Deck discussion for u/w control(NEED HELP)

First off, more land. 24 is a good number to shoot for. I don't know what kind of budget you're working on, but the ever-present Baneslayer Angels is just too good not to use if you can get your hands on them. Also, take a look at Deft Duelist, she's a great control creature as she's nearly impossible to get rid of.

As for spells, ditch the ice cages, they're third-rate removal at best. You're better off looking to white for your removal (oblivion ring, path to exile, even excommunicate). Journey to nowhere is ok, but there are better options out there. You'll do yourself a favor with fewer creatures (Sierra Angel and Kraken Hatching strike me as good choices to lose) and more counterspells and card-draw spells. Jace, either version depending on your budget, is a great choice and finding room for cancel (maybe in place of unsummon) can really help your versatility. if Jace and Baneslayer are out of budget range for you, Mindspring is a fairly strong draw spell and the angels you have can work fine.

You've got a good start, but it needs some changes to be a really good deck. Best of luck!
