Went bold and head first into some gold queues. I thought one of the tougher matchups was going to be Affinity, but it handles it very well. Deck went 5-1 tonight losing to a deathcloud pox deck. Heavily leaning this list for this weekends PTQ.
I hope to post a video with it before too long.
"BUG Tempo"

Nice list Smitty. Have you tested Telling Time over Serum Visions? It lets you leave Mana Leak mana open on turn 2, and if they don't do anything relevant, you can use it to hopefully flip your Delver.
This is a modern deck I like.
early disruption with very efficient threats.
Nice work in the gold queues!
I think Vendillion is better than nighthawk main, in a format with bolts 2/3 for three with no ETB is a little weak. I also really like Clique end step when they refuse to walk into leak.
I had Clique originally, but the format of zoo and affinity among other creature decks was a little too aggressive for the deck so often I'd have to play control. And in a sense Nighthawk acted like a mini Baneslayer. However, after playing with Geist of Saint Traft last night, I'm convinced that's one of the cards I want to be attacking with in Modern, especially with Elspeth the following turn.
Been looking for a good BUG tempo list. Thanks! Any chance on posting videos or streaming?
Or a list with white if you think it's the place to be.
