Would you recommend this list in a meta with no tymna decks, but filled with stax & answer-heavy decks? I'm guessing some adjustments should be made but not sure where to start.

The stax pieces I find more often are Linvala, narset, ashiok, back to basics, grafdigger's cage, lavinia.

Why does this deck run scepter lines at all? It's more slot-intensive than to something like Power Artifact to get the same effect (infinite mana and infinite draws). Once you go infinite, Nexus or some LabMan effect seems just as good as a scepter loop. What am I missing?

So this deck has moved away from Dramatic Scepter to focus more on the Consultation lines? Also, what is Steal Enchantment in for?

I'm just curious why you didn't include a flash hulk line in this deck.

Voranim That would take up too many slots. To really use flash-hulk and not worry much about the combo getting turned off by drawing pieces, even the most compact package uses 8 or 9 cards, plus a bunch of tutors to make it possible to reliably have both flash and hulk in hand. even with this deck already having some of those cards, that's still some 10-ish cards to add to the deck, which would take away too much of the deck's current gameplan and make it fairly weak. At that point, it would be better as just an alternate take on Fish Hulk. Besides, not every deck needs to be a flash-hulk deck--let this one be it's own thing.

What do you think about Oakhame Adversary in this deck?

I am a bit puzzled at how you win the game against decks like storm. I understand all the value you get from Vial Smasher with a curiosity effect and other things like sygg. But how do you win?

khazii your main wincon is Oracle/Jace + Consult/Tainted Pact.

Hi, what do you mean about add kraum into the deck?

Could Firebrand Archer or Guttersnipe find a home here as they would be a better target for curiosity when casting a lot of spells because you will draw so many cards that you will not get into a situation where you have a hand full of lands. On that note, what about Burgeoning for the ability to use all the lands that I seem to find from curiosity effects?

I see how these small creatures will die to our own wipes but they seem to give a huge amount of card advantage especially since my play group has been removing Vial Smasher the Fierce so quickly now!

What's the secondary wincon if the first one gets dealt with? The redundancy of two labman effects and two Consuls? After those it's beatdown time?

So is the only way to win the Thassa Oracle combo? Have you considered running alternate win cons? If so what would u run?

Is this the most up to date version of the deck post Flash ban? I really want to build this, but I'm dealing with a lot of Thassa's Oracle in my meta.

I don't think this is being regularly updated, but there is not many other resources that I can see. CedhTV has a great storm build where Playing with Power has the most up to date 4 color control lists. Dramatic Reversal and Isochron Scepter is not as good of a back up as 2 Laboratory Maniac effects with two ways to exile your library. Personally, I want to give Nexus of Fate a shot because it could more or less be another lab man but at instant speed! Finale of Devastation is my favorite way to recur or tutor Thassa's Oracle. I've worked on variations of this deck so long that I feel like it deserves a better primer...
