1) The deck has 5 cost cards in the Market and 3 of the power cards are Monuments to give me even more stuff to do with excess power. The only card I might replace in there is Sack the City. But, it would be for Crystallize, which also costs 5. MAYBE I would go down to 27, but I doubt it.
2) It's more like 9 dudes if Champion of Wisdom gets Time activated (pretty common) and if you count Cirso in the Market.
3) Auralian is awful for this deck. This isn't a midrange deck trying to ramp to 6-7 power. This is a very tempo-heavy aggressive deck that wants to win as fast as possible. A 1/4 for 3 is an incredibly weak statline for that strategy. Jennev is way better. Higher attack and Aegis more than make up for the "worse" options (and they aren't much worse to be honest), especially when Jennev is getting Berserk off of Dusk Raider. A 1/4 with Berserk is a joke. Auralian is fine in an actual midrange deck, which this isn't.
4) Diplomatic Seal is still an amazing card. You don't HAVE to get influence off of it. Even as a "colorless" power, it's fine especially since it's never depleted. But, I am thinking about changing them to just Sigils or Waystones though. If it means I get the same amount of chance to hit my 2 and 3 drops on time while increasing the chance of fully activating Champion of Wisdom, then I'm all for it. Haven't done the numbers yet though.
4 (5?) I could see going down to 2 or outright cutting Xenan Initiation since the only units worth putting it on are Derry, Dawnwalker and Champion.
Still 60% winrate in Masters. The deck could probably be improved, but it's still doing fine.
