Went to my FNM and didn't do so we cause I planned so much to play aggro and didn't encounter any. I also didn't have any game changing bombs so I added in a few to test. I could really use some suggestions for a cheap late game bomb.

 {Talrand, Sky Summoner} would be an awesome addition to this.

 {Ætherling} = BOMB

I was really thinking about it. I have been meaning to try this card for a long time but I always thought it might be to high costed for a deck that runs 19 lands.

It cost to much. I would love to run it but It will be dead in my hands for to long.

Late game bombs are just that.. Late game bombs. Theyre goin to cost a lot, but its what you asked for. If 4 mana is too high youre extremely limited on bombs, or you need to up your mana

I know I'm still trying to figure this deck out. I'm not sure if bomb is the right word. I just need some way of staying above my opponent. Something that's hard to deal with and will gain me advantage. I seem to have a problem going into late game cause my creature are easily removed and I run out of counters. I'm trying to fit  {Ætherling} and  {Jace, Memory Adept} in but right now my mana is to low.

I ran 2-3 of him in my delver deck when I ran it, ya you might tap out turn 4 but every turn after than he's a game changer.

Ex.

They swing in on their attack step, in response, {Thought Scour} them, draw a card, and chump block with your drake.

Golden.

So Ive updated my deck a little. I thought about what was causing me to lose a majority of my games at my FNM and found that it was my reliance on creatures which are to easily destroyed. So I added an aetherling and to coupe with the creature destruction I brought in some planeswalkers. They are doing an outstanding job. Mostly Chandra with her copy spell ability. There is no better feeling than copying a searing spear. I also bumped the land count so I can be sure to see at least 4 land by turn 4.
