Deck Description

A modern budget delver deck. . .

Shit worth of talking about:
Delver of Secrets: a 1 mana 3/2 flyer is absolutely amazing, and in this deck it gets to shine even more.

Young Pyromancer: great aggro or defense for cheap. You don't risk card advantage when you block one creature with 3 elementals and you can just keep throwing them at the enemy.

Nivix Cyclops: 2 swings and you win. . .

Staggershock: this is DA spell for this deck, it does 4 damage that's fine BUT it makes 2 tokens, 4 damage and gives +6/+0. Now that is value.

Winterflame: let's things get through, and slows down aggro by quite a bit.

How to Play

You play some value creatures that can attack very well and you play spells that will support this. You want to start with a delver, flip him play pyromancer and start casting spells.
Tips vs control or midrange: Mizzium Skin and Mana Leak are your best friends, don't kill creatures unless it's something that will make you lose the game. just burn them and attack as much as you can.
Tips vs aggro: Kill their dudes, if you kill enough of their guys they will die cause cyclops is just waaaaay too good, trade more elementals for 1 of thier dudes and cast a lot of Winterflames.
Tips in a mirror: try to be as aggresive as you can while not letting them be aggresive, you need to shoot down their dudes and protect your own.

My budget decks are supposed to let you have fun! Which is what i think MtG should be about, i try to make these decks as competitive as possible while still leting you to have a blast while playing them. If you can make your friends to spend around 50$ you could buy 2-4(some of my decks are under 10$) of my decks and make the experience even richer! Also don't just copy the whole deck(you can, but if you can improve something DO IT!), if you have a better idea pls let me know, i can't always make the perfect deck and sideboard. Again GL and HF!
