I have heard from many sides that the Delver of Secrets   version of Grixis is not as good as other Grixis versions like control. I for myself always fell for that little Human Wizard. I love how he most often does some bad lab-tech work and transforms due to an horrible lab accidient. Unfortunately does he also very often do excellent work and refuses to flip.

However do I refuse to change my Grixis Deck into a shell without this little helper since he can fly one to victory. Becoming accompanied by his big friends like Tasigur, the Banana King and the Zombie-Fish Gurmag the Deck becomes a fast and threat-fireing Powerhouse.

It is a lot of fun to add play action using your graveyard with the Delve Creatures (Tasigur, the Golden Fang, Gurmag Angler) or with your Snapcaster Mage and the addition of Kolaghan's Command.
