do that, you use removal and countermagic to get the opponent under your thumb.
As posted over in another thread on which deck would you play if you played only 1, you are very vulnerable to turn 1 Leyline. Maybe running a singleton Repeal or Chain of Vapor, gives you reasonable outs to that. With all that Graveyard dumping it would be nice to get some sort of Noxious Revival in there if you need something back.
Everyone knows that good luck and good game are such insincere terms that any man who does not connect his right hook with the offender's jaw on the very utterance of such a phrase is no man I would consider as such.

Yeah, Chain of Vapor seems like the best out right now. Should I add it over an off-color Mox? I'm not too sure how needed the Revival is, though. What do you think?
The Revival is certainly not a key component, but it's essentially a no mana top deck tutor. I cannot take credit for this statement but it's very true in your deck - the Graveyard is simply a place to store your spells until you need to use them - and the Noxious will find you what you need. With that said, any card that takes away from the focus of your aggro deck is probably not needed - but there is always the temptation to try and fit in one more card.
This looks like it would want to run survival of the fittest.
Survival lets you gain massive CA with Squee, fish out all your rootwallas, put back your blightsteel, and play singleton 1 off hate bears. It also lets you get an engine without needing your land drop to be bazaar
If I were to build this I would probably go:
-2 Spell Pierce
-1 Ancient Grudge
-1 Lightning bolt
The deck can play the mana-denial game really well as well. Ancient Grudge and recurring Strip Mine/Wasteland make this work. Barbarian Ring can be an alternate wincondition paired with Life from the Loam as well, should your other cards not get you there.

Yep
i;m not really sure how/where you would fit it in but seems kinda cool with rootwalla
maybe could jam in welder/vault/key/memory jar too though its prolly moving the shape of the deck too much

If I were to build this I would probably go:
-2 Spell Pierce
-1 Ancient Grudge
-1 Lightning bolt
+1 Hurkyls recall
+1 Trygon predator
+1 Flusterstorm
+1 Survival
Or something like that.
