I am Looking to perfect the mana base and I am open to criticism/ideas.
The sideboards posted earlier look pretty well rounded. I do own two Day of Judgement which work great with the flash back.
I also have been pondering about that Runechanter's Pike for a while I am not sure if its worth it or if I could sneak it in... maybe ditch a Moorland and a Probe?
I've been very happy with Winds > Honor. Pumping Delver is so much better than I thought, and it saved me on many occasions. It also helps the colours out in the deck, because now I can cut Fiend Hunter for Dungeon Geists. There were some times I wished I had Hunter instead of Geists, but Geists did a whole lot better than Hunter more often and were easier to cast.
I got land screwed a lot, so I'm thinking of cutting something (maybe Travelers?) to up the land count by 2.
I almost want to say cut 1 traveler and 1 o-ring to add in 2 more lands, maybe 1 more plains and 1 more island.
Has running 3 o-rings worked for you? I just figure most delver decks i have seen that use them only run maybe 2, and have a 3rd in the SB

(O_o) .....the face I made the moment I realized that deep down.... I am a mill deck player.
I am using almost the exactly same deck, with the exception of crackling Counterpart instead of Phantasmal Image, and got rocked last night...first was against wolf run, but I got mana screwed so it wasn't the deck's fault..next was against a similar deck, which I lost two 2-1...he had Gideon and Tamiyo, and basically ran the show from there...any sideboard ideas for planeswalkers?
Also rewind is a great addition from the m13 release...you counter a spell, untap the 4 mana you used, and then can flash midnight haunting...good combo

Which card would you cut to add the 4th Haunting?
Maybe 1 Winds?

Just a heads-up, a lot of this deck will be rotating come October. You might want to hold off until then or build something else.
That said, I haven't played much standard in a while, but I haven't added anything from M13.
