The deck is self explanatory, get out Delraich ASAP (beware of Seal of Removal and Daze). The sideboard depends entirely on what people play near you, this just happens to work well near me with W or U decks everywhere. This deck functions initially as a control deck, until Delraich or Fear creatures hit the board. The single copy Mercs are there as answers for several popular creatures, and are for the most part the most verstile mercenaries. Then start beating your opponent silly
