Silumgar's command looks good for standard. Unplayable in modern though

It replaces Nightveil specter to be sure. I think Mono U might make a comeback! (at least a little bit) Not having Frostburn or Cloudfin is still a little painful. The fact that it plays nice with Master of Waves on 2 fronts is a plus as well.

Your deck is a disaster. It has no plan, no focus, no clear strategy, and half the cards hate each other.
I disagree, these are fairly distinctly powerful individual effects. I think 4 would be pushing and 5 is perfectly balanced. 4 wouldn't be broken, but it would be a 'pushed' card.
Am I missing something, or is Elemental just not that good outside of (conditional) protection and extreme blueness? Maybe it's the megamorph bringing it down in my eyes.
With all of those zombies in Silumgar's Command you would have thought it would have had some sort of recursion, like to battlefield or hand. For 5 mana a full fledged counter would have been nice, but its current counter mode is pretty nice and it can easily 2 for 1 most of the time.
Elemental isn't exactly Aetherling, but it has some promise, especially in mono blue devotion.
I'm surprised Roast wasn't already a card. Kind of like a Flame Slash that can't hit every creature, but it is certainly decent and kills numerous annoying creatures.

Shorecrasher Elemental is amazing.... Screw off red devotion, here I come Blue Devotion.
The command is kinda crappy to me... I'm not seeing the value in it at 5 mana TBH
Roast is mediocre. Wish is said "or player" but that would be absolutely silly.
I was of the same opinion... then I noticed you can bounce lands. Bouncing a ETBT land could be... annoying. The cost makes playing more than 1-2 prohibited, but I could see it "maybe" replacing 1 downfall.
Spell on the stack? Check.
Creature? Check?
Walker? Check?
Bounce anything else? Check!
It's a pity that the Grixis-color charms we already have are so much better than this, though. I suspect its not playable in Modern and older formats. Seems like a fine card for Standard and EDH, though.
Standard:
UR Ral Combo
Modern:

And monoblue devotion comeback?

But its still over costed. It could cost 4 without any issue.

I am not as excited about these cards today but they seem to be relevant cards.
