If I may interject.
Fish does not win because of the powerlevel of its cards.  Lets face it, it only has a few great cards.  If you want to overpower your opponent before they can do anything, this isn't your deck.  
This deck has 3 goals in mind. (1) Use the attack step for victory. (2) Disrupt your opponent with slight advantages(wasteland, Daze) and powerful advantages(Force and Rod) (3) Draw a good amount of cards to ensure these happen.
Brainstorm doesn't do anything, your cards all pretty much have the same powerlevel.  Some are better vs. others in differant matchups, but that is negated by the fact you are still an aggro deck.  Keeping the other cards in steady supply seems better than being able to guess the card you draw in your draw step is either a land or a creature.  Play Goblins if you like that feeling =/.  
Also, the arguement concerning daze.  It is A M A Z I N G agaisn't a bad opponent, since they walk into all the time.  And it is REALLY A M A Z I N G against good opponents.  It throws off math something fierce, and you can even board it out and people will still play like you have it in hand.  I mean whats better than a free time walk?  None the less once they do play around it, yes it is worthless.  But you have a brain, do the math, if it hurts them to pay 1 more, do it.  Thats what you do, make small stabs at your opponent until they lose.  
With the addition of Jotun Grunt, the demand for more creatures seems to have gone down. I would run no more than 18.  The rest of the cards being some mix of card drawing(standstill, curiosity, or even ninja) and disruption.  One crucible seems good too, I mean you just when if you get it and Strip.
This is just one mans opinion, but I feel strongly this is what fish does thrive on.  Once you step outside of it, you aren't playing fish.  Merely a misnamed, misrepresented aggro deck.  
Hello, and welcome to The Mana Drain. In the future, please avoid using all bold-case text. More attention to grammar would also be appreciated. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. -- TAL
