Wouldnt lavamancer hurt you since a fair amount of your cards serve a purpose from the grave?

Maybe drop 1? Go to 4 vengevines since multiples in your GY are only more awesomeness?

I was about to say that. Instead of Lavamancer maybe {Lotleth Troll}?

EDIT:Just noticed they were already in there

Since I'm using fetch lands and dredging it puts them non useable lands to work when they hit the graveyard.

I have 4 in the list :)

Theres always Jarad!

Eh on second thought i guess 2 lavamancers is just fine, its all personal preference and like you said youd be able to squeeze some good damage out of him almost for certain

My friend has a deck kind of like this and he has  {Grisly Salvage} but it's more of a personal preference

I love {lotleth troll} and I am very surprised he does not see more play in tier 1 eternal formats.

Would Lilly be any good in here? Her discard effect seems really one sided.

I think Lily is more synergistic than the pod.  Lily is more proactive with erring creatures from your hand to the GY.  The pod is definitely effective too but I think it would be interesting to see how the deck runs with switching each of those cards out and trying running it both ways.

{stinkweed imp} over {shambling shell}

I like shambling shell because it is a zombie, so I can play gravecrawler when he's out.

Its also just much better for beats

Added lily and took out birthing pod. Since there are so many 2 drops and very little 3 drops it didn't do as much as it could.

Yea I think that is wise....I think Lily will let you cheat out vengevine faster than pod in this deck
