I think you need more instances and sorcerers, you only have ten for a delver deck and if you're using the invisible staplers as a win condition of Mac ten out and add in more swords and maybe some {silver-inlaid dagger}s I'm not really sure what you deck does besides play diverse strong cards

Will also be hard to play Karn with 24 land and no mana ramp.  I would either drop him or add mana ramp cards or 26 land....IMHO.

Agreed!  As awesome as he is, he's too mana intensive to be competitive. Swap him for more instants/Sorceries.

I would not go far to say he is to mana intensive for competive play.  There are some nice U/W control decks out there that make good use of him.  You just need to run 26-27 land and lotsa control spells to by enough time to get him on the field.

Fair enough. I should have said "to mana intensive for an aggro deck."
