The deck above is the original version.
The biggest changes are adding Retraction Helix , replacing Omenspeaker with Pain Seer , and having a greater variety of cards.

---

You can use Retraction Helix to protect Agent of the Fates when it is the target of removal.
It has great syngergy with Hidden Strings and Triton Tactics to bounce multiple times.
It can also be used to trigger Inspired.
Cut 3 Dissolve for it.

---

Omenspeaker is great for digging through 2 cards to get what you need next turn.
She is also a good blocker early game.
However, Pain Seer has more synergy with this deck, with support from Hidden Strings, Aqueous Form, Retraction Helix , and Triton Tactics.
He is more aggressive, allowing you to start attacking turn 3.
Forcing your opponent to react to it can eat their removal they would have used on Agent of the Fates .
Sure he can hurt, but we were originally running 2 Duskmantle Seer anyways.

---

Other changes include more diverse creatures and spells:
New creatures (One of each for now): Artisan of Forms , Nightveil Specter, Siren of the Silent Song, and Desecration Demon

• The 2 Duskmantle Seer were cut in favor of the more aggressive Desecration Demon and Nightveil Specter.
• I replaced 1 Deathcult Rogue with Siren of the Silent Song - similar evasion but crippling side-effect.
• Artisan of Forms deserves a place mainboard, so I have 1 of her in place of a Pain Seer
• Replaced 1 Triton Fortune Hunter with Bident of Thassa for more variety, and because Aqueous Form + Bident of Thassa is so good.
• Replaced 2 Mizzium Skin with Boon of Erebos to fit the more aggressive playstyle.
• Replaced 1 Island with Springleaf Drum to safely cast Agent turn 3, and it combines well with Inspired mechanic
