spells
4 last gasp
4 putrefy
4 remand
4 moldervine cloak (or compulsive reasearch opinions would be great)

4 trygon predator
4 dimir guildmage
2 plaxmanta
4 dark confidant
4 plaxcaster frogling

the land could be different depending on the cloak/reasearch choice i also need suggestion on how to deal with sky swallower in this format this is the biggest reason im leaning towards cloak over reasearch but let me know your opinions tanks

wouldn't UGb Critical Mass just be better than this? I don't know that you could build a better creature base from blue and green than Mass. If you can, it isn't here. Confidant and Frogling are great, but Guildmage is bad and Predator is really iffy.

To legitimize running a u/g/b creature deck that isn't Mass, I think you need to run a lot of counters to make use of the cheap creatures which give you the ability to leave 2 open more often than Mass does.

I'm thinking something like:
4 Vinelasher Kudzu
4 Dark Confidant
3 Plaxmanta
4 Dryad Sophisticate
4 Coiling Oracle
4 Remand
4 Mana Leak
2 Hinder
3 Putrefy
3 Umezawa's Jitte / 4 Moldervine Cloak (i'm favoring Jitte here because you can play it a turn earlier with counter mana available)
4 Last Gasp
4 Breeding Pool
4 Overgrown Tomb
2 Simic Growth Chamber
1 Dimir Aqueduct
3 Island
2 Forest
1 Swamp

Also, you definitely need something to help your creatures. Research wouldn't be very good in that deck anyway. You certainly can't cut Cloak for it.
