Please elaborate
In my opinion Needle is better against decks with lot's of removal for creatures (Miracles, UWR Blade-Decks and post board SneakShow with Pyroclasm, although I'm not sure if they board it in against us). Against DnT I would prefer Revoker, but the DnT list I played against, had 4 Ghost Quarters and Leonin Arbiters in addition to the rest of mana denial strategy. So I wasn't sure, maybe at some point I would like to name a Land with Needle.
Against Lands I usually name Thespian Stage, because post board they have removal against Moon and Bridge, so I have another way to interrupt their combo.
I like the split of one Needle and one Revoker (never really needed a second Revoker and virtually you have more Revokers with Recruiter anyway. With Goblin Welder there is another option to rename a Revoker).
