It looks really fun actually. The only question I have is how well this deck will do if you don't draw Birthing Pod. Would it still be functionable?

[HeyUhhItsRyan]

@azorious4

Good question.

My first build of this deck originally ran only 2 Birthing Pods.

The curve is at such a comfy level that even when you didn't draw a Pod, you'd still be able to function properly. The Pod is simply a faster way to fetch a card you need.

Oh, and what sleeves do you use? What color?

[TheFuzzyShotHD]

So its ok to have two different manas in your deck?

[Reptar0021]

you forgot to mention that thrun cant be countered try to get another thrun, countless times have i found myself being fucked by cancels and vapor snags etc and then BAM thrun changes the game for me against controll decks

[Supergecko100]

you shouldnt have all of those cards that dont have "when this comes into play" or when it leaves play abilities. they just slow down the tempo of the deck.

[DreamerTopia]

This must be the cheap version of a birthing pod.  Because I compared mine I just built and we have like 20 cards the same other than that your totally off.

[TheGear3000]

i fell in love with this deck after it owned my temperd steel

I run a very similar build currently. I found that bringing Venser in and Abusing his bounce ability gets really nasty when you have sun titans, wall of omens, phantasmal images and phyrexian metamorphs in the mix. Some of those chains can get really wicked early game. Nothing better than bouncing a creature to end your turn with a stonehorn dignitary to stall an opponent then sacing on his/her turn to bring back annoying walls.

You should consider to add a couple of Oblivion Rings to you sideboard (maybe taking out 1 beast within and 1 journey to nowhere)

[thewrathofshane]

Some other good cards u might want to consider is Mimic Vat and Ancient Stirrings
