Hello, this is my first time here, so I apologize for any mistake.
This is a sort of toolbox deck (Only 11 creatures, commander include), the original commander was Isperia, Supreme Judge; but I change yesterday for Ith, High Arcanist for more "control". Anyways my dreamed commander is Rasputin Dreamweaver but I don't have it. Also Im from Venezuela, so we dont have acces to a lot of cards.
Its a solid start on a nice white blue control build. I personally would put in some more draw for you like Rhystic Study or Mystic Remora. Also might want to think about your land base; if you ever play a deck that packs a Ruination you might be having a bad day after it hits the field. Just some thoughts.
I'd up the land count to about 37-38, Having atleast 10 basics. In two colored decks i generally run close to 20 basics, your mana fixing needs aren't insane and being blown out by non-basic hate isn't cool.
@talencross Yeah, maybe I should try more basic lands, Eiganjo Castle sounds like a good option to be changed, however artifacts lands can be searched with Trinket Mage and Enlightened Tutor in extreme cases.
@crona452 I used to play with more lands, and only with Sol Ring as mana generator, but then I cut some basic land and add more artifacts, maybe I should go back to the previous state.

I've been thinking about the Rhystic Study instead the Presence of the Master , I will try it.
About the lands, maybe I should change all the "duals" lands that enter in the battlefield tapped and put some more basic lands, what you think?
And, again, thank you.
*shrug* You've got a lot of good lands in the deck. You aren't playing green so you're not using the traditional basic land fetch/ramp so you don't really need to use a ton of basics. You might think about cards like Reflecting Pool, Azorius Chancery, Skycloud Expanse, City of Brass, Gemstone Mine, Mirrodin's Core.

Now, some feedback:
@MikeCline83 i thougth about Reflectibng Pool but is not an easy card to find and the only store in my WHOLE city. In the other hand Azorius Chancery and Mirrodin's Core are more slow than my currents lands, even that I really like Gemstone Mine, I dont want to play with lands that deploys; City of Brass is an excellent card, but I already took damage with the Flooded Strand, Adarkar Wastes and Hallowed Fountain. Anyways, thanks for the suggestions and I will try to find a copy of Reflecting Pool.
@talencross Yeah, maybe I should try more basic lands, Eiganjo Castle sounds like a good option to be changed, however artifacts lands can be searched with Trinket Mage and Enlightened Tutor in extreme cases.
@crona452 I used to play with more lands, and only with Sol Ring as mana generator, but then I cut some basic land and add more artifacts, maybe I should go back to the previous state.
And again, thank you all.
