The following information was quoted from
en.wikipedia.org:
Storyline: Mercadian Masques begins where Exodus
ends, with the skyship Weatherlight making a hasty escape from Rath. The
portal takes them to the plane of Mercadia, which is dominated by a
bizarre city on an upside-down mountain. Weatherlight is captured by the
Cho-Arrim, a spiritual people of the plains, and Gerrard and the crew must
negotiate with the city's corrupt politicians to get the ship back and
find a new power source.
Mechanics: Several cards have Alternative Play Costs, in which the
caster may play the spell in a way that doesn't involve a mana cost.
Spellshapers are a class of creatures that have a mana and discard cost to
play useful abilities. These abilities typically resemble popular instants
and sorceries. With a spellshaper, a player can pitch useless cards in
order to Disenchant or Stone Rain turn after turn. The Rebel and Mercenary
creatures have the ability to allow you to search your library for a
creature with that type and a certain mana cost, and put it directly into
play. The enmity spells were overcosted cards that you could play for free
if an opponent were playing with an enemy color.
