Dragon (or Slime?) Spiral (Modern MTG Deck)

The goal here is to get Dragon's Approach and either Alrund's Epiphany or Rise of the Eldrazi onto Spellweaver Helix. This lets you copy the extra turn spell whenever you cast an Approach. I'm also considering Slime Against Humanity for the blockers, but that would take a big restructure, since it's built around support spells like Thrilling Discovery right now. The Slimes would provide a level of defense that this deck needs. Right now, the main interaction is a handful of Force of Negations and Lightning Bolts.

I'm at the minimum number of lands and Approaches that I feel comfortable with right now, so I'm working on the right proportions of support and interaction. This is a tough build--if you cast Helix, you need to be able to either protect it with FoNegation or immediately follow up with an Approach to start chaining turns. Otherwise, it's a sitting duck. T3 Urza can go into T4 Helix + Approach.

Land base to be adjusted later.

T1 setup or control, T2 setup or control, T3-T4 Helix + Force -> Approach or Urza -> Helix + Approach

What's the minimum number of Approaches and lands needed? Ratio of setup to interaction.
