I would say one of the 3 main evasive creatures is a must for the deck. As long as one is in your 75 that should be good.
Inkwell is the best solo creature but can be outraced by non U decks. It's good against any decks with StP.
Archetype is the worst solo creature and usually can't do much by himself, but he makes all of the other creatures 100% better. It's bad if you need speed but it's unvaluable in slower games where you'll get to reanimate at least twice.
Aetherling is mostly focused at beating miracles because it's the most evasive creature ever.
Now even if it's not the perfect silver bullet for a matchup, you'll often side out 1 or 2 of your main creatures and you can usually find one of those to be better. For example, I would rather have an Inkwell against DnT than a Tidespout. It's primary use is decks with Islands but it's less risky than reanimating and losing your creature (to StP or Karakas) if you had no free counterspell on T1 or T2.
