This is a modern Delver deck built to take full advantage of the little bugger. Back in the day, I used to really enjoy Delver in standard. There was a beautiful crossover with the Scars block that allowed for true shenanigans with Mana Leaks, Vapor Snags and Gitaxian Probes that was simply godlike. This deck is basically a tribute deck to what Delver once did and represents some of what it can do in Modern with a mana-efficient, more aggro-oriented package.

Side in hate for specific cards or playstyles. I've considered a Watery Grave with Unburial Rites and a large fatty but haven't playtested it yet.
