This is a deck idea I've been having since the banning of Gitaxian Probe and Golgari Grave-Troll durning the Jan 9th ban announcement. With those two cards no longer in modern the format may start to see a slower meta. Unless everyone starts playing Goryo's Vengeance decks.
This version of Delver I thought of is a Blue, Black, Red, and White build. Much of it is in line with the Grixis Delver lists. We have 11 creatures, 12 sorcery, 16 instances, and 21 land for a 60 card deck.
I know Censor hasn't been released yet, but it seems like a very versatile card. I'm thinking a 2/2/2 split of the three premier two Mana counterspells is the best.

In my opinion, Censor doesn't seem great in a deck with path to exile.
