Main Deck (60 cards)

Sideboard (0 cards)

No sideboard found.

The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

Submit a list of cards below to bulk import them all into your sideboard. Post one card per line using a format like "4x Birds of Paradise" or "1 Blaze", you can even enter just the card name by itself like "Wrath of God" for single cards.


Deck Description

U/R delver for return to ravnica. This is going to be big,
bigger than azorius and golgary in my opinion.

This is more of a sort of experiment, I don't actually know what cards go in U/R delver. This is standard, so if you know what the spoilers for izzet are, you can probably guess what these cards are gonna become.

Besides lands, this is basically what my main deck is like. What I'm worried about right now is that I may have a bad curve due to 9 4-drops. In fact, that is the most concerning thing at the moment. I'm thinking more burn.

Another thing that bothers me is That I don't have 200$ to spend on bonfire and snapcaster, and those are probably gonna end up in all of the R/U decks when rtr releases.

Deck discussion for U/R delver

In my opinion, there are not enough spells to reliably flip delver.

There are, but I found in play testing that spellbound is a tad slow for this. When I did get him out, I always seemed to have a pretty good board position by then. That could be replaced.... By more burn!

Not enough spells? It looks like a fine amount to me. Although my advice is maybe throw in a Niv-Mezzet.

ditch the brimstone volley. the only reason to be using it is for its morbid, which you have no real way of triggering that. go for 4 pillar, it got a HUGE boost with RtR. sooooo many of the good creature cards are 2T so its all you will need. and for Izzet decks Mizzium Mortars is a MUST. a Flame slash for 2 mana these days is amazing. Plus having the overload for field wipe is just the cherry on top.

Why you dont have any izzet charms is beyond me. it has probably the best utility of all the charms. get those in for sure.and when/if you get the money obviously get bonfires and snapcasters. also once you get the snapcaster you then should add faerie imposters. 2/1 flying for 1 blue that returns a creature you control to your hand. but is that really a drawback? no you return snapcaster so you can recast making it a positive instead of negitive. with deathrite shaman coming he will spell the death for control decks, graveyard decks, and most importantly, Death of snapcaster. so thats what the imposters are for. With out snapcaster delver decks are sitting ducks. Flipped delver wont win you games anymore with giant ass lol trolls running him over. even with pike equipped your spells will be gone from graveyard and the first strike doesnt do much vs regen, and then that 1toughness gets run thru with trample.

sry for sooo much but ive been doing a ton of reading lately haha would you mind checking out my deck? ofc id ont expect as much feedback xD Cheers!
