Comments and Questions are appreciated! This deck is a work in progress.

Hi everyone! This is a deck I began brewing recently - a type of Bant Delver deck, which I haven't seen much of. Well, this is quite an interesting deck with a lot of choices that may seem odd right off the bat, but trust me, many of them are necessary and/or worth it.

First off is the use of Glittering Wish . It is a sorcery, which flips Delver of Secrets   more often, for one. But more importantly, it can find a ton of cards from the sideboard - Detention Sphere, Kitchen Finks, Loxodon Smiter, Supreme Verdict, Voice of Resurgence... Even Geist of Saint Traft - between the 3 maindeck and 1 in the side, it's as if you are running 7 Geists! Not bad for one of the best creatures in the format.

Beyond that you have typical Delver cards like Remand, Vapor Snag, Gitaxian Probe and the like. White offers you a number of other options like Path to Exile(of course) and Azorius Charm, which I'm testing now.

Birds of Paradise and Noble Hierarch make running 20 lands suck less, and allow the occasional Turn 2 Geist of Saint Traft .

Thank you for checking out my deck, as always suggestions are valued!
