I feel like this deck tries to do too much. I'd take it one of two directions.

1. Run nightshade and staticaster as 4 ofs, drop the charms, drop the snapcasters, and add 4 trackers instinct. Maybe drop primal hunter for relentless if you have trouble casting.

2. Drop peddler, staticaster, and arbor elf and add more instants.

There are multiple kinds of midrange, but this deck just tries to be too many, imo. I'd love to be wrong though, if this works for you, feelfree to ignore me completely. :)

3 bonfires may be a bit much. It usually works best as a one or two of...clan defiance may be something to consider replacing one or twoof them with. Its incredibly balanced and in many cases better than bonfire. Excellent build, btw. I'm making a rug midrange that runs a lot like naya and its decks like this that I model my build after.

Boros reckoner or truefire paladin over skyknight legionnaire any day imo.

I'd test it two ways, swapping out azorious charm one way, and dissipate the other. The creature base is solid, messing that up wouldnt really be worth it

I wanted to fit the charms in, but I'm reluctant to take out the spiders. They are one of the best answers to thundermaw, after all

Whispering madness might be a fun way to cycle through the deck for tutors or labratory maniac.

Rapid hybridization. If you have creatures enter before bioman, they don't grow. Use RH on them to make a 3/3 that DOES get biomancers bonus. Combos with undying

Very nice deck. Simic charm may be a nice add. Lets you recast all etb things, and punches through the last bit of damage

Nah not bad at all. I went simic, got a master biomancer, zegana, unexpected results, and biomass mutation, then traded for another zegana, another biomancer, and a breeding pool :D fury is especially nice though

My friend runs an esper spirit deck. Splashing blue for drogskol captain and negates to prevent board wipes is definitely worth it.

Take a look at increasing savagery. Perfect for this deck.

Wayfaring temple trumps scion of the wild. And speaking of him, mercy killing works excellent with him. Its a quick way to double or triple your tokens without rhys.

Ohh, yeah all of the innistrad block is legal until the set after m14, codename 'friends' comes out in octoberish. Also, crusader of odric is kind of a worse wayfaring temple, I'd take out the crusaders and make it a fell set of temples. Gather the townsfolk, cathars crusade, and some mana dorks like avacyns pilgrim would be good adds too if you can find the space. Oh, and definitely 2-4 selesnya charm. That card just does soooo much...

Kessig wolf run, definitely. Not only is it excellent, it fits the theme too

Thraggles seems like more of a sideboard card against aggro in a deck like this. Unsummon is like standard vapor snag, and would be a great addition to trip them up and a good sub for thrag. Talrand is a bit weak also. Id take him out for 2 cyclonic rift. So 4 unsummon, 4 simic charm, and 2 cyclonic rift would be nice. Unfortunately, without ponder and mana leak, I cant see this build being too successful... :( This is probably the best delver rtr attempt I've seen though :)

Eh I tried the closet, navigator just seems better. More triggers, and a formidable evasive body is very good. Plus I can trigger whenever I want to so thraggles can avoid most removal. Thanks for the suggestions though, I really like them! If I ever get bored and make this deck I'll test spectral flight and increasing savagery. Ill head over and check out your decks too :)

I'm glad you like it! If you try it I hope it runs well for you. Definitely pay attention to DJhotenchilada's ideas too when building it, he had some good suggestions. :)
