**will finish the sideboard later, not too sure on the numbers of spells, eg Spell snare, Electrolyze. Also not sure if 20 is enough to reliably flip delver. I think the ooze is a useful addition and has better synergy with snappy than {Grim Lavamancer}.
Any feedback and input is always appreciated! :) Only card I'm missing from this list is x1 Cryptic so if anyone has one I'm interested ;) Thnx everyone.
Sweet deck :) im only new to the format but i dont see anything i would change myself. I will keep you posted :)
Maybe add some {Spell Pierce}? Also would probably drop the mountain for another steam vents, since you want to maximize your island count for shackles, and a basic mountain isn't necessary to avoid getting blown out by blood moon.

Ahh, very true, I'll have to look at the mana base and see how it plays. I might drop the mtn all together if 21 is enough.
I'm not sure where to fit spell pierce in, the weakest card might be {Izzet Charm}. There are lots of good counters in blue that I want to play around with, like {Deprive}
Bumping: I added a forked bolt and +1 {Electrolyze}. The removal works really great with the ooze and more spells helps flip delver :) I dropped a land, it functions pretty smoothly at 21.
Still a little unsure about the sideboard. {Combust} {Obstinate Baloth} {Grafdiggers Cage} are options too.
