You need a way to win. Are you planning on winning with Jace mill every game? Or snapcaster beats? Control is good but at some point if you don't have threats you'll run out of answers.

Keep controlling until jace mills about 20-30 then use the ultimate to make them draw all their cards..oh yeahh I'll probably add shimian specter to help take out dangerous cards

{oblivion ring} locks out your main win condition.

Or if someone {surgical extraction}'s your Jace it's GG.

It does..that why I added 3.. Maybe I can bring a specter out and exile that card and all it's copies..it will take a lot of focus to win and I gotta play everything perfect

I guess my point is just that it's dangerous to have only one way to win. Try adding more mill cards, or {jace's phantasm} may be helpful. {mind sculpt} maybe...

I sure will add more things..I just want to control my opponent for at least 8 turns..I need more draw power and maybe add some ratchet bombs..just something fun to play with

{Negate}, {gitaxian probe}, {thought scour}, {Delver} might be good also.  Give your opponent something to worry about early game.
