Remember, your goal is to fill your deck with instants and sorceries. Utilize a Tempo playstyle by using Delver and Sprite Dragon to quickly fill your graveyard with spell slingers. Haughty Djinn can be used as your finisher. The listed spells are designed to handle all threats in the current meta, and Brainsurge will immediately flip your Delvers. Fetch more spell slingers for Sprite Dragon and keep your hand filled with spells, as this is a Tempo Spell Slinger deck. Don't forget to pay attention to your sideboards.
