Morphing shenanigans with Master of Pearls and Trail of Mystery!

My first attempt at a Standard deck. Uses Sigiled Starfish and the various other scrying spells to manipulate the top of the library, which then sets you up for efficient use of Mastery of the Unseen and ultimately creates a Master of Pearls ambush for the win.

Other spells are primarily defensive, with countermagic and soft removal such as Reality Shift being the order of the day.

As mentioned above, this is my first ever Standard deck, so suggestions for improvement are welcomed. My only stipulation is that I want the total cost of the deck to be less than 50 (not counting the Windswept Heath, as I already own that), as I'm a poor graduate :)
