Deck discussion for American Control

Eight counters in the main deck is waaay too much. Personally I don't run more than 5 and spot removal has more value over counters. Chained to the Rocks isn't really needed main decked but I guess you could run it. I run mine in the board. I don't get why Thassa is in here. She gives you the scry option but there are better cards to put in this deck. I'm guessing you have her cause you don't have 4 Jace? Also why isn't Azorius Charm and Izzet Charm in here?

Miscutter Hydra isn't even that much of a threat. So it can't be countered and it has pro blue. Big deal. It doesn't have trample, meaning a 1/1 can chump it. Mistcutter isn't THAT much of a threat. I don't see how aggro decks would tear it up with less counters when mine does just fine. Although aggro decks wont tear your deck up so much if you had 4x Jace, Architect of Thought, 4x Sphinx's Revelation, and add in a 4th Verdict. I have no idea why you have Silence in here. That card is horrible. It has a cool effect but really it doesn't do anything for you at all kinda the same with Street Spasm. Also you have 2x AEtherling and 3x Assemble the Legion along with 2x Elsepth. You don't need 3x Assemble so I'd shave one down, also you could probably shave down an AEtherling. You need more control slots.
