The deck is meant to be playable as is, after rotation

and snapcaster mages would make it unplayable? Its a two drop that you could bounce any spell from graveyard with flashback.... have no counters in hand and a massive spell coming your way? Snapcaster for 2 and Render Silent for 3 more. Not that big of a deal to fend off especially considering they can't cast any more spells after Render Silent resolves. Just my opinion. Snapcasters really do add a bit of control.

Actually...yes. It would make it unplayable after rotation, as my comment said

Friend.. do you know what post rotation means? I've tried to include it in every one of my comments here. In October, all Innistrad block cards will be illegal in Standard. The only sets that will be legal are RtR, GC, DGM, and M14. Then Theros will come next. Since both Snapcaster and Resto Angel will be from a previous set, it will be illegal post rotation, and therefore will be unplayable in Standard.

Friend.... do you not realize that you have 5 months until then? geez. That's still 5 months of playing an epic deck. And yes I do know what post rotation means. Chances are I've been playing this game far longer than you have. And the advice I gave was very wise advice. The cards are still standard. Yes, they will no longer be standard soon, but that is still a few months out. If you were to tap into any of these cards that are STILL legal for a few more months you could tweak your deck a whole lot better. Besides Boros Reckoner, you really have no mono colored cards. You risk the fact that you might not be able to cast any of your cards if the right mana doesn't show up. Yes, you have quite a few dual lands and have some guildgates (which literally suck). But there are other lands you could add.... but they fall in the "post rotation" and probably aren't what you are looking for in the least bit. Good luck, and good day.

And for references, I have been playing since Arabian Nights. But, I'll leave you be as I know nothing about this game apparently. Come talk to me if/when you win your tournaments.
