A Grixis-Delver deck for standard.Exploring a few different Delver builds currently... This is one of them. I really want Delver to be good for the last few months of the format, so, for the next little while, I think I'll be trying my hand at all sorts of Delver. Just because we lost some freebie spells, Ponder, and Vapor snag does not mean we need to lose our very over-powered one drop!Anyways.....It's got quite a bit of removal in it and a few accelerants(Augur of Bolas, Duskmantle Seer, Think Twice, and Jace) It does look to have an issue with Life... Lots of early game, not so much(at all really) mid-late game though....Still a W.I.P. and needs some help... Comments and Suggestions are appreciated!

Rakdos' Return is poopoo. You're better off putting in moar board control.And unless you've had unprecedented success with Ultimate price, I DESPISE that card. I think it's unusable in standard.

What sort of bard control do you think I should put in? And I personally agree with the ultimate price, kind of.... I don't much care for it, but, it's been used against me so many times... I thought I'd give it a try. Why not Rakdos Return?
It looks good but it just looks off; I think you need a stronger early game.Duskmantle is hurts you more than he benefits you. You need some more discard effects to make better use of him. You help combo-decks pick up pieces, aggro decks get more creatures to handle your 1-for-1 removal, and control decks control you easier. When I saw him at first, I thought he was a poor man's Dark Confidant... Exquisite and him work nicely but I don't think it's enough. I see him working wonders with Scry effects, or even with Azorius Charm your opponents 6+drop to the top... but they tend to have powerful abilities, thus the discard power...
Yeah... Honestly, I just really like Duskmantle. But, he clogs the hand a lot in this deck, as well as the Exquisite Bloods.... So, they've been thrown out. However. . . Now I don't have any real mid-late game bombs, just early stuff and spells....
Duskmantle is pretty good (as long as we're talking about the card draw one). Replace Jace with two of them, your curve is low enough where it won't hurt you very much, and that kind of card advantage is always helpful.Mr. Great Destroyer has no idea what he's talking about, cause Rakdos' Return is a very powerful card, and you should definitely keep your 2 mainboard.Ultimate Price is actually a lot better than people give it credit for: it is instant speed removal that can deal with Hellrider and Restoration Angel, that's pretty good.Reckless Walf should not be in here. You need to up your instant/sorcery count a lot to be able to consistently flip Delver.Overall it looks pretty good, I'd add a couple Dimir Charm and Syncopate, I'd put Ultimate Price back, and I'd replace jace with Duskmantle.
Thank you. I had Duskmantle in here to begin with, as a 3 of.... However. . . That was really cloggy. 2 might just be the way to go. I can't find any room for Ultimate price though... Maybe in place of the dreadbores and send them to the sideboard?
I'm no great destroyer! I just thought if you take each well-structured deck, and compare the # of cards that they want to get versus the ones they don't, it's a lot more likely to get one they want. I can definitely see Dimir Charm working like a boss Fateseal-milling. Ooo O_O I just thought of a deadly Esper Duskmantle deck... Dimir Charm a high cost with Duskmantle out. They cast it and you Azorius Charm it.... hehehe :)
