With the Thought Scours it should be just fine. You could also add a couple Mishra's Bauble to make Delirium easier and make your Goyfs bigger

Im not so sure about Bauble, but I can check Flayer out.

The deck has been doing well in testing and small events
January 9, 2017 1:23 a.m.
Grim Flayer would really look good here.
But awesome deck, anyway! +1

Kinda sucks one of your driver cards got banned.
However now you are able to explore a slower format and not have to worry as much about the aggro-combo decks probe pushed over the top.

Apakakuta I may just have to adapt and use Street Wraith in lieu of Gitaxian Probe. However, it is unfortunate that they banned an engine inhere, but on the other hand...Gnaw to the Bone gets more life gain. What do you think?
January 10, 2017 11:59 a.m.
Potentially Gnaw to the Bone gets better sure but have you considered slightly worse versions of Gitaxian Probe such as Peek?
Or perhaps other cycling cards like Architects of Will? Also helps delirium for Grim Flayer

The point is that it is a free draw card that goes into the grave yard on Turn 1--with a fetch land and Thought Scour. The reason Gitaxian Probe is great is because it costs . It can be one or, for free, by paying life--all while keeping mana open to still do your actual Turn 1.
Those cards are good, but they are not a free draw spell and Street Wraith can be done at End of Turn, while also being "free." If I pay a it may as well be for Serum Visions, wouldn't you agree.

I like Street Wraith replacing Gitaxian Probe as it's a super easy way to get a creature in your yard for Grim Flayer and Tarmogoyf

Wraith seems like a good replacement. I have been considering Dark Confidant as a 3 of. I am testing him now. In place of Gurmag Angler and Grim Flayer.

Bauble over Wraith is the correct choice so you have a 6th card type in the deck. Also lets you know if you want to mill or draw the card on top of your library with Thought Scour

I agree but I think the deck wants more copies of Tarmogoyf and Grim Flayer if it wants to go hard on delirium.

Ummmm, you're missing out one one HUGE card: Fatal Push!! Seriously, you need to find space in here for it.
January 10, 2017 10:28 p.m.
edit: You have it already. Sorry, i didn't see it!
January 10, 2017 10:29 p.m.
I would argue it's worth going 4x, especially if you add Mishra's Bauble.

Hello. You should have about 24 lands, you are not able to effectively cast your spells with only 20 lands bro, even if you love all of other cards in this deck :-)
January 12, 2017 1:40 a.m.
Or am I false ? I saw all the sultai controls playing 24 lands ..

KaiserChronic I don't feel as if I have enough card types, for Grim Flayer.
