Looking for a second opinion on two cards for my Mizzix deck

I just saw Muddle the Mixture and it looked like it would be good in my The Immaculate Mizzix's Experiment, but the only thing I could see that I could potentially cut is Spell Burst . So, what do you guys think Spell Burst or Muddle the Mixture?
I also just cut Thought Vessel for Helm of Awakening , what do you guys think of this cut?

Just my opinion, but I'd recommend against both moves.
Spell Burst > Muddle. It's so much more flexible. Just as a threat it's great -- opponents know you have an answer in your hand, can probably match any CMC value for X (due to Miz making the spell cheaper), and you'll have it back in your hand after you cast it! So good. Muddle is a one-time counter or a one-time tutor. Less good.
You absolutely do not want Helm of Awakening in this deck. Your main advantage is making your spells cheaper - if you make their spells cheaper too, you're losing advantage. If anything, Miz wants Sphere of Resistance effects to exaggerate her advantage.

I like spell burst, as it has buy back. Also I don't like helm of awakening as it helps the opponents also.
I like middle the mixture, as it can grab answers when needed, if the deck is built for it.
I like thought vessel, as it gives you no Max hand size.
Just my thoughts on the cards individually, but prob not much help.
