I would suggest an option that includes {B} and {G}, with {R} as a possible third color.

{W} isn't great. Mageta the Lion is a repeatable board wipe, and the other two I would consider are Avenger en-Dal and Devout Witness as targeted removal options.

{U} has a couple of interesting control options. Waterfront Bouncer, Trickster Mage, and maybe Alexi, Zephyr Mage are passable tempo options, Stronghold Biologist and Stronghold Machinist are more color-heavy, and Dreamscape Artist hits color fixing and ramp, unusual for blue.

{B} Spellshapers are generally mana-heavy, but Undertaker gives you a lot of freedom in what you discard, allowing you to switch cards in your hand and graveyard as needed. Notorious Assassin and Greel, Mind Raker are further control options.

{R} offers mostly burn and evasion. Seismic Mage is repeatable land destruction, and Hammer Mage eats artifacts.

{G} is, as always, the best at color fixing, with Greenseeker, Harvest Mage, and Silverglade Pathfinder. Rushwood Herbalist and Dawnstrider protect your creatures, and Jolrael, Empress of Beasts works well with the red options.

I like that suggestion. Ill give it a try. As far as 1 mana creatures as discard outlets theres a few nice options:

Harvest Mage.

Greenseeker.

Cryptbreaker.

Llanowar Mentor.

Putrid Imp.

Ruthless Sniper- well not technically a discard outlet but can be abused with heavy discard/cycling

I think of all these, the imp is the most efficient.
