I had to read kozilek, forgot he draws cards on cast, not resolution. LED looks a lot better now XD.

Blood/magus moon by itself doesn't stop you, but those decks usually run all the good artifact hate as well.

Is thespian's stage just in there for value? I.e copying ancient tomb? Is vesuva worth a slot?

Like I said, all in all the deck looks super efficient and does what it wants to do as consistently as possible. I imagine a nut hand includes land, sol ring, mana vault, mana crypt and led. Which is only perfect 5. Then you get to draw 7 cards, etc. I just like to try to cover bases. Most of my suggestions go away now that I actually rtfc. Cast triggers are pretty good.

Opt would be much better in the Jace's Ingenuity slot, since it allows you to trigger your miracle casts at instant speed for much less mana.
I realize it says budget, but putting in 1 copy of entreat the angels won't break your wallet. Probably over the 4th vanishment.
Just my thoughts.

Divining top is now banned in legacy, FYI.

Doesn't play wall of swords for flavor purposes, am disappoint.
On a more serious note, you should make room for sun titan since most of your stuff is 3 cmc or less. Also Emeria, the sky ruin is almost always good in creature heavy decks.

No problem. I always like helping people make their friends salty :D.
What is your opinion on this?

Civic saber is good, steel of the godhead and shield of the overall is also worth a mention.

How about hour of promise to find vesuva and dark depths as your "happy little accident"?

If you want your friends to never hang out with you again you could put stasis in the deck and use mana rocks to pay for it. Untapping them with brago and whatnot.
Pentarch ward is a good way to protect brago and draw cards.

Scornful egotist should be on the list. The card is real bad, but was incredibly relevant back in the days when clashing was a mechanic.

The only "Combo" in the deck is attaching triclopeon sight to Zur, then finding stasis and beating the table down with commander damage. It's a reliable strategy albeit a boring one.
Edit* I guess the rip helm combo was included for some reason.

You might want to consider a few basics. Cards like blood moon, back to basics and effects like bane of progress and/or vandalblast exist. Even 5 color decks run 4-10 basics for decks that run blood moon/back to basics effects. Myr retriever and scrap trawler help with vandalblast like effects.
Lions eye diamond seems mediocre in this deck as well. Sure, drawing seven cards after discarding with kozilek is cute, but there's nothing this deck does that wants you to be hellbent, and discarding the other 2-3 cards isn't always worth it since they might be combo pieces that could just win you the game.
It also might be worth it to find a spot for crucible of worlds. Since you're countering spells with kozilek you could just strip mine your opponent(s) out of the game.

All in all the deck looks good and like it combos out as efficiently as possible. You could just say screw it and accept that you get infinitely punished by back to basics and bane of progress effects as per the deck name, all in combo. I also have no idea what to take out for the cards I suggested.

Tanglewire is another great card to blink to keep those counters up. Also parralax wave.
Strionic resonator plus mana rocks gives infinite brago triggers. You can use enchantments like Lightform to poop your deck onto the field this way.

Cursecatcher and vial are the only 1 drops we can justify with mainboard chalice.

So 8 2 drop lords, 4 silvergill, 4 vial, and 4 spreading seas is the core of the deck. And most good merfolk with good etb effects cost 2. For 1 drops we have cursecatcher, which is also part of the core.

Seconded. Abrupt Decay main is real good.

Bitter ordeal over ravager. Make your infinite graveyard loop and cast bitter ordeal to exile your opponent's library.

Also, don't underestimate the karakas-thalia-vial interaction. You get to block, karakas it back to your hand and vial it back in.
Also you can vial in Thalia in response to miracle triggers if they don't respect your mana denial suite.

All the fair match ups are fun and reward pilot competency. Combo is your worst match up as it just boils down to whether or not you can get Thalia into play before they combo.

And? You can activate it at instant speed in response to removal spells. Card is played as a 4 of in 3 different legacy decks.
