It looks like you're trying to kill yourself immediately with {Duskmantle Seer}. Better sources of card advantage that won't kill you: {Augur of Bolas} and {Snapcaster Mage}. {Staff of Nin} as well.

Hilarious.. I really would like to see this deck in action...;) Killed by own Serenity Angel in upkeep...:D

I was thinking about a fourth angel which is what I have now . I have play tested it and it works well with exception of the seer.

I would play less of the angels... You should consider  {Restoration Angel} and  {Snapcaster Mage} and also  {Terminus} is better choice then  {Merciless Eviction}...;)

Anyway why there are  {Sands of Delirium} in this deck?

Don't own jace memory.

Ok what would be the reason of  {Jace, Memory Adept} here? Only wanna understand the deck..;)

Sands has won me most of my matchups. I can beat most other decks with this list. I still have trouble against Aggro though

1 more {Azorius Charm}, maybe {Dramatic Rescue}? Really see no reason this deck shouldn't beat aggro. Got enough draw, removal and other things.

Terminus is not better. Merciless eviction is versatile and still valuable in the mirror match terminus is not. Merciless eviction can destroy artifacts and enchantment something esper is notoriously poor at. And also silences jace tamiyo shenanigans. So in conclusion eviction > terminus

Also it exiles everything... So there
