Deck discussion for Merfolk (Modern)

I need to play against this deck again so I can really see what it's like.

Yeah, it was a bit off kilter last time since I was missing some spreading seas and vapor snags.

That said, I'm constantly tweaking the list by one or two cards at a time. I'm currently debating:
Main:
1x Vapor Snag -> 1x Mana Leak
1x Vapor Snag -> 1x Cavern of Souls
1x Island -> 1x Cavern of Souls
Side:
1x Thassa -> 1x Tidebinder
3x Echoing Truth -> 3x Vapor Snag

Thassa's ok and all, but if I'm in a situation where I need the scry to fuel my action, that tends to mean that the deck has already busted that game. The Echoing Truth vs. Vapor Snag issue really seems to come down to local meta. Vapor Snag is almost always useless, but Echoing Truth is perfect for busting America Tokens.

If not that, then another thought I'm having is:
Main:
2x Kira -> 2x Spellskite
1x Vapor Snag -> 1x Phantasmal Image
1x Master of Waves -> 1x Phantasmal Image
2x Island -> 2x Cavern of Souls
Side:
2x Echoing Truth -> 2x Kira
1x Echoing Truth -> 1x Vapor Snag
1x Thassa -> 1x Chalice of the Void
1x Swan Song -> 1x Chalice of the Void=
2x Swan Song -> 2x Spell Pierce

Agh. I can't even gebin to make suggestions for you here, I've never even dabbled in merfolk, I'll need to see how it plays first. It looks like it's gonna be aggro control but it also combos so it's just really unique.
