Ok let me preface this by saying that alternative cards will really lower the power level as there is a reason they are expensive.
Now, first off Wash Out is not Modern legal, so take those out. Also, you have 12 fetchland but only 4 lands you can find with these so we are going to readjust the mana base. We are going to use the 3 slots that Wash Out gave us and move that to lands for a total of 23. I would only run 8 fetches, 4 Polluted Delta and 4 Bloodstained Mires. 4 Watery Graves is fine. I would also drop the Drowned Catacombs as you can not fetch for them and we need basics in case Blood Moon. So since we have Phyrexian Obliterator we need 4 Swamps and to round out the basic lets just do 2 Islands. Add 2 Sunken Ruins just to help with filtering. Also, just in case I would run a single Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth to help with the quadruple black. So that is 21 lands. The last two can be any variaty of utility lands possibly? Or just add whatever U/B lands you want.
Now, I think you have too many sorcery speed spells. I get what you are trying to to do, but theoretically you are trying to flip your Thing in the Ice ASAP. Once you do that you wont need unblockable. I honestly say remove the Artful Dodge, and Distortion Strike. and add a mixture of Thoughtseize and/or Inquisition of Kozilek. Maybe a 2/2 split. I would also think of adding in Thought Scour for some extra card draw at instant speed.
I am ok with your instants.
As for your creatures, I have to ask, what is Phyrexian Revoker in here for for besides being a Horror? What will you be naming with him? I would be removing him honestly..... Actually scratch that, I would take out the Hunted Horror. If you play him and then your opponent Paths him, you just gave him 6 power for 1 mana. Yes I know you said over $30 was expensive, but there really is no replacing Snapcaster Mage in this. He is that good.
This is all I really have off the top of my head. https://deckbox.org/sets/1409894 This is what I have changed. I am two cards short since I am unsure of the last two lands.
