Tanx for the critic on the deck updated it a bit more to what i decided on playing with please see the update section. Please let me know if there is something you think shouldn't be here but is or visa versa

Water Servant is AEtherling minus the abilities that make it good. AEtherling is only 5 bucks a peice at the most. Last time i checked anyway. Card advantage is also a huge issue in this deck when i playtested it. Personally, I would cut 3x Water Servant, 3x Simic Manipulator (Evolve works best with a large amount of creaures that get steadily bigger) and 2x Voidwalk for 4x Opportunity and 3x Syncopate or another counter. Or maybe up the Mizzium Skins to protect your creatures.

Trying to get more AEtherling 's but they are hard to find for me for some reason, the things I'm struggling with is hexproof but 2x Glaring Spotlight s will fix that. I Know what you mean with the card advantage but Think Twice is out Syncopate might not be a bad idea though ....

nice, i would cut a few manipulators, its not really dependable all the time. Maybe try some planes walkers if you can. like jace memory adept or jace archetect of thought

I'd drop Nightveil Specter . Unless your opponent has blue in their deck, you won't be able to play anything it exiles and it will be all too rare to have both it and Thespian's Stage out at the same time.. Simic Manipulator is ok, but he's much better in decks that you can move 1/1 counters around. Voidwalk is fairly useless in here as well, nothing with ETB effects to bounce... Also, not nearly enough instant spells to run Elite Arcanist . Over all, you're missing synergy and an over all direction for the deck. Choose control or creature agro or w/e, but stick w/ it instead of running a little of everything and your deck will run a whole lot smoother.

ps. Trying to stay away from planes walkers to save some cash. See what you mean with the lack of spells and lack of creatures for both Elite Arcanist and Simic Manipulator respectively will try and fix that. Saljen I agree the Nightveil Specter doesn't always allow me to play the spells that it gets from me but playing with it i've seen it is quite a nuance to the enemy because it takes their cards and shove it in their faces plus it is one of the few flying I have in my deck. Not that I would easily block with it...
