Deck discussion for And This Is A Very Close Third

4 counterspells mainboarded in a rainbow deck that has 25 white mana symbols seems like it could be problematic from a color standpoint, even with abundant growth.

It also has 10 blue sources, usually 12 is the norm for a merfolk deck, so being a 5c deck it's pretty good.
I do believe abundant growth compensate well enough for the two missing islands. The deck does have a real low number of green to support abundant growth though, but the odds of it all might just be present enough for him to have UU when needed.

I think it's a part of a project he has to map the current meta.

He could use the decktag new modern to "link" them.
He's built 3 so far.

Uhm, 20 lands? And why not lean into Utopia Sprawl as well as, or instead of Abundant Growth?

If it's a testdeck there's probably a primer where the cards are discussed.
