Mockingbird

Creature — Bird Bard

Flying

You may have this enter the battlefield as a copy of any creature on the battlefield with converted mana cost/mana value less than or equal to the mana spent to cast this spell, except this is a Bird in addition to this creature's other types and has flying.

ITs been a while but you definitely need one drops. Like 8 of them. Spellstutter sprite with 1 drops on the play is an insane card, sprite without one drops is pretty dookie.

Idk how casual or competitive you want the deck to be but if you do want to make it stronger there are a decent number of easy cuts, like basically every 3-4 drop + oona besides scion of oona, vendilion clique, and mistbind clique. And to be honest the latter 2 have been power crept out a bit especially mistbind but they are def still playable in a more casual setting. Faerie tauntings and faerie trickery are pretty bad also. Cryptic is a bit high on the curve for faeries which typically aims to be a tempo deck with a lower land count than 24, instead of a control deck (also been power crept out of control though). We got actual factual Counterspell now. Also some removal would be good (Fatal Push, sheoldreds edict, shoot the sheriff, etc).

For one drops we got a decent amount now although none of them are crazy. they are more like a necessary evil. Sleep-Cursed Faerie, Flitterwing Nuisance. theres also Faerie Miscreant + Mockingbird package if you want. Theres also the ninjitsu Kaito and Bitterbloom Bearer as possible options

Well, I agree that additional dual lands are good, but Port Town is one of the worst. I'd suggest maybe 2x Cavern of Souls as you are heavy on spirits, and replace Port Town with 4x Seachrome Coast, and add 4x Adarkar Wastes. Probably 2x to 4x Hengegate Pathway  Flip would also be useful. I'd also add 2x Eiganjo, Seat of the Empire, 1x Otawara, Soaring City, and 2x Mutavault as your Supreme Phantom anthem will apply to an activated Mutavault because it is "all creature types."

I don't see any removal and that's needed in Pioneer. Probably 3x or 4x Get Lost would help. Probably 2x Sheltered by Ghosts would also be useful and would be great protection for your Spell Queller.

Honestly, I'd lose the 3x Lunarch Veteran  Flip, max out on Spell Queller and add 2x Mockingbird.

Just some thoughts-- hope this helps! +1 from me!

I would add that Curious Obsession is a good card, but I don't know that it is great in this deck. Try it out, but I could see cutting it to make room for the removal.
