3 Force of Negation to start because it's just very useful in many Game 1 scenarios, could impact almost any matchup in the blind.

Sideboard thoughts: Chalice of the Void doesn't seem to shut down Izzet Prowess as expected. It has proven useful versus Affinity, but there are other cards that help there anyways. This Sideboard may be more heavy-handed toward Izzet Prowess, hopefully the 15 have uses in other match-ups. Tuning more later.

Deck overview ~Weakness is a major lack of interaction for the options we have and are passing on such as Floodpits Drowner and Tishana's Tidebinder. Vodalian Hexcatcher and Force are helpful but not in all matchups.

~Strengths is this has 5 draw engines and 4 can-trips. Simple enough to pilot, sequence your non-flash Merfolk like you should, count on drawing into one of the 11 buffs or 8 island-makers to win races.
