 I play in a primarily creature heavy environment, and this deck is fun to play and pretty effective control. But I would like it to add some more mana and speed. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions short of P9 Smile

Instants and Sorceries (30):
4 Mana Drain
4 Force of Will
3 Counterspells
1 Brainstorm
1 Echoing Truth
1 Fact or Fiction
1 Merchant Scroll
1 Mystical Tutor
1 Ponder
1 Wheel of Fortune
1 Windfall
4 Lightning Bolt
4 Fire/Ice
2 Chain Lightning
1 Electrolyze

Creatures (8):
2 Morphling
2 Sower of Temptation
2 Ophidian
2 Flametongue Kavu

Artifacts (1):
1 Sol Ring

Lands (21):
4 Volcanic Island
3 Flooded Strand
2 Bloodstained Mire
1 Steam Vent
5 Islands
4 Mountains
1 Strip Mine
1 Wasteland

This is the landstill I run sometimes in my meta, and ill show you where I occasionally swap things out for burn:

15 island
4 mishras factory
2 faerie conclave
1 strip mine
1 sol ring
1 mana crypt
3 remand (+3 lightning bolt)
3 negate
4 force of will
3 misdirection (+1 lightning bolt) (+2 electrolyze)
4 standstill
4 impulse
1 ponder
1 brainstorm
3 repeal (+3 fire/ice)
3 man o war
3 serendib efreet
1 meloku the clouded mirror
3 vedalken shackles (+1 fire /ice)

This deck has only lost to the sole tez deck in my meta and generally beats everything else with ease, no matter if i play the red splash or not. The deck can kill fairly fast if you shackles a strong creature or if you just bounce/counter their stuff for a few turns then drop a efreet and a man land. Alternately you cna go for a rush attack with Meloku.
