Information

The deck has problems vs multifaction aggro units. So it runs Equivocate over Annihilate. Vara's Choice isn't a fastspell unfortunately.
The deck has lots of draw, so the card disadvantage doesn't matter. We just need to survive the eary game so we can get to our lifesteal units and ramp our power. Swindle is awesome with 10+ power.

If you are running the shadow merchant in any deck, Sabotage is nessecary to kill unit buffs. Ex Deepforged Plate against the rakano deck, and theres Mantle of Justicein the mono justice deck. Its also good against the praxis deck's Moment of Creation, and Channel the Tempest in the primal fury deck.
You can also ocasionally kill their Vanquish, Feeding Time, Polymorph, Purify.

Made some untested changes to the deck to decrease bad opening hands. Mainly cutting 2 Dark Return from the main deck.

Re: Equivocate over Annihilate... What about Rindra's Choice?
Porkchop Edited Eternal Version: 1.36
Since the deck doesn't have harsh rule, it needs reliable cheap removal to keep up in the early game. Equivocate is the least narrow 2 mana removal spell. Rindra's choice is ever more narrow then annihilate.

My last few runs with the deck haven't gone well. I wouldn't recomend this deck anymore, unless you wan't to have fun with mask. To many awkward draws that don't do anything.

I played a modified version and had two 7-0 (masters) runs in a row, but haven't had a chance to play it much since then.
