Versus Death, most of the times you are going to be playing vs Zombie decks, in which case Selena's Mark is highly important as you have a good removal for Zombies each turn and you can then clear the Cursed Obelisks which is one of the main Win Conditions in Zombie Deck!
Animal Bond is also a viable choice as you can put a lot of pressure for the 1/1 Zombies while also maintaining the board!
Versus Mage, you might be confused why Selena's Mark is probably better than animal bond. Mages are either Full Control or Tempo. Against Tempo, you need to have Selena's Mark to get rid of Ward, once you get rid of Ward in important minions then you can Canopy Barrage or Lightning Strike and just have the board for you! Otherwise you cannot trade the board, as mage is always going to clear your board with Spells while also playing minions. Now, as for Control? You can clear the All Seeing Spire without having to waste bigger spells in low hp cards, if no such cards are played, you just go for more board in order to get favour (our deck has no draw so it is dependant on favour big time)!
Versus Nature, you don't need Selena's Mark as Nature won't be playing any low hp cards and even if he is also Aggro - you are going to want to compete with minions for the board. You need to go wide so he cannot hit Canopy Barrage or other spells in big hp minions, so that is also a bonus when he has to deal with a 1/2 Confused Badger!
Versus War, most of the times War decks will be having protected in their deck and if not they will be playing early low hp minions. In either case Selena's Mark is a huge gainer...breaking protected without getting damaged and just using a 2 mana Hero Power is huge! All that while also healing which is also very important when facing Slayer War
Versus Light, once again Light is the same as War - you are either facing a Zoo Light or Order Light. In each case Selena's Mark is super good, getting rid of protected minions or low hp minions will be a big help against both decks! Especially when playing against Zoo Light Selena's is the best pick!
Versus Deception, I think Deception goes without saying - Hidden loses to Selena's Mark! Hidden creatures have a big disadvantage against Selena's Mark!
As you might have noticed I haven't put an alternative Hero Power in some Gods, that's because I don't think there is a choice in picking - Selena's is the only way to go!
