I would drop the leaks and add {Counterspell} instead. Way more effective. Especially late game. If they make it that far. Lol

Just a little worried that 8 {U} mana producers isn't enough. Not used to low mana decks. Took me aaaaaaages to perfect Death's Shadow.

Possibly adding {Vault Skirge} not sure what to take out though.

You're running more blue than I am without my {Tolarian Academy}. I don't have problems. Like I said. Its for end game. If it gets there.

{Lotus Petal}s and {Mox opal}s help. I would also throw one more opal in just in case.

Counterspell WILL help you get rid of killer board whipes.

Switch the somber guard with vault Skirge.

Switch the enforcers with {Memnite} or {Ornithopter}.

Also. Running one or two {Veldaken Archmage} is an amazing ramp for tezzeret. Though it is costly, if you have ramp out it helps!!

I would also like to test my {Death's Shadow} deck when I get back from vacation.

Thinking about -1 {Voltic Key}, -1 {Brainstorm}, +2 {Signal Pest}

I would honestly just drop all the keys.

I've had some luck with the keys, but other than being an easy 1 drop I haven't seen a whole lot from them.

Other than that, I like the Mishra's factories, but I only run 17-19 mana. I would keep those defiantly.

So your best bet is drop the keys. Put 2 {Signal Pest}. And add another {Memnite}.
