I have a simple question for the very few people that play this deck. How do you ever beat UR Delver?

I have a simple question for the very few people that play this deck. How do you ever beat UR Delver?
Regarding Treasure Cruise, while it has been great for me in testing, it is very slow at times given the number of reactive spells that are in the deck. It works very well when I have a hand full of...
I have considered the Abrupt Decay but I do not use it because the mana is the shakiest part of this deck and I think that a third Decay can cause problems against opponents playing Wasteland. That...
My deck is:
4 Misty Rainforest
4 Scalding Tarn
2 Underground Sea
2 Volcanic Island
3 Tropical Island
4 Force of Will
4 Daze
4 Brainstorm
I think Tarmogoyf is the correct replacement for Mongoose. To be fair, I have not and will not test it with True-Name Nemesis because I believe it is too slow. I've been testing a variation of...
Yeah, I didn't mean to be negative. It is just nice and sometimes entertaining to see all the steps to a natural conclusion. Nice work.
Just wanted to say, it's been hilarious watching you guys spin around in circles after the results of the Grand Prix. Back to square one less a Mongoose adding a True-Name Nemesis with extra Golgari...
Submerge is excellent against Tarmogoyf, Shardless BUG, and Team America. Consider saving your Stifle for Shardless Agent, Ancestral Vision, or Liliana. Consider saving your Bolt for Baleful Strix,...
I'm still testing with Ashiok but I think that it is best saved for a stalled board or a situation where we can protect it. And I agree that milling with Ashiok is like rolling the dice if it doesn't...
This just in, Ashiok can steal Grave Titan. I'm sold.
Lots of proponents of the deck ; ) I'd just like to add that the combination of Abrupt Decay, Deathrite Shaman, Spell Snare, Lightning Bolt, and ALL of the good sideboard cards really gives the deck...
I've been thinking the same lately. I'd start with the Spell Pierce in the main with the Snare moved to board to help with the Show and Tell decks. It's a tough call though because Snare is so good...
Yes, the 4 Noble Hierarch decks have me a little worried ;) Shaman, as powerful as he is, DOES require lands in the graveyard in order to make mana and I don't think that it's fair to assume we'll...
Just to clarify, is LotV = Liliana of the Veil? In the past, I've used LotV as an acronym for Leyline of the Void.
Interesting. I always play against DnT like an aggro deck. I might be doing it wrong. Thanks.
This card, Identity Nemisis, seems like a big deal. I am more of a card player than a deck builder or a metagamer but this seems to me like something worth investigating.
Thank you,

Hey,
You can check against the standings to confirm my game records, but this is what I remember:
Saturday Trial
Round 1: 2-0 against RUG Delver. He played well but waited too long with a...
Thanks Sasan! This is Edman, I just registered ; )
I've been away from the game for about four years and I just started playing again this spring with some prodding (and cards!) from a good...
