Playing with Thada after reading through a few other decks. Heavy evasion with 'combat damage' effects. Merfolk and Rogue themed. Lots of draw effects, low CMC curve, very heavy permanents. Defense largely based on stealing from opponents (grab artifact creatures with Thada Adel, Acquisitor or use enchantments to gain control), Crawlspace ,Propaganda, and Meekstone. Win slowly by chipping away, swinging for big damage with Sturmgeist or a bomb you stole from an opponent, or gaining multiple turns with Wanderwine Prophets.

I really like the idea of Control Magic + Rootwater Shaman (or a similar effect) to steal a creature after attackers are declared, especially with Crawlspace in play.

I intentionally picked low power boosting artifacts and enchantments so that they can be utilized with Meekstone in play without locking your own creatures down.

Initial/loose inspiration from Thada, Collector of your Deck.
