Path > Swords.

Need more wastelands as well as stifle.

Stoneforge doesn't seem viable in this strategy, in my opinion. It is inherently not aggressive, and both delver and geist wants to be aggressive.

Play Vendilion Clique.

4 tundra
4 flooded strand
4 misty rainforest
4 wasteland
2x mishra's factory

for the manabase

4 Delver
4 Geist
2 snapcaster
2 clique

4 brainstorm
4 daze
4 swords
4 stifle
3 spell pierce
4 ponder
4 force
2 vapor snag

I would play, I think.

Did you mean that Path should become Swords? Because otherwise it's a nonsense.

Well, if you read my suggested list, you would notice that it is SoP over PtE.

Swords >>>> Path
