Not sure I follow why you selected some of the cards you did, but the idea of a "defenseless" deck has been around for many, many years. Though there has not been any in recent years, back in the early 2000s, there were several players who piloted defenseless T1 2P decks to high finishes at major tournaments. I myself had a deck that included only one EC (whose only purpose was to start a side battle for my Heroes so I could draw faster) and a couple evil dominants, which I used to win T1 multi-player at 2004 and 2006 Nationals. (The T1 multi-player category has more often seen defenseless decks -- or decks with defenses only meant to draw faster and not necessarily block). 

One of the reasons a T1 2P defenseless deck was viable back then was because you used to be able to rescue your own Lost Souls with Son of God and New Jerusalem. This made it possible to "block" with a few of your good cards, and thereby stall the opponent who would otherwise be getting a free rescue any time you had a LS available.

Since the rule was changed with that, I don't think defenseless decks could be considered in the top tier of decks. That being said, it could be a fun strategy to attempt. Using tricks like Delivered/Burial Shroud along with cards like Jonah could serve to stall the opponent long enough to win (especially if you build the deck in such a way as to increase your odds of going first).

That will definitely add to the challenge! Edited as such.
