Went 3-1 at Gameday.
Tested against my buddies USA Control and it handled it without a problem, slowly becoming my favorite deck I've built.
What ya'll think?
I really like this deck I have been looking at running something like it. But why no {Snapcaster Mage}?

I traded off my snappies preparing for M14 rotation, and with {Whispering Madness} & {Notion Thief} I really don't have a problem finding the answers I need, and before early game snappie ended up being a 25 dollar chump blocker. {Shambleshark} gets pumped from each creature I cast and has proven to put the beats in for me early.
Should add in a few {Nivmagus Elemental} with all those instants he could be another quick pump... Especially against control if they decide to counter one of your instants... Exile instead and get the +2/+2 counters... Just a thought

He really doesn't quite mesh with the deck, I like bring able to play creatures at the EoT, allows me to counter or play around what they are playing.
what did you loose to and why?
what did you beat?
what would you say are the 4 weakest cards in your deck? (a playset counts as the 4)

I lost to Mono Green Aggro with predator ooze, game 2 couldn't get a tragic slip to save me, and both games he played ooze turn 2 & 2 strangleroot geists on turn 3. He had awesome draws.
Beat Bant control 2-0, Bant Auras 2-1, & a USA Control 2-0.
And I really didn't feel like I had any dead cards in hand, everything served a purpose to me.
I did have a Vraska in hand against the Bant Auras when I was stuck on 4 lands but still pulled the win off.
This sounds really fun.
this deck looks awesome and fun to play and I'm thinking about building it

It's the 1st flash deck I've built and is a blast to play, surprisingly competitive.
Determining if I should try {Plasm Capture} I'm thinking a good call since everything is mainly instant speed.

The walkers seem fairly out of place honestly. Side against decks that have trouble with them makes sense. {far // away} works well on ooze.

I like Gurruk in here for the 3 damage ping, and the others are just another control aspect bit I agree with what your saying, and I'm gonna find a place to add {Far // Away} thank you for your thoughts.
Kaleo is right about the walkers. I would take out jace, tamiyo, and vraska for 3 {Far // Away} but keep the garruk.
I just bumped my BUG flash deck which went 4-0 at my fnm beat UWR flash, junk, mono black heartless and 5 color omnidoor
Went 4-0 tonight, only lost one game tonight against Junk Reanimater game 1.
Packed:
{Possibility Storm}
{Dragonshift}
{Whispering Madness}
{Biomass Mutation}
Not very happy bout the packs :(
Updated, dropped Jace for another Vraska.
Using him in my Grixis deck.
Have you tested this against any Gruul aggro or naya aggro decks. They seem to be your worse match ups I think.

Yes, I side out Notion Thief and Whispering Madness combo and bring in most of my destroy sideboard cards, 70% of the time I lose game one to aggro but finish the last 2 games easy, and my LGS is mainly control players, we have one guy that runs RDW every week but that's about it.
Deck list updated.
I've decided this will be the deck I take to the IQ here in Kansas August 3rd.
Need help reworking the sideboard.
Going to add {Doom Blade} but not sure what I should replace with it and what else to add from M14.
{Yeva, Nature's Herald} in the sideboard maybe?
I think your build is very nice. Though personally I would drop the {Dimir Charm} from the board and put {Skylasher} in their place. I would try {Putrefy} in main. That or {Garruk, Primal Hunter} as a 1 or 2 of. He is a real beat to control decks.

Ya Dimir Charm crushes aggro but I feel like I already have quite a bit removale in the board, I already run Lasher in the main and only have 3 :/ don't like Primal Hunter too much.
But do like Putefy idea thank you.
Also thinking of Far//Away
