That is not the point of Selkie. The point is that you have more cards that control decks must deal with right away, or lose the game fast.
It is obviously too slow in a fast meta, but can work in a...

The list is geared towards this meta: http://www.mtggoldfish.com/metagame/legacy#online

I like the genereal idea behind more cantrips, and I can even get behind 2 Vines because the card is really clunky at times, especially with Inkmoth.
But I don't think it makes any sense to add 4...

Based on my experience, I would have to say Dark Maverick is the scariest on that list. The combination of Wasteland, StP, Abrupt Decay, AND Stoneforge/Jitte, plus Zealous Persecution and what not...

That does sound interesting. What's his reasoning for Preordain over Ponder?

I don't subscribe, but judging from the Facebook comments he has made a variant Infect deck with Living Wish. This is something I have also considered. Basically move 1 Inkmoth to the sideboard, and...

He can't attack ;-)

Ripple is for countering any removal spell/effect on our creature, or phasing out a troublesome permanent such as Chalice, or Needle on Inkmoth.

How did Surgical help you, exactly? I see no mention of it in any of your games.

Hey, that is my secret tech. ;-)
It is obviously not a very powerful effect (except against Marit Lage token) but the flexibility of the card is above anything else, acting as either protection or...

If 12post is playing instants (Brainstorm/Repeal/Crop Rotation/Moment's Peace): Dispel. Against UW Dispel counters StP, counters, and sometimes Brainstorm/DTT.
You could also try Winter Orb in that...

Teferi's Response could also destroy Jitte.

I too have considered Xantid Swarm, mainly as a way to "force the issue" when attacking (preventing the end of turn StP or whatever).

However, attacking with Xantid plus a poison creature turns...

I have been wondering about Ponder, and why it doesn't seem like a particularly strong option for Infect. The times I have tested with it, I often found myself wanting only 1 of the three cards. When...

The UR matchup is indeed bad, and sometimes it gets even worse after SB, because you have to watch out for random stuff like Electrickery (which is annoying because it dodges Vines) or Blood Moon. If...
