Brand new deck Need some help !

At first, sorry for my poor english

My main deck was Dr. Copypaste. I had RAfikfik because most of my stapples are in the bant colors, but i don't really like this commander (it requires particular situations i'm not comfortable with). So Derevii as just been created and i jumped on the occasion to build something fun and interesting by associating two principles i appreciate :

Fighting on the battlefield (Heavy tricks are welcome but i'm not really playing when i focus on a combo). Controlling the battlefield (what comes in, who's attacking, having responses)

As you see, Derevii is one of the most playable commander of the 2013 commander edition. I'm not sure i took the best way to build something intelligent with this guy but i wanted to bring something i developed with Talrand, Wizard of the Coast and Vendilion Clique : a little tribal synergy with Wizards.

I'll take the time to write a better description about the cards i have chosen and i still got to fill in my actual sideboard that contains other ideas i have to improve

Thx for reading this

(later)

I consider any deck "tribal" when one card or more in the deck needs to share a creature type to work enough so you can count on it to build around. In this deck i try to consider three types : wizards, humans and birds.

Patron Wizard and Azami, Lady of Scrolls works with Derevi, Empyrial Tactician and ten other Wizards.

Keeper of the Nine Gales and Seaside Haven works with Derevi, Empyrial Tactician again and three other Birds (it seems i have to improve this synergy or forget it but having the opportunity to use 100% of the type of my commander isn't so bad)

There are also 18 humans in the deck. I'm thinking about adding something around them but i take my time for that maybe you have an idea

Building around Derevi, Empyrial Tactician doesn't imply you're having double mana for each creature you control that damages the opponent you lose all your mana at the end of the phase. So it means paying some actions or playing instant. Don't hesitate to follow the updates, i'll be building this way

The three pacts works pretty well in the deck and Summoner's Pact allows me some few tricks with my green buddies Generally, there are eleven instant cards i can count on to recycle all the mana produced by untapped lands maybe i'll find some solutions in the level-up ability

(more description to come)

(later)

Derevii's now much better since i have removed some tribal principles. I discovered the french 1V1 list derevii's in third and fifth places just after Oloro, it's pretty interesting since it's also my main new opponent (soon the link).

Suggestions

Updates Add

Some more informations i want to add in the moment :

As my friend switch said — this deck is mostly involved in 1v1 situations. I mostly play against Garbage_Nauseam (1v1) and Drakes Everywhere.

I also updated the maybeboard. In fact, this deck is actually testing himself, so i'm still thinking about other synergies.
