Is it worth running blue in this Bant Blink deck?

So my only blue cards right now including sideboard are Mana Leak, Reflector Mage, and Coiling Oracle.

I'm not sure those cards are worth the extra expense with my landbase. Would you consider those cards too good to pass up? Or should I just go Selesnya?

Looking for a value-based midrange build.

Reflector Mage by itself is worth it in my opinion, Coiling Oracle also definitely can create a ton of value, though I think you also underestimate what else bant can provide, namely Spell Queller and Meddling Mage in the main, as well as possibly Mulldrifter and other things of the like.

Blue opens you up to Momentary Blink. The Flashback is very useful.

Or Saving Grasp, in case you fancy Snapcaster Mage...
