An additional small note is that the same logic applies that applies to surgical extraction also applies to pitching needle. however all advantages/disadvantages from this thought process are...

It seems that delver would be good in this deck, whenever I was thinking about brewing this deck I was thinking something like this for a creature base

4x delver
4x swift spear
4x young pyro ...

Monastery monk seems like it could be push a very aggressive UWR delver deck. Maybe something like this where you never really run out of gas and young pyro or monetary monk can create a huge board...

You seem light on removal with a total of 2 removal spells have you considered innocent blood to help kill early delvers and goyf's as well as gain a little ground against sneak and show.

While force may have a very high penetration in the meta, there is at least a valid reason most people want it. Keeping degenerate combo in check is a valid enough reason. Cutting brainstorm would...

I specifically avoided probes actually. The reason for this is between 4 ponder 4 brainstorm and 3 treasure cruise, you will start cantripping into cantrips. I wanted a few more "real" cards in my...

So while everyone here was in a fuss about howling mandrills, myself included, I decided to test out treasure cruise. The card is really really good, from my limited testing. The problem is I had to...

Thoughtseize and toxic deluge already drain your life and dark confidant plus jace and force and several 3 drops seems bad. Furthermore ancestral visions and jace out CA most other decks.

Stifle waste daze are very very important I wouldn't play without them. Each one makes the other better.
I don't think the deck would work without it. I'm not familiar with the 14 land list however

I think mandrills is playable perhaps even good. Why don't we compare what match ups each is better in?

Sneak and show
Mandrills, a 4/4 beats a 3/3 pretty simple, if I'm aware I'm playing them I...

He plays well with probe, and even pretty well with thought scour given it's a spell that doesn't cost you a card.
1-2 pyromancer can fill those 12th and 13th creature slots, if you're on the...

Dig through time seems very very good in a deck like sneak and show.
I imagine that it will see a decent amount of play as 1-2 of, as it provides a lot of resillancy at little cost. It's a very...

The only similar card counterbalance doesn't hit is tomb stalker, and if counterbalance + top is on field this is more likely to resolve then just about everything else in your deck.

You would need a chalice on 6 to stop howling mondrells. So no they aren't effected equally

Given that we are talking about delve cards, does anyone think ether of the 2 new delve draw spells are worth it here?
Once again they conflict pretty hard with mongoose, but 1 mana draw 3's are...

The good thing about him is he allows us to push the aggro role better. You can realistically cast him before turn 3 if you need to 2 turns before goose is threshed normally and he very effectively...

No more so then goyf or goose. In fact against grave hate I would say this is better because once it's down you don't care about grave hate anymore.

I could see howling mongrel see play but the biggest issue I have is that it is so anti-synergistic with goose. Often goose is not threshed till 4 or 5 and if you delve 4-5 cards out of the grave to...

Perhaps but in a deck like sneak and show it doesn't appear to have a draw back. Play show and tell it gets forced, sneak attack gets dazed. Play this try again.

I'm betting this card sees play in...

Now I'm not a fan but I will to play devils advocate and explain.
By making it a sorcery speed tap mechanic you switch the options from attack or block+activate to attack or block or activate....

Have you noticed the difference between 4 and 3 goose or does TNN fill that slot adequately enough

I haven't played bant it's a deck I've always looked at but it always feels like it tries to split the difference between UWR delver and some variants of blade. So I was just kind of spitballing. ...

The first thing I notice about your list is that deathrite and Heirach are both 4 ofs. Having 8 dorks seems like a bit much I feel like you can cut 1-2 of them to free up space. Also the one of edric...

I've been rocking 1 TNN in the main for about a 2 months and have had very few issues with the mana cost, with just 2 cards that have cmc 3 I don't imagine it would be a problem. Some post board...

This is a very good combo 101 I would definitely show a new combo player , in the future I would like to see an article about combo, post-board. Where the matches get fun
