Flicker-centered EDH-Deck

Deviation of the first Commander Deck I made myself, based on the Phantom Premonition-Preconstructed Deck (You probably won't recognize it much anymore)

Specifically looking for help to improve Decks resilliance against cards like Torpor Orb and Hushwing Gryff, for example by adding cards that profit from flicker without ETBs (like the Commander Merieke Ri Berit, Athreos, Shroud-Veiled, Wall of Stolen Identity or Evil Twin)

More Sac outlet and more Necro?
