Delver of Secrets + Instant/Sorcery = Happy Charmbreaker Devils + Instant/Sorcery = Happy What happens when they get together? That's what I'm trying to figure out. Sideboard needs major refinement. Any suggestions would be very welcome.

I think you should drop the cancels because they are worse then dissipates and you don't need that much counterspell. The geistflames and grim lavamancers don't seem to fit into the theme of the deck either. I would throw in some arc trails, stormblood bezerkers, and possibly infernal plunge(this will help get ur devils out faster.

I'm thinking about dropping the Cancel's, in favor of some kind of card draw. Perhaps Gitaxian Probe. As for the Geistflames, they are there as cheap instant damage with the Flashback as a bonus. The Grim Lavamancer's are actually extremely helpful in the deck, not for their damage capacity, but to be able to control the contents of my graveyard. I exile any instant or sorcery that I don't want bouncing back to my hand. If the Charmbreaker hits the board and I'm in desperate need of direct damage, I don't want to be randomly popping a Ponder/etc. back to my hand. I'll exile the Ponder/etc. and another card to ensure that the only possible bounce back is the specific card I want/need. After all, it's much more powerful to say, "Return target Instant or Sorcery" than "Return a random Instant or Sorcery."
Ah I misread the card, yeah I agree the Grim Lavamancers would be good in the deck. However, I still think there are better burn spells for this deck then the geistflames. Even shocks would be better as ideally the devils will be returning these cards from the graveyard to your hand.
I'm thinking about Shock, Incinerate, or something similar as a possible alternative. What I like about Geistflame is that even if I can't get a Lavamancer out (or keep one alive), I still have the capacity to remove it from my graveyard. Also, against another control deck, they'll have to counter it twice. I've also considered something like Vapor Snag to occupy my opponent's mana. I've also considered a sideboard that swings the deck toward land destruction (Pull the Dissipate and Cancel's for Tectonic Rift and Melt Terrain.) Not sure.
