    It's what I did last night at a tournament against UR Dreadstill:

    Meddling Mage on Dreadnought
    Outdrawing him with Jace
    Gaining life and making a Serra Avatar with Ajani for the win
    Giving Flying to this Serra avatar with Elspeth.


    Those 3 folks passed even if he had his CB and let me won the game easily

    I really liked the deck even If I lost to Mirror.

    Making an Avatar token against Stifle.dec seems risky but I'm sure you had him in check at that time.

    BTW: I felt the (regular LS) mirror was about even if not favorable, due to 3 Vindicates, 2 extra Scullers.
    I'd board like this:
    -3 Standstill
    -3 Edict
    -3 STP
    +4 Mage (on stp)
    +2 Sculler
    +2 Ajani
    +1 Relic

    The only edge they have against us is Crucible+Tolaria West+Academy Ruins.
    All we need to do is stick a Planeswalker and ride him home.

    I was feelling pretty confidant with Mages, Scullers and Plainswalker but he managed to top deck EE and FOW at the wrong moment when I was dominating. Elsepth was a complete game changing threat.

    Against Ugw Thresh, what's your sideboard plan? I felt Relic could be good but didn't know what to side out against.

    Against THAT kind of Thresh version I wouldn't change a thing actually. Speedstill hates on aggro control so badly it's not even funny.
    I'd bring all three Relics in against TA, though.
    EDIT: If you happen to see Grunts G2 it'd be worthwhile to bring in 2 Relics I think. Simply take out 1 Spell Snare (if on the play) and 1 Counterspell. 2 Counterspells if on the draw.

    EDIT:
    I won another local tournament, beating Reanimator, Merfolk and Ugb Fish, IDing with Donner with AggroLoam.
    Jace was MVP all day, partly because Fish and Merfolk underestimated him, though. All in all he probably drew me about 20 Extra cards that day.
