Not running fetch lands because the land works perfectly fine now without spending $120 on a playset of Tarn's.

Personally I like dispell better, mainly because it's really only in there to stop spells that disrupt the combo, therefore they need to be instants (flash in combo piece 1 EOT, then play other part on your turn)

Is spell snare really that amazing? The only thing I can think that it is amazing against is Jund (stops Bob and Goyf)

Yeah, it also stops basically everything in affinity other than memnites, thopters, and signal pests. It stops cranial plating, ravagers, vault skirge, steel overseer, and so on
