Default UW Delver Construction and Sideboarding

Okay, so I have been out of the standard meta for a long, long time, and I finally want to get back into it, and I see UW Delver putting up good results.

I was thinking of some variation of GerryT's list from the recent SCGO.

Deck  
Artifacts
2 Sword of Feast and Famine

Creatures
4 Delver of Secrets
4 Restoration Angel
4 Snapcaster Mage

Instants
2 Dismember
2 Gut Shot
4 Mana Leak
4 Vapor Snag

Legendary Creatures
4 Geist of Saint Traft
Sorceries
4 Gitaxian Probe
4 Ponder

Basic Lands
9 Island
1 Plains

Lands
2 Cavern of Souls
4 Glacial Fortress
2 Moorland Haunt
4 Seachrome Coast
Sideboard:
2 Ratchet Bomb
2 Consecrated Sphinx
4 Phantasmal Image
1 Divine Offering
1 Amass the Components
3 Timely Reinforcements
2 Ghost Quarter

No thought scours? No phyrexian metamorphs? No sword of WaP? See, I don't even know what's good. I can only assume Sword of FaF is for the green aggro and to protect against dismember. I know why he plays 4 Resto Angels over 3, since they are insane in combat, against spot removal, and with Snapcaster.

If someone can explain this deck to me, thanks a ton. Also, how do I sideboard? I know Images are for legendary dudes or pains in the butt (Huntmaster, maybe geralf's messenger?) but, what do I take out? If someone can provide a complete sideboard guide, and why you board that way, thank you so very much. (I don't even know what to do with timely, amass, or sphinx) I guess Ghost Quarter must be for Wolf Run or something.

You should probably ask this question elsewhere, might be easier to find guidance.
