Doran, the Wall Maker

Well I know Doran is very popular in standard right now but I wanted to build a fun deck for Legacy that uses Doran to make Walls SUPER UBER CRAZY AWESOME POWERFUL.
The Idea of thisd eck is to drop cards like greenseeker, Steel Wall, and Wall of Hope on turn 1 then continue building you defensive force keeping your opponent held back until you can kick out Doran. Once Doran hits the field your opponent will probably stop attacking since your walls will blow the crap out of them. So once they quit attacking start dropping Terror's and Soul Reaps to kill off creatures until eventually you Biorhythm your way to victory. Anyways heres the decklist, suggestions are welcome and appreciated.
Lands - 24
Murmuring Bosk
x4 (Mumuring Bosk just helps this deck so much since I can reveal Doran to make it untapped and it allows you to use it for 3 types of mana.)
Plains
x7 (General Issue Plains)
Swamp
x7 (General Issue Swamp)
Forest
x6 (General Issue Forest)
Creatures - 27
Doran, the Siege Tower
x4 (Doran is the core of this deck and makes the walls crazy powerful.)
Steel Wall
x3 (Stell Wall is a nice 0/4 wall for 1 and doesn't require specific mana, good 1 drop.)
Wall of Hope
x4 (Wall of Hope nets you some life early in the game.)
Ageless Sentinels
x3 (Ageless Sentinels can take over the battle when your opponent cannot take down your walls.)
Wall of Souls
x4 (Wall of Souls along with Wall of Hope gives you so much life advantage it's not even funny.)
Wall of Ice
x3 (Wall of Ice is a 0/7 Wall for 2G, what more do you want? with Doran out it's virtually 7/7.)
Crenellated Wall
x3 (This is one of my favorite walls since it basically gives one of my creatures +4/+4 if Doran is out.)
Greenseeker
x3 (Greenseeker helps me get specific lands if I'm not drawing them.)
Non-Creatures - 9
Terror
x3 (In the endgame when I'm trying to finish them off with Biorhythm, Terror helps accomplish that.)
Biorythm
x3 (Biorhythm works real nice in this deck since I get creature advantage very easily.
Soul Reap
x3 (Soul Reap is just an alteration of Terror and works nicely if I played a Terror earleir.)

Walls have defender. Also, you need further mana-fixing.

He knows that the Walls have Defender. He doesn't plan on attacking with them, he plans on using a strong defense to stall until he can attack with Doran and Ageless Sentinel and blow people away with Kill spells.
As for mana-fixing Ciberon, it may be useful to suggest some cards he can use in the deck.
I would suggest Vivid Lands, and maybe Bloom Tender to help get out Doran even faster. The great thing about walls is they tend to be cheap, so you just have to worry about that color fixing.
Overall this deck looks like a whole lot of fun to play!
