Throwing Doors at People

Back in the ISD/RTR standard I had a pet deck. The deck would play a bunch of gates and drop creatures with deathtouch (and High Priest of Penance) on the field, and use Hold the Gates to give them a large toughness so fair decks couldn't get through. Eventually, the deck would find a Crackling Perimeter and kill the opponent by throwing doors at them.

I am trying to port that deck to EDH. Basic ideas:

• the deck plays a billion tutors (gotta find them enchantments yo).
• In order to play enough gates, the deck is now a 5-color deck (the standard version was WBGr).
• Since we are playing 10 gates, might as well play Maze's End as an alternate wincon
• Door to Nothingness has been added to the deck as an alternate wincon that fits into the death-by-door theme.

This is also a somewhat budget list, since I suspect the deck to be quite bad and I don't want to spend a billion dollars on something like this. There are a few expensive cards, but I already own them. Please keep it in mind if you suggest cards.
