I'm not a fan of Spikeshot Elder, but that could just be me. Invisible Stalker  might not be a bad choice. Hexproof + Unblockable + Pike is kind of a pain to deal with. Rest looks pretty solid. Do you really need 4 Volt Charges though? You're only proliferating on shrine. Maybe cut 2 for more Vapor snag or incenerate?

spikeshot is kind of the whole point of the deck to burn for the damage with his effect while a pike is on him. invisible stalker is VERY good as well.

I like it. Spikeshot Pike is a nice touch.
I don't rate the Volt Charge and shrine stuff. I'd go -4 charge, -3 shrine, +3 Brimstone Volley, +1 Consecrated Sphinx or Moltensteel Dragon, +2 Vapor Snag.
You need a few more lands too, so is cut the Incinerates.
Try Thought Scour over Gitaxian Probe.

It's really not even about giving niche cards to black.
It should be about giving black cards to Niche.

I like the concept, but it seems a little too cute. Chances are they just ping Elder when it's time to equip him. Also, when compared to the U/W version, you lose access to Geist and Haunt for a worse manabase and less threatening beaters. If you choose to stay with this build, however, I would recommend looking at Faithless Looting  over Probe. Also, you might want to take a look at Thought Scour  and Desperate Ravings  . They would really help you out-clock original Pike Delver builds.
