I play a very similar list to yours and I've found that 1 Trop 1 Bayou is definitely the right green configuration. I think I fetch for Bayou more often than Trop.

That sounds painful.

4 Brainstorm
4 DRS
4 Fatal Push
2 Flusterstorm
1 L. Bolt
4 Ponder
1 Pyroblast
2 Thoughtseize
Does subgame of a subgame of a subgame sound agreeable to you? It sure doesn't to me.
Karn ultimate is usually game over so not close to being the same thing.

Some random thoughts:
-How has the manabase been without basics? Do you miss them in any MU:s?
-I'm at 8 fetch, 8 fetchable atm because I'm paranoid of running out of fetchables.
-I'm having...
This is exactly the type of deck I've been wanting to play for a while now instead of Shardless.
Have you been doing ok with it?
How can the trigger even be forgotten if your opponent deliberately plays StoP to be countered by Chalice? Surely he would remind you of the trigger...
Been testing the countertop version a bit. Feels like the Shardless Bug MU is pretty bad. How would you people approach that MU?

I guess the problem is you really don't want to hit Standstill off Agent while behind on board.

Which is more versatile, Null Rod or Winter Orb?

Has 21 lands been enough for you? I'm not sure I like 5 TNN/Geist, would probably cut at least one. Also there should really be a Karakas somewhere. Otherwise this looks similar to what I'm sporting...
So aftet two long days of magic with a decent chance of winning he just scoops? That's weird.

If I'm going to resolve a 4-mana planeswalker I would rather it be Jace.

I play two because the full set would put too much strain on the manabase. After all we're not tempoing people out with wastelands but rather they're just there to get rid of problematic unbasics...
Glad to see people are still tweaking this list. I've been playing the BOM list for a while and really like it. That being said I'm going to try the basic forest and maybe cut a Lilly for an EE.

Straight U/W you get to play B2B in the sideboard. It's not quite as good ad Blood Moon but it's good. I'd really try to fit the fourth FoW somewhere in the 75. Also I like 3 Pierces with all the...
That's fairly close to a list I was recently playing. I'd say 6 three-drop creatures is more than you want. Maybe cut the two Geists for the fourth FOW and a second Supreme Verdict.
Also I would...
I got into T1.5 around 98'-99' when Saga and Destiny came out. I remember rocking this sweet mono-U control list with Mana Drain, Morphling, Treachery, Powder Keg, Masticore and Ophidian plus...
Don't forget Pierce counters Sneak Attack which is pretty important.

@Arsenal What's your opinion on Back to Basics? Seems good in this shell. Have you tested it?

Would there be any merit to taking this deck straight U/W making the manabase more resilient to Wasteland and at the same time punishing greedier manabases with maindeck Back to Basics?
I was...
I got to do some testing yesterday:
- U/R Delver: Definately a good matchup. I think both games ended with Jace and Lilli on my side with like 10 life give or take and opponents hand empty.
-...
I'm brewing a BUG deck to play in a ~100 player tournament a few weeks from now.
This is what I have in mind:
2x Snapcaster Mage
1x Vendilion Clique
4x Fow
4x Brainstorm
2x Counterspell
