I'd almost say a {Cavern of Souls} or two to call Wizard.

I'd say you're right.  The only think it wouldn't protect is the Cyclops.

Might I recommend 2 cards as I have been play testing alot of Delver decks. I have found that  {Flames of the Firebrand} and  {Electrickery} are amazing coming in from the bench. I have won alot of games just with those 2 cards coming in and wrecking havoc on all the little 1/1's that seem to show up alot in standard right now.

Like the suggestions.  What do you think can come out of the side for these?

Since I really dont know what the meta game is like where you play I would would go with taking out the  {Psychic Spiral} and maybe 2  {Skullcrack}. I dont know what you have the Psychic Spiral for except for may to fend off mill decks but you should have enough answer's already to out race the mill plan. Same goes with skullcrack. You should have enough draw power and hopefully can reach your 2 skulls before some major life gain happens. Keeping your options open when choosing to play a skullcrack on a centaur gain 3 turn versus a swagtusk or sphinx will determine how important that skullcrack is.

Yeah, I was worried about esper mill decks, but your probably right, I should be able to outrace them.  Even if they mill me I can flash back quite a bit of stuff, plus I have the 2 {Snapcaster Mage}s.

What's your opinion on  {Spell Rupture} in the main in this deck?  If delver flips turn 2 it's basically a  {Mana Leak}.  Also seems good with the cyclops.

Updated with  {Electrickery}, and {Flames of the Firebrand} in the side.

 {Spell Rupture} would be a great addition. I run at least 3 in all of my delver builds. With the cyclops its pretty nice. The spell triggers the cyclops so they be needing to pay 4 extra for that turn 4 or 5 awsome spell.
