I am very curious to see how reliable this deck runs.
- Charlesmartin (09-Aug-2013 16:38)
  After testing this on cockatrice a bunch, it definitely runs really reliabily. I've won quite a few games, or just made people ragequit, when I get thrun or sigarda out

Curious, why's Kataki/Silent Arbiter in there?
- Charlesmartin (27-May-2013 23:32)
  Kataki is to counter artifact decks, and silent arbiter is to stop lots of creatures attacking, cause I can sac it for lark and then just get it right back because it's power is 1. It seemed like a good combo in my head

    Wouldn't that mean it's perfect sideboard material, not maindeck?
  - - Charlesmartin (28-May-2013 15:12)
      hmmmm that is a good point.
      what would you say is a goof replacement?
    - - Andrew Sowatzke (28-May-2013 16:58)
        A goof replacement would be Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger.

        Honestly, I'd take them out and add one finisher (Elesh is probably the best) and some more removal. Tragic slip is commonly seen in Pod list since Morbid is constantly active (you're always sacrificing things to Pod)
        
        If you wanted a board wipe you could include one Massacre Wurm at the 6-drop slot as well. This is only if you want to add black, so eeeeh it may not be worth it.
        
        If you want to keep it bant colors, you can just use something like oblivion ring. I don't see the need for Viscera Seer either, since it's only in pod decks for infinite combos in Melira decks.

        I like the list where it is, but I don't know how it plays out against other decks cause I've never played pod before :P
