I'm a huge fan of Dizo's Office with Sanctum, but losing Privilege of Rank (can't play enough J sigils in 3f) and slower power + influence issues doesn't feel worth it to me.
I also feel unsure about the low amount of card draw, Wisdom and Honor feel like cards I always want to draw so playing less than 4 of each doesn't make a ton of sense to me. I like the idea of re-read, but tacking on 2 power to whatever spell you get back is a big cost. It does sounds quite good with Sanctum, but then again most every spell is good with Sanctum.
I like the multiple merchants, but without any copies of Jotun Hurler or Privilege of Rank I feel like you don't have enough fuel for them.
Lastly, I'm not sold on Stormhalt Knife either. It tends to feel like a gain 5 to me, and since you have Dizo's Office to gain life already I feel like knife isn't super necessary.
All-in-all, I really like the idea of Sanctum with Sites and card draw, and Sanctum + Office is a particularly potent combination. I hope some of my suggestions prove helpful.
Nice list!
Cheers
Re-read is too slow in this meta. Vs aggro you don't want spend 2 mana in this way and aganist Hooru Control without big spells it isn't worth.
3 Ice Bolt and Desecrate to play 4 Slay? Mhh.
How do you win vs Control? I mean no makto or good drops to finish the game. Sanctum can be easily removed.
No Royal Market? Combo decks like this element.
Can explain your choices?
P.s Is the title clickbait? I didn't see your name in the leaderboard. Probably my own mistake!
Now my deck choice:
I think Re-read is a wonderful card in this deck, because you always have a void full of spell and this card is what you want when you need like a removal, mass removal or card advantage. It's also a good combo with sanctum, I've done lot of time Re-read for Re-read for other spell and put 3 or more creature on board with only 1 card.
I prefer a set of 4 Slay 3 desecrate 3 Icebolt because the first doesn't give any type of vantage for enemy and creates a bigger unit with Sanctum. It's the best removal of the game, also if you don't have problem of Sigil screw like this deck.
The best win against Control is the Knife or overwhelm with Sanctum. Control decks like Hooru have only 1 Relic removal and you play 4 Sanctum and 3 Knives.
Royal is very Interesting but you can take in only with the JP Smuggler and Its difficult without creature like in this deck activate the Onslought effect (without it I think lose a lot of power).
I hope I answer all your doubt!
Thanks a lot for suggestion!
Is there any other card that you normally Re-read for? I am guessing Harsh Rule?
Overall I don't like spam my Facebook page, but you can search for TheBergund HS! You will find the rank17 reached with Feln Control :)
Slay isn't a fast spell and It is cc3. (At T3 you want play smuggler) In particular Ice can stop a Palace buff or charge units.
Re-read into Re-read means that you lost 4 mana for 2 2-2...
You should cut it and play more cards to draw.
Not sure it is a good way to win aganist control and you couldn't remove FrostHome.
If the deck is so strong, as you said, you will back to top100 :)

That said, decks should stand on their own merits. I do like reread as a one of
I Explain my choice so thanks again for your comment.
I also hope you can return in Top 100.
Good Luck!
Thanks again!
I am not sure about this build.
I think this the first time you write here.
Keep calm dude ;)
