3 psychatog

4 slight of hand

4 daze
4 force of will
2 counterspell

4 duress

1 swamp

sideboard possibilities (there are so many things to choose from)
1 berserk
1 corpse dance
4 leyline of the void
4 engineered plague
1 krosan grip

other things i have seen in the main deck is force spike over daze for the intuition/ ak combo, that way there not setting back their mana.

psychatog seems like he wouldn't play well with tarmogoyf, and seems unnecessary. Nimble mongoose?

I've never seen grow play black over white or red, what made you decide that? Duress is good, but Deed for 2+ gets your own dudes.

The cunning wish engine seems clunky when you want to pack your sideboard in tight.

I have no real proof of this, but it seems like Smother would be really good in Legacy if you are keeping the black splash. Or I guess Ghastly demise gets that done in this deck....but Smother could kill Bob, I s'pose, and it approximates StP for you

But if you aren't too attached to black, I'd play white because of STP and Meddling Mage

nahholmes i really like the list that you posted and think that may just be stronger then what i posted. i wanted to play grow a tog cuz i thought it would be better against combo but counterbalance seems nuts. it may need some tweeking though. i was interested in your newer list if you have it somewhere.
