I've been following this deck for a bit, Im looking at sleeving up a variant for my local "League".
Was wondering if you would mind me sleeving up your idea?

No no, not at all - you go right on ahead! But I have one condition: I want your tournament results. I don't know if you're the type to take notes and such, but I would love a report of how this fares in the field. Of course, include any changes you've made, and so forth; you get the idea. These are my terms, and apart from them, I hope you have fun! Good luck! Would that I could test it more, myself, but I rarely have the opportunity.

thuzra Still looking to try & sleeve this for a night at my LGS. Phyrexian Obliterator is damn hard to find. For the moment my "how to hate modern" build is a "Faerie" annoying. Mischief. i'd adore critique.

I would "cruel control" out of the hubs since this isn't what someone looking for a Cruel Ultimatum deck would want to find. Other than that looks like a fun dimir delver list.

How about Rune Snag instead of Mana Leak?It is already better with just 1 in the grave..

Awesome. I was always a fan of extraction control and looking for ways to make it work as far back as ISD. I also put Snap + Surgical together in a Solar Flare deck and pissed a few people off on cockatrice with it. +1

That sounds awesome! I'll have to try that in AllStandards one of these days...

Love it love it love it. I completely can not stand decks like GorfyTwin, Bloom Titan, Jeskai Twin and every other annoying control and super aggro deck. This looks like it completely shuts everyone down. 1+ for building this sickness. Might have to build something like it with my own twist

Aw, thank you! It's a lot of fun, and works pretty well, but like all Delver decks, if they can get something out that you can't deal with you're probably dead.

I really enjoyed your description. It was equal parts informative and irreverent. My favorite. Also, solid decklist. :)

Thanks, wolfging! That means a lot!

I think this deck would benefit from some land destruction spells like Squelch in the mainboard, even against a fetch less matchup, there are still many activated abilities to be countered, Shadow of Doubt is even better in my opinion as it hoses more decks (storm, scapeshift, tron, and chord of calling decks).

Squiggy686the2nd - You're right, of course. It's mostly a question of what to cut. This also comes down to meta decisions; depending on your LGS or local competitive scene, the main deck can be fiddled with to suit your needs. I actually used to have both of those in the main, too... I may have to update it a bit, maybe cut down on some of the 4-ofs. Thanks m8.
