Notes:
Delver build ive been working on. Revolves around {delver of secrets} (obviously) as well as {guttersnipe} and {judge's familiar}, which is good for a 1/1 flyer for 1 as well as a good counterspell if they tap out on an X spell.

I need ideas and suggestions on some good Gatecrash cards that would go well in here.

I was really disappointed by this.. I hoped someone had found a good UB delver build ): ...other than that..looks good!!! ..aside from the title..

Mikefrompluto

Ah crud. I just realized it is not titled appropriately :(

Fixed it.

Much better! I like the deck overall.. But I'm weary on the {rapid hybridization} since you have no good way of dealing with the mutant .. (No restos) and it kinda rapes all your creatures..

I'd say just take out those for unsummon..

I strongly feel this list prefers a searing spear over mizzium mortar. And probably dissipates too, over essence scatter. Just feel like you get stuck with creature counter an you need to counter a removal to save the delver.

Mikefrompluto

Ill definitely consider and try some of these suggestions. Personally I like {rapid hybridization} to make their fatties more manageable. But I guess it is more of a SB card considering human decks is still a thing. Im also considering going Grixis for some more removal and to take advantage of some of the Dimir cards.

It's good in modern for sure lol rakdos charm is so crucial. I honestly feel like American delver might be decent? Two of the best threats in the game in geist and delver, the best sweepers along with a way to save your delver with boros charm and kill all their stuff. 4 delver 4 resto 4 snapcasters. 22 lands and 24of the best instants and sorceries with 2 runechsnters pikes. I feel like it could be strong.

Mikefrompluto

Im toying with grixis and American right now. American can quite expensive with snaps and geists, but I feel like it could port over to modern/legacy much easier.

Plus, if I went that route, delver could get his probes, snags, and ponders back.

If only ponder wasn't banned

You could even play Reckoner if you can't get geists

Not banned in legacy 😜

{Boros reckoner} is a little less mana specific than geist. That isn't a bad idea.

You could then run like a one of harvest pyre along with the pikes and then just thought scour yourself all day haha
