I spent most of the description talking about how bad this deck is, but it's *so bad* I'm going to do it again in the comments. - Maximus and Alba Zoa actively lose you games against Branded Bystial and Tearlaments. It took me 4 successful combos before I finally got it against a Spright opponent that it actually works against. - Doriado Gryphon by itself (without the Dogmatikas) is a pretty good pairing, because Gryphon prevents non-Linked monsters from activating their effects, and Doriado prevents inherent special summons (including Link summons), not once per turn. - This deck is a meme. If you decide to build this, do yourself a favor and don't.
Great combo idea, I think you could do much better however with a few changes. First instead of the Sangan and Umbramirage add from deck cards you chose, you could grab Mythic Water dragon (lvl 8) and Performance Hat Tricker (lvl 4) and I'll explain in just a second. Linking into spright Sprind then summon Hat Tricker. Then when Synchroing into herald you could instead synchro summon Cupid pitch, and increase its level to 6. Now special summon Mythic Water dragon while Hat Tricker is still on the field. Next Synchro cupid + Hat tricker (6+4) into Baronne. Cupid effect to add card to hand adding Nemeses Corridor to then summon it, you can then use it to either summon into Thunder Dragon Colossus or use it as link material with Mythic water dragon for I:P thus leaving Umbramirage on the field to not have your battle phase skipped. If making Colossus you are left with two level 8 monsters which can be turned into I:P for the Gryphon play or instead used to for an XYZ summon. XYZ with Umbramirage means it does not leave the field so you wont have your battle phase skipped as long as it stays on as XYZ material. So you could end up with an end board like: Baronne, Thunder Dragon Colossus, lvl 8 XYZ (battle phase kept) or Baronne, Knightmare Gryphon, Umbramirage (battle phase kept) or Baronne, Thunder dragon Colossus, Knightmare Gryphon (battle phase skipped). And of course Rusty chilling in the extra monster zone no matter what play you make. XYZ monsters you could summon: Number 23 Hope Harbinger (negate spell and monster effect, second effect to change attack target to protect Colossus from attacks) or Dingirsu (non-activated non-once per turn destruction protection of any card(s) so doesn't need to be linked with Gryphon to activate its effects, will protect all cards from a raigeki) The double floodgate Colossus Gryphon with Omni negate Baronne would be so good if the battle phase wasn't skipped. If you can somehow get an extender on the field to get I:P linked with out using Umbramirage that would definitely be the best end board. Baronne is so essential to negate things like Impermanence/Forbidden Chalice that negate your floodgates, or for things like evenly matched/other board wipes.
Thanks for the feedback, but I have a lot of things to say about this: First, I don't know if you've seen any of my other videos on this channel, but my goal is to do the most outlandish combos I can think of. In most of these videos, I don't start with a Tour Guide and think "what's the best board I can do," I start from the end board (e.g. I want to summon Doriado), then work backwards to figure out how to get there. Sometimes I pick up some bonuses along the way, like the Alba Zoa in this video. Like I mentioned in the description and my other comment, though (which I should probably pin), I'm well aware that this particular deck is hot garbage; I just thought it was funny, for a meme deck. Second, Umbramirage is fundamentally just a bad card, there's no reason to try and figure out how to avoid skipping the battle phase and whatnot, it's simply not worth it. The only reason I used it in this deck was to search Maximus, just because I needed to send a second Arc Light to the GY for the Alba Zoa search. If I weren't going for Alba Zoa, I wouldn't have been running Umbramirage in the first place (Doppel Warrior is generally a *much* better Isolde search target than Makani, if going for a Plaguespreader play. I've made several FTKs using the Plague + Doppel into Cupid Pitch combo already). I have a new video coming soon that's going to be much closer to being a "legit deck," if that's what you're looking for. I won't spoil the surprise, but it's way stronger than even the board you're suggesting.

You're combos are very fun! Love trying them out :)
