Spellheart Chimera doesn't feel right as a 4 of here, with 20 spells 3 or 2 would be better imo.

Cuz aggro decks, especially ones like goblins. The first strike holds the line for a long time. Also he was originally maindecked and I had nothing else I thought of when making the sb.

For competitive SURE but I want to focus this in the sticky and annoying way.
The combo would take space I'm not willing to give up. If melira said can't have counters placed on them i'd totally run her, this way she only helps Kitchen Finks, which while decent just isn't good enough in my eyes.
Any other 2 or 1 drop ideas besides melira and seer?

Yeah, I often make a deck put IN CONSTRUCTION in the description and write the whole thing when it's all done.
Look now, it's done now. Also http://www.mtgvault.com/vaan104/decks/scapeshift-ob-nixilis/ is a really good way to use ob, a really nice take on scapeshift as well.

The thing with bears is that 2/2 creatures for 2 are ALL BEARS cause as you can see they printed A LOT of 2/2 bears for 2, that means that sentinel sliver is a bear, so is hero of iroas, so is walking corpse and so is the elf. The 2 creatures you mentioned are better but are not bears even through Werebear is a bear he is not a 2/2 thereby he is not a bear. Nowadays wizzards seem to break the bear rule often saddly.
(sorry if you already knew what bears are)
ALL HAIL THE MIGHT OF BEARS!
BTW watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GG80UXnD5ho (Friday Nights - Prereleasing on youtube if you don't want to use the link)
it's a friday nights episode, if you don't watch friday nights START WATCHING and watch ALL THE EPISODES, at around 10:15 the bear thing is explained.

Nice one, but i'd suggest running chief of the edge rather than Chief of the Scale. 4 Qarsi High Priest is a bit too much since having more than 1 out won't do you any good cause it costs mana to activate and with 20 lands and at least 1 card hand that won't happen. Also you have 7 sac outlets that cost mana that's way to many. i'd cut 1 Qarsi High Priest for a land. Maybe add 1 more whip and 1 less Valorous Stance cause you don't need it all the time, not all decks run siege rhinos.

If the curve bothers you just play vault skirge, you can play that on turn 1 and paying 2 life isn't that big of a deal.
I understand that cutting a card you love is hard, I try to fit epochrasite into every single deck(seiosly, EVERY SINGLE DECK). But often, almost always I have to cut it.
castigate is much different than utter end, castigate allows you to get rid of things in their hand. So after game 1 or by knowing the deck you are up against you know what to expect and castigate allows you to distrubt the game plan of that deck. Getting rid of an important combo piece or a card that their deck might need or cards your deck doesn't want to go up against is gamechanging(that's why thoughtseize is 20 bucks). It also gets rid of creaures with protection, hexproof, shroud. Allows you to see their hand. And most of all gets rid of cards your deck can't handle like board wipes or combo cards that would kill you. So sb castigate not utter end. It's a black white form of counterspell, preventing the spell from being cast.
And trust me there is always a good card to take.

For bloodgift demon, yes you need to draw in this deck as well but in many games the amout of life you have means that you don't need to draw answers so frequently. Plus palace siege gives you somewhat of a card advantage. But I'd consider sideboarding bloodgift demon over Spectral Procession or battle brawler maybe? it gives you cards and swings for 5 in the air.

You don't need a board wipe like In Garuk's Wake , your lifeagain, Souls of the Faultless, mimic surprise blocks and 8 removal spells are just good enough.
Aslo sb depends on the decks you run up against the most or decks that give you the hardest time. So if you can't beat control for example you want something that beats control like sin collector or castigate or more threats they have to deal with.
