I just price checked this deck and it would actually cost you $350 to build from scratch.  Makes me happy I traded for majority

Nice decklist! Haha I'm trying to make this deck at the moment but I'm missing 2 phantasmal images, snapcasters, and dungeon geists. Can anyone give insight as to possible budget alternatives for these slots? Like would it work to substitute invisible stalker for snapcaster?

I would personally just run Spirit tribal, straight up.

4x ponder and 4x snapcaster, and all the other sorc/instants, he flips 95% of the time

So, no lands then. It's a good card, provided you build the entire deck around it.

What is nice about delver is that it forces opponent to deal with it whereas they can kind of choose when to do so with doomed traveler. Doomed traveler has advantage against sweepers though.
