First time ever building standard! Yeah😃
Tips for sideboard appreciated.

Why not {nightshade peddler} and {cloudshift} to change your bindings, and {joint assault}

ditch the lumberknot... they'd kill spell galore anythig paired with it.

I'd check your mana curve here. Standard is really fast!
Most running creature deks  have 8 one drops, then less of twos, less of threes ext, ext.  (unless you ramp the first few turns, {rampant growth},{birds of paradise})
The idea is every turn you have something to play. With this line up nothing really starts happening until turn four : / 

I'd suggest either running cheaper spells like {fog} instead of {clinging mists} and work out the creature curve. More like.

8 one drops
6 two drops
4 three drops
2/4 5cmc or higher. (pick you favs)

How's the new deck?
I fixed some stuff and noticed a major weakness to flying so ({gravity well} isn't standard😔) I added some {geist trappers}
