Cut {Daze} and {Temporal Mastery}, they don't do anything to help the deck. I'd add a 4th {Terminus}, and consider adding maybe one more sweeper ({Supreme Verdict}). Also 4 {Swords to Plowshares}.

You really need fetches in this deck, without them your Brainstorm and Top are awful.

If the cheap fetches like {evolving wilds} will let you reset your deck so you increase the odds of a miracle

Check out the bad fetches:
{Bad River}
{Flood Plain}

Come into play tapped but otherwise have all the perks of a fetch.

Others have posted some 'budget' fetches. The point is that this deck absolutely must have shuffle effects. Without them, counter-top is terrible, since you are stuck with the 3 you have, brainstorm is worse, and the deck will suffer overall.

Yeah, I didn't see Cltrn's until just now, so I think with the Evolving Wild type stuff ill have about 12 shuffle lands? Is that a good size?

8-10 seems to be the normal range, but 12 seems fine too.

26 lands is a lot for a miracle deck.

Not exactly budget, but when/if you can, replace the fortresses with {hallowed fountain}s, since flood plain can grab those
