Land destruction help

hello everyone, can anyone give me a hand with my land destruction deck? i would like to keep in the modern format or maybe even standard, and if at all possible bring it down to 60 cards.
The main focus is to get Acidic Slime to bounce and trigger its enter the battle field ability by using Roaring Primadox , Cloud Shift and Ghostly Flicker . the problems im having lay with my inability to protect my key creatures from kill spells and counter magic; the kill spells dont worry me to much as i can bounce my creatures with cloud shift or ghostly flicker, but the counter magic is a problem. also fast aggro decks will out pace me fairly quickly, and i need to find a way to deal with that as well, by A. adding burn spells or B. speeding up the deck some how. Supreme Verdict , Sphinx's Revelation and Azorius Charm come to mined, but im hesitant to put Supreme Verdict in as it will kill off my combo and is one of the kill spells im trying to protect myself from.
any help/insight would be awesome. ive had this deck sitting in the back of my head for a bit and im just now trying to get it together.
Ghost Quarter also lets you destroy land. If you splash black Polluted Dead is a nice 2 for 1 card that my friend uses in his Mono Black land destruction deck with effectiveness lol

thank you for linking my deck.
i wanted to splash in black for polluted dead and lingering sous but i dont know how i would make it work. i would have to take out another color in exchange and i dont think its worth it.
ghost quarter could work well, i am iffy on them grabbing another land though. ill keep it in mined, thank you for the suggestions

You can use Restoration Angel to bounce your Acidic slimes and anything else when they would try to burn down or hurt your creatures.

Imo Restoration Angel is better than Roaring Primadox too, the cost is the same (just white instead of green) and its a 3/4 flyer with flash so you can cast it whenever you need it.

true, i like to bounce Bond Beetle with primadox to put counters on Invisible Stalker . however its only a small combo. what about cutting primadox down to one main and one side, or would it not be worth fielding at that point?
