Might cut a {Thoughtseize} for an {Inquisition of Kozilek} since you're running snapcaster, and 4 life seems like a lot in sone situations.

combo is very stronk right now so you might want to up it to 4 force of wills , if I'm playing blue in legacy, I feel like 4 is just mandatory cause saying no is such a powerful tool.

Currently I have 3 fow, 2 pierce, 3 cards to make them discard, 4 things to exile dudes, I think I have enough combo protection. If anything, I'd add another karakas.

Karakas is rough because you have to straight draw it.

I would keep the Thoughtseize over the Inquisition. My thought is the matchups where Thoughtseize is needed life is irrelevant. 3 FoW is fine, 4 is probably better. The reason I saw this is you want to see this card in your opening hand against a mystery deck in the format without having to mulligan lower then 6. If you don't have it painter/oops/belcher/storm/show and tell can just kill you. Karakas is awesome in the meta right now so I would try to get 2 and I would probably drop Tar pit for it.

The biggest concern that I have for your deck is that it has no basics. I feel like you want at least a plains and an island (maybe a swamp too) or you just straight lose to loam-lock or blood moon.

Someone using {Life from the Loam} in conjunction with {Wasteland} to lock you out of non basic lands.
