Soo.. If I put something from these cards.. What cards do you think should i put out??

I'm guessing this is for casual rather than competitive play, and that's fine. I see that there isn't much of a central theme, which can be important. You have a lot of evasive-style tactics like flying and unblockable, as well as defenders, so maybe this could be a good place for Planeswalkers or Cipher cards. Jace Beleren could be good here, or Jace, Memory Adept . You could also use Last Thoughts /Hidden Strings /Hands of Binding . Deathcult Rogue could replace Wind Drake , as it's better IMO. I wouldn't mainboard Dispel , switching that with Divination for some draws might be good.
Hope I could help!

OH, and I saw this was for mono blue control.
For control, you want wayyyy less creatures, and more spells to stop your opponent.
Maybe a late game win-con like AEtherling would be great. As well as spells like Counterspell , Opportunity , Dissipate , Dissolve .
There a lot of older counterspells and control spells that I don't know of, but are really good.
Planeswalkers like Jace, Architect of Thought should also be used.

First, this is the wrong forum. Moved to Deck Help.
Second, just put this all in a decklist using the deck builder. It's much easier to read that way.
