In regards to the decklist, usually before a deck is posted you need to do a bit of a writeup on what the deck wants to do, how it's played, good/bad matchups. You can't just post a decklist and expect it to be fixed for you, we need a little more than that. The decklist looks to me like it's screaming for drains - yo're running 4 Nev's Disk and just lands to cast it? Just coming from someone who likes control decks, but I've never played Landstill before.

Thanks Wild, sorry for the mis hap in protocol.  Its Damned if you Damned if you don't.  I normally just post "what do you think about this card for this deck?"  the response is normally what is the deck list, so I thought I would post the question, then immediately post the deck.

I don't disagree it screams for drains.

The deck is supposed to win  Wink  (LOL).  The deck is supposed to dominate control decks by being superior in the counter match up, and then able to deal with there threats; Tendrils - Stifle, DarkSteel Col - swords.  2nd it should be able to weather the weenie matchup - mostly with disk.  The deck counters, deals with threats efficiently and with wishes deals with all decks.

*edit*

to my decklist, I would like to add 3 teferi's response main and 1 board -2 Misdirections, -1 twin cast. 

Also if you notice with out drains I took out Fact or Fiction, is there another draw card to play if drains go in or should I with standstill's?

Thanks for a quick reply.

Off the top of my head, FoF is awesome draw, almost unbeatable. Twincast seems very meh, but don't take my word for it.
