I was wondering which would be better, Dig Through Time or Treasure Cruise ? I think DTT is better overall but I kinda want to run Treasure Cruise because I have the old border one and really like the way it looks. Is DTT better enough that I should run it instead?

Personally I like DTT just because it's an instant where treasure cruise is a sorcery.

You think running both would be too much delve? I’m not really using the graveyard except for Mystic Retrieval .

Treasure Cruise because its flavor in the art is on point with your cmdr

Well you do have several discard to draw spells so I think you could load up your graveyard fast enough for both to be valuable, so I don't see why not.

Ahhhhh griffstick that’s awesome, I didn’t even think of that! I’m gonna leave it in now, I might go ahead and add DTT as well.

What do y’all think about Draconic Intervention ? I kinda like it cause it doesn’t hit my dragons but I’m worried it won’t always wipe the board. My buddy plays Slivers and they get huge with Sliver Legion .

from a value standpoint you can really do well with draconic intervention as long as you have the right stuff in the 'yard. The exile effect on it is awesome to negate death effects too. As far as dealing with stuff that's too big for intervention, there's always cyclonic rift, river's rebuke, Aetherspouts, ect. But yeah, I'm a fan of draconic intervention especially in a dragon theme deck.

Yeah I have Blasphemous Act already. And I got Evacuation standing in for Cyclonic Rift until I get one. Might find a spot for Intervention.

I think Dig Through Time personally.

I think I’m just gonna go with both for now. I really like how Treasure Cruise fits the theme of the deck.

Run both lol. They're both insanely good. Personally I like the instant speed of DTT but the 1 pip on treasure Cruise is super nice too. DTT lets you see more cards but cruise gives you more raw card advantage - haven't looked at your list yet but I assure you they deserve a slot in any blue deck in any format they're legal in if you're going for power.

That’s what I ended up doing. I added Draconic Intervention and the delve spells work with it so well.
