Reading Wrexial, the Risen Deep my first thought was mill to abuse his ability. I was just going to pass him over because that sounded boring but then I read "Kraken". I then actually realized what he's meant for; Ublockable Sea-Monster Bounce with Discard.

My favorite interaction is either Slinn Voda, the Rising Deep or Whelming Wave then throwing down either Windfall or Whispering Madness. Getting that discard train removes plenty of problem creatures and probably gets some Wrexial value in the graveyard.

There are plenty of ways to take advantage of islandwalk to get the beats in. With cards to turn it on like Magical Hack and Quicksilver Fountain it's pretty easy to get going. The mana base is molded to work better with islandwalk by being mostly basic islands.

I don't think this decks wants counter spells because it's going for that battlecruiser style win. It definitely is hardcore jank and does not fit the 75% theory. I still would love to get some feedback and recommendations on some sick includes.
