Description
Delirium is a tweak on threshold.[6] It highlights cards that get better if you have four or more card types represented in your graveyard. There are many different kinds of delirium abilities, including activated abilities.
The card types that could show up in your graveyard are artifact, creature, enchantment, instant, land, planeswalker, sorcery, battle and tribal. Supertypes like basic or legendary, and subtypes like Vampire or Equipment don't count. The number of cards doesn't matter, as long as you have four or more card types.
