I have never thought that the Stifle/Wasteland version of UR Delver was that great. Honestly, if you wanted to play Stifle and Wasteland, you should just be playing Canadian Threshold, especially now...

I can say that with DRS and Probe getting banned today that I will be returning to this deck again. I have it on MTGO but rarely play MTGO, and this may make me play the deck on MTGO more often. I'll...
Congrats on your finish! Assuming the version of UR you are referencing is the prowess version with Stormchasers over Pyromancers, the matchup can be tough for Grixis because Grixis is naturally...
Sylvan Library is insane in grindy matchups in general. The long term filtering eventually will turn into virtual card advantage very much like what Sensei's Divining Top did for Counter Top...
Thanks for the report! Congrats on the finish! How have you felt about the deck lately, I haven't played it since Eternal Weekend, and haven't felt to confident in it lately.
For those of you playing Tarmogoyf, how much worse it the Czech Pile matchup with Goyf as opposed than more difficult to answer threats? I have been playing with 4 Delver, 4 Goose, 2 Mandrills, 1 TNN...
I used to board in 1 Smash to Smithereens against Shardless when that was popular and I was playing more UR Delver. However, only 4 artifacts tops is not a great place for Ancient Grudge if the...
@IamHANDSOME Thanks for the discussion on this list. I appreciate the feedback! Although I don't full agree with you on some points I am glad we were able to see both sides of this argument. I do ask...
This is my point exactly. I honestly don't mind cantripping into oblivion with 2 prowess creatures on board. It just means I get to go off again next turn with all the cards in my hand. A lot of...
Honestly, the current prowess oriented versions of UR Delver are somewhat underwhelming to me at the moment. There is an evident problem with those lists in that the creatures are not great alone,...
This is a list I have come to based on my friend's list. There are a few differences and I will explain some of my card choices and why I think those cards are good.
List
Creatures
4 Delver of...
A couple of Wastelands can be devastating for the opponent. Use what you see from Gitaxian Probe to inform your decision on what to hit with Wastelands. I generally like to attack their splash...
I have started working with a good friend of mine on UR Delver trying to develop the deck farther. I could have something new to show off soon.
I have said the same thing several times. I just haven't said it much online, just in person a lot.
Wow, this is awesome! I love the amount of depth, and, clearly you put a ton of effort into this article. A great read, wonderful content, super well done!
I don't think Burn is as bad as you think it is. You have permission to stop some of their burn (Daze in particular being very good early) and you have enough pressure to contest their pressure and...
Hi! I feel that UR Delver is favoured against Death&Taxes. I believe that the number of creatures in Death&Taxes that don't block Stormchaser or Delver combined with the number of burn spells in UR...
I think that Spell Snare is excellent right now. With Czech Pile being a top deck right now, Legacy is flush wit Snapcaster Mage and Baleful Strix, 2 cards that are excellent targets for Spell Snare....
Only 4 Force of Will is not enough to stop combo decks. Also Daze is just one of the best early counterspells.
Daze can be used to counter your own spells to trigger prowess. You can even cast an...
What is the main deck Echoing Truth for? In my opinion that card is pretty bad in the main deck. If you are looking to get rid of Marit Lage I would play Vapor Snag, and probably just in the...
Delving away threshold for Mongoose to play a Mandrills is fine. You now have a 4/4 trampler, which in many matchups is just better than the thresholded Goose, then you will grow the Mongoose back in...
I have done some testing with Chart a Course. It is okay, but it is just too slow. Being a 2 mana sorcery that has you take a turn off of your aggressive plan to draw 2 cards is just not worth it to...
I built and played a list very similar to this one way back in February this year, as I thought that Therapy Grixis Delver was just not good enough in a metagame full of Miracles, Aluren, Food Chain...
2 TNN's are definitely too many in the mainboard. You really only want 1, and you really can only afford to play 1.
As for your question on Reveler vs TNN; I like TNN more than Reveler because you...
I don't play any pingers in the sideboard because all the good pingers are expensive, and Grim Lavamancer isn't what you want in Threshold. I also like that a lot of cheap sweepers deal more than 1...
