More {Spreading Seas}. You need 3 but not four.  (mabye)

Cavern of Souls is just lackluster in this type of deck. It stops a turn one island and running anymore than 5 non basics is weak for the speed of Mono U Merfolk since I don't run Thirst for Knowledge.

Running 3 main board isn't as great as it sounds. They are too weak in a lot of games and could clog my hand up more with less tempo based cards. I only side in four against UWR Control, Tron and Scapeshift mostly. Having two keeps my ability to draw easier and a better chance of top decking a better card as well.

Ever considered {Aquitect's Will}?

DeathlyFoiend

I have. I don't like it as much as Spreading Seas since it doesn't hate against lands.

Can you explain {Oboro, Palace in the Clouds} to me?

DeathlyFoiend

Jund, Liliana, Raven's Crime, Karn Liberated, can help to get double blue with even a Mytavault.

Ever think of running thassa?

DeathlyFoiend

I have. I would rather run Merfolk Sovereign.
