Deck Description

My attempt at a blue black tempo deck where you quick get high value creatures (Delver of Secrets and Gurmag Angler) and then protect them with counter spells and removal spells.
I made this out of what I already have, I'm not into going out and just buying a bunch of cards until I know I like the deck enough and want to make it better. Even then, I try and trade before I buy.

How to Play

Some cards I'm thinking of adding:
- Victim of Night (Double black is kind of hard for this deck)
- Distress (same problem)
- More Dispels/Negates/Spell Pierces (I think I have enough counter magic though)
- Stormbound Geist (Push for more fliers)

Deck discussion for UB Pauper Delver/Gurmag

Hmm, this is a lot heavier on creatures than I am used to. Why play Mulldrifter and Faerie Miscreant? Not that it is necessarily wrong to do so (could be, but I have never looked into the numbers behind UB Delver). Mulldrifter I could see in slower metagames, but Faerie Miscreant without Spellstutter Sprite seems very weak in that it has no synergy to exploit.

I got only one copy of Spellstutter Sprite, so I'd need to get a few more. I threw Mulldrifter because I know it's a commonly used card in pauper (but I'm not really familiar with how to build pauper; I'm stilling getting into it.)
Thanks for the input!

Stream of thought.
It could replace thought scour.
You miss the draw but can save what you don't want to see in the grave.
