I wanted to make a Delver Deck for a while. When I saw Stormchaser Mage in Oath of the Gatewatch I had an idea of where I wanted to go with it: Prowess. I added white for Jeski Charm and Path. I added Mantis Rider because it fit the mana base and could damage the opponent the turn it was cast. I took out a Snapcaster and the Reflector Mages for Lightning Helix. This way I have some life gain (if needed), more burn, and higher chance to flip a delver. I recently added a Blood Crypt to help reduce the amount of life loss from using Surgical Extraction multiple times.
