Valkyrie Alarm - Extended Idea?

Okay, so I was reading through forums and thought of this combo, I believe it would be a weak form of the deck, but still worth talking about because it might be fun:
Adarkar Valkyrie
Intruder Alarm
Imperious Perfect is a much better addition, but just think of all the fun wins you could pull with this combo:
-
Mogg Fantastic
-
Spiketail Hatchling
to lock your opponent down
-
Bottle Gnomes
-
Basal Sliver
-
Bile Urchin
-
Blood Pet

I think that it is a viable combo. However I think that the awesomness of Blue / Green wins out as best combo.
Imperious Perfect
and
Sprout Swarm
seem to have more potential.
However you in the same deck...you could go with the
Enduring Renewal
/
Wild Cantor
/
Grapeshot
combo. everything is in color. It would give you more reach I think in case your combo fails to come online. Just a thought.

The only way that I can really explain this is by using these decks as examples.
The Standard
Revillark
deck is basically a Blue White Control deck that can win out of no where. The deck doesn't need [card}Revillark[/card] to win...but it has the potential to use it.
The Extended Intruding Elves deck combos off several redundant sources that can go infinite with
Intruder Alarm
in play. It doesn't need
Intruder Alarm
to win though because it is able to swarm the opponent before they can react.
The reason that I use these decks as examples is because they take a combo and fit it into a deck that can win without it. The deck you have seems very reliant on
Intruder Alarm
to work at all. If you could twist and tweak the deck to be sufficient without the combo...while still having the combo present...I think that the deck would be drastically more successful.

Embermage augur or scorched rusalka would be nice if you want to go burn
or jaya ballard, discard strong card, you get the drift.
