And I tried chord, but it is bad for many reasons:
1) No wall of roots
2) It is expensive
3) I have to not attack with goyfs / voices to maximaze its value.
This list plays similarly to Big Zoo with Pod value instead of Planeswalkers, and usually I want to be the aggressor G1. G2 I become the control deck vs other Pod since I have access to better removal and my combo is easier to assemble
I love this list, Brimaz is very important vs anger of the gods game 2 when you can sac a voice, to get a brimaz. The following attack then, the voice token will be huge.
Yeah it seems to play well with voice tokens, but I worry about having a no ETB, 3CMC creature in a pod list. I can understand using nacatl and goyf, because they're very good, aggressive ways to get under counterspells and such, but I worry that hero and brimaz open you up to being somewhat worse against blue decks. When every spell you cast starting T3 or later has an ETB effect, it's hard to lose the value race. If you're on the draw though, not getting value out of ETB effects and limiting your options for immediate pod impact might be detrimental.
It's only two cards though so I can't imagine it makes a huge difference.
And I can definitely get behind domri in place of chord since you have goyfs and nacatls.
Well if they are going to counter the creature, there is no value to the ETB effects anyways, and a lot of blue decks play bolt, so being able to avoid that is very crucial. Yes getting 2 life off of a finks is good but if they have a path they path brimaz or finks, and the 2 life doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things.
How have you been liking the list? I like a lot of things about it; the only card that seems suspect is Brimaz. Seems like it might be slightly better as either a finks or a chord of calling.
