Warning: Very draw dependent. You can win some games very easily, while others you get screwed by RNG and end up feeling bummed out.

I am very thankful for all of the feedback and support!

update: Replaced 1 Ethereal Conjurer with 1Spellbender as it seems there needs to be a bit more consistency with secret draws and 2 Ethereal Conjurers seem a bit too slow

Shoutout to kiwiinbacon for this showcase!

Overview: This deck is all about using your secrets to fake out your opponents . If you are able to use your secrets in the correct way, you will be able to force your opponent into playing into them, allowing you gain a huge advantage.

 

Mulligan

Try to mulligan for Kabal Lackey, Babbling Book, or any secret.

Cards

Babbling Book: good one drop, can give you useful spells as well as secrets 

Kabal Lackey: great card to play along with secrets, also turn one playable with a secret in hand

Mana Wyrm: great turn one card. Very powerful when combined with secrets or other early spells

Frostbolt: Versatile card, can use for early removal, or save for face

 Medivh's Valet: Solid two drop, even without a secret in play, can be saved for midgame with a secret in play, for removal or face damage

Arcane Intellect: This deck runs out of cards in hand fast, so this is one of the only ways to replenish your hand, only use on turns 5+, as you cannot afford to play this and skip turn 3

Counterspell: Great secret, try to put pressure on the board to force your opponent to play a removal spell, only for them to realize that you have this in play

Mirror Entity: Probably the best secret to play in conjunction with Kabal Lackey, or Kirin Tor Mage. Pretty simple, just hope that your opponent doesn't play around it

Potion of Polymorph: Similar to Mirror Entity, this card can be very drastic to your opponent if they play into it. Only play on turn 3+, as you do not normally want to polymorph 1 or 2 drops

Ethereal Arcanist: If you have a secret in play when you play this card, it becomes a "must kill" for your opponent, or it forces them to play into your secret in order to halt this card's ability

Fireball: Solid removal, or face damage. Preferably face, as you normally kill your opponent with burst damage from your spells

Ethereal Conjurer: Solid 5 drop. Has a decent body and you can get a variety of useful spells from it for many different situations

Kabal Crystal Runner: One of the biggest minions on the deck, is very good even if you have played only 1 secret so far, as it would be a 5/5 that costs 4

Pyroblast: Great finisher. Normally you will not be able to kill your opponent without the aid of spells, and this is the most powerful in the deck. Make sure you use it when you have minions on the board as well

Azure Drake: Solid 5 drop, gives spell damage which is very helpful for your spells, as well as card draw, which is needed in this type of aggressive deck.

Ice Block: Decent by itself, can get great value when used with Medivh's ValetEthereal Arcanist, or Kabal Crystal Runner

Spellbender: Protects your minions who are on the board. Also can't be baited with The Coin
