I would cut the ponders in favor or more think twices. I think you should splash white to run things like oblivion ring.

Maybe two less dragons in favor of more {adaptive automation}

I'd swap out the {Delver of Secrets} for the {Adaptive Automaton}s.  I don't think you're going to get him to flip early with the high creature-to-spell ratio here.  If you can get your hands on one more {Phantasmal Image}, that would be keen!  ;)  Second turn {Lord of the Unreal} into a third turn {Phantasmal Image} makes an untargettable 4/4 that pumps your team.  :D

I disagree. With all the instants or sorceries in this deck, delver of secrets is a big threats. This deck does not need adaptive automations since it is not full tribal, Plus that card doesn't do enough anyways.
This deck seems to model off UW illusions which made it to top 16 in worlds, so I don't suggest making alot of changes to it :)
