Deck Description

Let me just start off with a little story about Quirion Dryad. Once upon a time Quirion Dryad used to one the best creatures in Extended.. yes even better than Tarmogoyf, and in some cases i would use the Dryad over the goyf. Goyf is good, i have no argument that Goyf is a phenominal card, but Dryad rewards you for simply casting a spell and she reqards you fast...Now in standard dryad has the perfect time to be used, as long as New phyrexia is in, Quirion dryad will be a good card.

right now because of all the phyrexian mana cards, getting Quirion Dryad to be a real threat to be a real threat really fast is not a hard task. On average the turn i get to untap with Dryad she will be a 4/4 or 5/5. combined with Delver and Talrand this deck gets silly after a few turns. yes I am aware the deck is running 19 lands which is way under Par for standard decks, but its the correct number with all the cards i can pay 2 life for.

all the cards besides the dryad and Image are Wizards which is a good synergy with Cavern of souls.
The sideboard is pretty, broad yet able to take care of situations when it needs too.

I love hearing what people have to say on this site and lemme know what i may be missing and could improve on.

Deck discussion for Type 2 Delver Dryad

Think twice Wouk be a pretty good card given its instant speed and flashback capabilities in addition to the counters it would add

think twice was in the original main board as a 3 of. but the more i tweaked and played, 5 mana for 2 cards is pretty mediocre in this deck. with the dryad being out turn 2 or 3, i need to draw 2 cards cheaply. And for 1 blue to thought scour and 2 life for Gtaxian probe if so needed, are just better than Think Twice.
