Forum:Spellcounter Deck, please offer input

This deck is built for all around dueling, making it sustainable and easy to use against many kinds of decks. The ace of this deck would be Arcanite Magician, although the deck doesn't specifically revolve around it. I've incorporated a balance of offensive and defensive monsters and effects along with enough monster removal/staples. There are also a few 'twist' cards like De-Synchro and Urgent Tuning to recycle synchros, and cards like Foolish Burial and Hand Destruction to utilize Magical Exemplar's effect by dumping off crucial monsters for special summon. The main problem I am having is that this deck is slower than many other archetypes in the game. I've put in Morphing Jar and such for the sole purpose of hand control but is there anything else I can do to speed it up a bit while keeping the all-around balance purpose of the deck? Also, this deck follows the most recent Advanced list but it's only for fun and not tournaments. Feel free to over any other advice as well.
