Open Amb/Forager and get some Silvers, Ironmongers and Hunting Parties. Then once you're overdrawing your deck add a Develop for extra gaining.

If you're opponent somehow isn't getting thin fast enough I'd get a second Amb to snowball him under, but that should be a rare occurrence.

The storyteller/trading post combo looks quite interesting here, even if is risky, and I'm guessing you're pushed towards that on a 5/2 start. If you do try that then you probably still need to prepare the deck a bit (forager/ironmonger/hunting party) before you add the storytellers. Shelters could be trouble for an ambassador deck but embargo will assist the smaller deck a lot.

I'd ignore Storyteller because of all the sources of virtual Coin. You'd hate to lose up coins built up by Market or Ironmonger when you just need a little draw.

A lot depends on what Embargo is placed on, but otherwise I'd open Amb / Forager, buy Ironmongers or Hunting Parties whenever I could, a few Markets and Gold for coin. Doesn't seem too crazy. If Young Witch is a threat I'm not too concerned since there's heavy trashing, but Oracle could be incorporated into an Ironmonger engine pretty easily if need be.

Ask for a recount? I see 12 piles there, including the Bane...
