Hi! I'm a relatively new player, only having played for about 3 months or so. I've been climbing pretty consistently to masters each month, and this time i'm sharing my beloved creation. If you enjoy it, please make sure to upvote and comment! Any tips are welcome :)
Ever since
Haven Augur came out it was one of my most hyped card, so i built a deck around it and other cards that have high sinergy with spells, such as
The Seedtender and
Devoted Ranger. Cards like
Mirror Image and
Lipa, Witch of the Woods are also very sinergistic. (you can run 4 Lipa if you'd like, might even be optimal but i only have 2 :P).
The deck has a surprisingly high amount of gas thanks to the draw engines such as
Veena's Masterpiece,
First Shipment (which also helps against aggro with lots of reach damage, like mono red or stonescar),
Loyal Hercules which digs through our decks for key pieces (again, i only have 3, so you can try running 4).
Riftfeeder Wasp is interesting, it grabs you power cards once you run out (usually right when you play it). A good trick is to save up an
Advantage to play it right before your you play your power card for the turn, so it comes online as a 5/5. I've been messing around with it, but if you add more Lipa and Hercules you can think about cutting a few of these.
Finally, the market is my personal preference, as this is a tempo deck and i prefer quick and cheap removals, feel free to swap cards around as you please.
Honorable mention to
Grand Excursion, a card that i love and that i'm trying to make work as hard as i can, but i couldn't fit it in this list. It's a little too slow and needs something to back it in order to cast multiple copies of it and cycle through your deck quickly. I'm working on a deck focused entirely around this card and i might post it as soon as i get some decent results :)

Do you think new Sashenka has any place in this deck?
It runs too few units with staying power. The deck really struggles against decks with high amounts of removal. Too many times you are stuck with spells in your hand that require you to have units to use them, but with no units to use them on. I wonder how the deck would run with adding shadow and going heavier on units with Aegis.
When playing your deck I through Haven Augur was insane, and it's a card I definitely want to build around in the future... but your build doesn't have it growing quickly enough AND clearing the threats at the same time. If you do that, you can kill quickly.
I was very underwhelmed by Devoted Ranger. I think it's more of a draft card than constructed. It would get me an extra card, but wasn't a major threat.
Loyal Hercules always seemed like a "win more" card. It could overwhelm when I already had the game well in hand, but it didn't get me anything when I was behind or in a stalemate.
Sashenka, Bound is a suggestion that fits in your current deck & gives you a major threat that must be answered or the board gets out of control fast.
I feel like the only reasons to go with time are Wasp and Masterpiece. Outside of that, there are far superior cards in Shadow & Justice.
As for Sashenka, you can do really ridiculous things with Mirror Image. That and unlike Devoted Ranger, it's a threat by itself. There are a lot of units in the deck that are dependent on being targeted by spells. If you can get units that are great on their own, then when they get targeted by your spells are soul-crushing, the deck becomes more dependable.
