Ah I didn't realize that.

These would be good suggestions except none of the cards you listed are legal in Standard.
Looks like a fun deck idea, though I'd recommend putting in some draw spells so you don't run out of counterspells and you can find your creatures more quickly. Think Twice seems like the best choice for this deck.
Looks cool! With as much mana accel as you have, might be good to have something to spend it on considering you don't have many cards that cost more than 5, something like Primordial Hydra, Soul of the Harvest, or Revenge of the Hunted. I don't feel you need two of Feed the Pack, or three of Parallel Lives. Parellel Lives looks like fun in the deck, but it would be a dead card if you've already played one.
Looks like fun! Considering Think Twice already has flashback and you're using good ol' Snapcaster and Restoration, perhaps you could put in two more Thought Scour and take out two of Think Twice. This is also noticing Thought Scour is your only 1-drop, might help the curve some. Also, perhaps Delver of Secrets would be a good addition for early blocks/beats and later game for a good sac target for Undercity Informer.
You may find Death's Approach to be underwhelming against certain decks that don't run many creatures. If you wanted to keep the excellent -X/-X theme the card gives then Death Wind might be a suitable replacement (or sideboard) option. Also seeing as you already have 8 essentially unblockable creatures, I would drop two of your copies of Rogue's Passage. I like the mana ramp you have with the Shaman and the Lantern. I'd recommend utilizing that quick, heavy mana flow by adding another Mind Grind - such a great card!I like the looks of the deck, seems like a lot of fun!
Thanks for the advice! I've also been wanting to delve into a standard Simic deck of late. I've been playing for years and this is basically my first go at standard, so I'm trying to get up to speed on the meta. I'll be sure to check your decks out!
Yeah I figured it was way too slow. To be honest, I'm not certain I could do a whole lot to actually make this worthy. I might see what can be done with it anyway. Thanks for the excellent suggestions.
Might be good to at least sideboard Reveillark in case they have a well-timed Wrath effect. You may also want to consider cards that return artifacts from your graveyard, such as Mine Excavation, Razor Hippogriff, or Remember the Fallen.I like the deck though, looks like fun!
