Well be ready to fight aggro, so I'd throw in Blind Obedience to slow it down seeing as Naya aggro is pretty big right now (at least, in my store it is).

Well if you don't know the meta, you can always use hate cards like Pithing Needle

I feel like the only place you're deck is really going to suffer, is against control matchups. So maybe throw a few counterspells into your side-board. Always good to have graveyard hate for the eventual reanimator deck too. Otherwise looks pretty solid.

@Cdawg44 will consider this but need to check my pool of card first to see if i own any of these since im not enterly sure.

@Schuesseled true but already have 2 of em in side atm and a 3th i only find it usefull if i need a turn 1 needle against Nephalia Drownyard decks. so it will be if i have space left.

@Wolfsage13 yeah ive noticed before it an uphill battle specially if they run Snapcaster Mage , plan atm was to use Slaughter Games to kill those counterspells. but ive ideed bin considering adding some of my own. what do you suggest? Dispel Syncopate or even Dissipate though i think tht is to heavy on the early blue.

Dispel + Negate seem like they would be the best fit. Dissipate pushes your mana a bit too far. Syncopate really shines if there's an early drop that you have trouble with if it resolves (geist of saint taft, zombies).
