Tried and True High speed affinity, Tried Shrap Blast Build and This Build And Shrap was a Tad too slow to counters and exile effects. Ensoul was a tad clunky and countered, Thoughtseized often.

In a deaths shadow dominated meta, Thoughtseize The Payoffs, Also great for ad naus and Lantern.

2 Whipflare Cleans up Elves, Goblins, Merfolk, Burn, Humans, Fairies, and various token decks.

Ofcourse Grafdiggers Cage to Combat Recursion such as Flashback effects like Snapcaster Mage

2 Wear//Tear vs the mirror with ! ancient grudge( also vs lantern) as well as Stony Silence removal.

2 Stain the mind as a spicy Turn 1 answer to kill storm, Lantern and Ad Nauseum.

Throne of god pharaoh to Ramp Racing strategies against aggro decks and through stony.

Maybe board are cards I have on hand to swap out sideboard pieces in meta changes.
