Acquire Snapcaster Mage

Spell Crumple isn't necessary. It's worse than Hinder because I run Snapcaster Mage and Eternal Witness , and the redundancy is actually detrimental because it's a 3-drop.

Black Sun's Zenith is too slow and expensive to be an effective board wipe. I want to avoid almost all X spells because they tend to be inefficient. Blue Sun's Zenith is in here because it's a win condition and a decent utility card.

@Neemzor - Warleader's Helix falls right outside of the mana curve which intentionally peaks at 3. Higher mana costs impede iterative casting. Also, != Lightning Helix DISSAPOINT (ToT

Dissipate or another counterspell is essential for preventing stumbling blocks or hazardous obstacles to your plans. Liliana of the Veil , counter, exile. Murder , counter, exile. Overloaded Cyclonic Rift , counter, exile. It's like having an answer in your pocket.

Turn / Burn is an amazing card, which I am thinking about swapping to the main board for this deck. It also helps protect his holiness when the opposition gets froggy.

Snapcaster Mage is in the maybe zone. He does work for me in my other deck, but Reckoner and his Holiness do more.

Turn / Burn also seems like a sick card to play with. No Snapcaster Mage ?

I have a Kamigawa Kiki-Jiki, Mirror Breaker (28$ on mtgprice) up for trade. I am interested in your Snapcaster Mage (24$) but It doesn't seem you have anything small enough to cover the difference in price. Do you think we can make the trade work out somehow?

Hi! I am interested in 2x Jace, Architect of Thought , 1x Snapcaster Mage and 1x Pithing Needle ... My binder is not up yet but you can take a look at what I have in My stuff. Specifically, I was thinking I could offer a Voice of Resurgence .

Tamiyo is not actually from Innistrad (the plane). She's a Soratami, which means she's from Kamigawa. We may see a reprint or a revamp in the future.

Right now, Tamiyo, the Moon Sage holds some value for being a Standard planeswalker and also seeing play in some superfriends and control decks. Rotation will probably cause her to drop to $6 or $7, but she probably won't climb back up as easily or as quickly as cards like Snapcaster Mage . She may ultimately settle at $10, but I don't think she'll stay or see any prices above that.

Well, everything that rotates is gonna dip a bit because Standard players will pawn them off for Voice of Resurgence and such. Some cards, like Snapcaster Mage , will eventually see a rise in price again (Snap specifically is going to be Bob-tier). Because Geist doesn't see much play in eternal formats, save 1v1 EDH due to the new Legend rule, his price will probably float down to less than $10 before long.

First, I would suggest cutting some of the one ofs like Index and Inaction Injunction . Think Twice may be a better option. Also, you're going to need more removal. Right now, it doesn't look like your deck interacts much with other decks. Cards like Feeling of Dread and Oblivion Ring /Detention Sphere are good cards to run as they let you still play aggressively, while being able to slow down the decks that are more aggressive than you are. Cards like Beckon Apparition are better sideboard cards as you would use them mostly against decks that care about the graveyard, such as Izzet blitz which utilizes flashback, forms of Snapcaster Mage control decks, and any form of reanimator. I think Dimir Charm is a bit iffy in this deck. Azorius Charm would work wonders. It's a very versatile card, and all three modes are super relevant for this deck. Maybe one or two copies of Vault of the Archangel could be included. That card is absolutely sick in a lot of matchups. I believe you currently have more than enough black sources to support it. I would also consider cutting Curiosity , Amass the Components and Divination . I don't think they are quite strong enough draw cards for what looks like a more aggressive deck. As for the sideboard, Beckon Apparition is definitely good. One or two Negate s wouldn't be bad to combat control decks. Another creature may also be a good idea for control matchups to give you more bodies to speed up your aggressive strategy. Pithing Needle is never a bad option. Depending on your budget, Obzedat, Ghost Council is also a decent card. It could be main boardable, but he's definitely good against any deck that is slower than you because he gives you consistent lifegain and is pretty hard to beat. Blind Obedience is good against hasty decks, so if you see a lot of red decks in your meta, you could definitely include that. Rootborn Defenses is also sweet as it will let you survive Supreme Verdict and give you another dude. If you don't want to mainboard Oblivion Ring /Detention Sphere , it's definitely good to have them in your sideboard. You need to be able to beat planeswalkers. From my experience, Jace, Architect of Thought is nearly unbeatable for spirits, so having a way to get rid of him is of the utmost importance. I hope this helps.
