Invisble Stalker exalted, thoughts?

Reasoning:

Utility Land:

Cathedral of War is in purely for the exalted trigger and helps for an extra colourless mana towards an Entreat the Angels and general casting

Vault of the Archangel is in for the life gain off a massively exalted Invisible Stalker

Moorland Haunt is in for the extra exalted trigger off the Sublime Archangel

Creatures:

Duty-Bound Dead is a great blocker, especially with the Regen ability, and since exalted stacks when Sublime Archangel enters the battlefield, it gives +2/+2 to a lone attacking Invisible Stalker

Knight of Glory and Knight of Infamy are both in mainboard (rather than sideboard) so I'm not caught out playing Selesnya or Rakdos decks and not having the right Knight in, it's also an extra exalted trigger

Nefarox, Overlord of Grixis is in for the one off alt win con bomb, with Sublime Archangel on field and Lingering Souls tokens, it becomes a huge attacker with the sac ability, giving board advantage

Silverblade Paladin is more of a maybeboard card, but to soulbound it with an exalted Invisble Stalker makes a lethal blow

Sublime Archangel is self-explanatory in any exalted deck, it works incredibly well with the Lingering Souls and Sorin, Lord of Innistrad, giving a huge exalted trigger to any creature

Other Spells:

Artful Dodge If they have some annoying chump blockers, and I haven't hit the Invisble Stalker or any other evasive tactic yet, making any other creature unblockable gives me window for damage

Detention Sphere is in for any annoying permanents, Oblivion Ring is great but the fact that I can hit multiple permanents with this choice is far better, completely wrecking token decks or a mirror match

Lingering Souls is a key element in this deck, hitting multiple of these with flashback greatly improves the synergy of Sublime Archangel and makes a lethal Invisible Stalker

Murder I chose over things like Ultimate Price purely for the fact it can hit almost any creature, Olivia Voldaren can trample the token gen in this deck with her ping ability, murder solves that issue

Sorin, Lord of Innistrad has no bad ability, his emblem gives the additional damage I might need to finish a game, especially when multiple emblems are hit, his +1 feeds the Sublime Archangel each turn, making any lone attacking creature even more brutal

Sphinx's Revelation is probably the best bomb for crazy card advantage and can also save your life with the lifegain and maybe expose the chance of a comeback from a bad game

Think Twice gives a bit of extra draw early on in the game to help draw into the bombs or mana

Tribute to Hunger is amazing removal, especially against minimal creature decks, plus the life gain is a bit of extra stall and put's them in a bad position
