Secret Plans
The machinations of the Rakshasa are legend. Subtle, sneaky, layered like an onion and just as rank. What hides behind the masks of illusion they weave? What plans are hatching in their wicked, brilliant minds?
Secret Plans is a Blue/Green deck that uses morph creatures, which are cast face down and turn face up, to create a host of different effects.

Game Plan
Early Game
Turns 1-2
Make efficient plays with Obscuring Aether and Broodhatch Nantuko and set up your mid-game. Don't overextend into sweepers if you have a lead.
Mid Game
Turns 3-4
Develop your board while leaving up interaction. This is where the deck's threat-answer flexibility shines — read the matchup and pivot accordingly.
Late Game
Turn 5+
Leverage Brine Elemental and Sagu Mauler to dominate the late game. Resolve your biggest threats and protect them.
