This is Youtuber AjemanCinnajob's deck, just totally love it and am currently building it so I figured I should share it, maybe get some suggestions.  The SB had two Voices in it and I don't want to splash 50 bucks out on each, so what do you all think could take its place?

For sideboard I'd do this:
-1  {Naturalize}
-2  {Voice of Resurgence} (since you mentioned you don't want to drop money on them, which is understandable.)

+2  {Sundering Growth} (it's a better naturalize, you have a chance to populate your  {Advent of the Wurm} token too!)
+1  {Jace, Architect of Thought} (the cards just so good against Aggro, so adding another is always good.

Great point on Sundering Growth, that seems like a no brainier.  I like another Jace, as well, probably Memory Adept since I have two and is a side in against control who can't deal with Planeswalkers, plus those pesky Maze's End decks

 {Faith's Shield} I'd awesome for protection.

It seems pretty standard, just looks like a blast to play. And the {Faith's Shield} callout seems pretty good, but how could I deal with a {Supreme Verdict}?

All-Mana Mania

Idk. Only problem with bant delver. They don't have answers for board wipes. If you have red you could play legions initiative or Boros charm. If you played black golgari charm. So I think bant has the worst answers to board wipes.

I was thinking {Rootborn Defenses}, not sure if it is worth a slot but the populate could be helpful sometimes as well

JordanCirk

Root bound defenses is a good choice. But yeah I like sundering growth here because it makes your destroy artifact/enchantment card still good even if you don't use it on that. 6 mana open at end of opponents turn? Advent, populate. Swing for 10 trample? :p
