Pod is like reanimator...you need boss creatures so you can get them out cheap and fast. I see you have a good base (fiend hunter, etc.), but I see no elesh or primeval titan or anything. Just 1 of each would probs be good. Nothing is set in stone for pod decks, but you for sure want some big creatures so you can pod past a 4 drop!

Edit: oh yeah, try gisela. That bitch is CRAZY!! ;)

Yeah IF you draw on turn 1 or turn two 1 of the 4 pods in your entire deck .  You've got to remember sometimes you may never see a single pod and thats when you can tell if your deck is solid or not

I've got 2 sun titans and one prime time in here as well as sigarda. Figured that'd be enough of a beatstick
Ultimately I'd like the main win con to be a chalice.
Either flashing back the elixer or other life gain if needed with {Sun Titan}.
Then flip and hack away with {chalice of death}.

Oh yes for sure, so what about {Somberwald sage}?  For some back up turn 3 fun

There's only one deck that works in and that's a blinking deck with cloud shift ghostly flicker, goldnight redeemer, cathedral sanctifier and restoration angels oh and 4 rhinos to lock down your opponent

Not to rag pn your entire decl here but pod is best utilized in a fatty friendly zone with a toolbox to boot. And if you want to use pod for what it's worth than Phyrexian mana is commonly the best route.
