the deck or the name?

Do I need to explain how its played before someone can give advice on how to improve it?

Both. Both are perfect.

Both. Both are perfect.

....so this is pro-tour competitive?

whoa... I meant as in this would be really fun to play, I'm honestly not sure how well it would hold up in competitive play, best way would be to try it out though!

Lol. Got pinged for hoping to play in the pro-tour one day. That's funny considering I'm sure there are millions of others wishing the same thing. Possibly even the pinger too.
I posted this on here hoping for advice on the matter. But I guess this must be too new or too weird to even know

Edit: either that or the pinger wants to take this to competitive tournaments and take credit for the deck. Go ahead, I wouldn't have posted this here if I wanted to keep the deck idea all to myself anyway

I would take out {Strionic Resonater} and replace it with {Isochron Sceptor}. I also feel that {Jace's Mindseeker} and {Dungeon Geists} have too high CMC to be competitive. I'd also put {Judge's Familiar} in the sideboard rather than main. Seems like a good start though!

I would disagree, I think dungeon geists has plenty of competitive potential. 2BB isn't that high of a cmc for what he does

I think he would be easily removed. I look at these decks with the competitive level decks that Noah and I play in mind. A 4CMC for something that can be immediately taken out by a {Lightning Bolt} seems mediocre at best.

Would the Geist be playable if I threw in {favorable winds}? An the familiar is pretty decent if you wait to play it till turn 2. You can have it on the field, and a burn spell in your hand, and have an awnser for anything your opponent throws at you

Uhm... Really? you're playing blue already if you have the geists, a quick counter solves the lightning bolt. Hello {force of will} for example. Or even {mask of avacyn}

I've never seen either of those cards in a modern deck. FoW is not even legal in the format. Do you play modern?

That's why force was just an example of an effect.

I'm still curious as to whether you play modern. As someone who plays at a competitive level, I don't think this deck is fast enough or good enough and was trying to offer some advice.

and I'm considering your advice

I had {cloud fin raptor} in here, but took it out. Also considering Kiki jiki

I'm replacing the resonator with {favorable winds} the one drop with {cloud fin raptor} and the two drop with {sea coast drake}

Edit: wow, someone doesn't like that change. Ok, I'll put the changes in my sideboard than
